R7800 wireless clients cannot connect to lan clients
Hello,
I have the latest firmware 1.0.2.04 on R7800 and have an issue where my wifi client cannot access servers on lan on the same router. I found suggestions about firmware resets and turning off the router but that doesn't help. It seems that 50% of the traffic gets blackholed somewhere. LAN-LAN works just fine. WiFi-WiFi works good as well. But WiFi-LAN doesn't want to work.. Any ideas?
evel I'm using Kong Mod from myopenrouter.com. It's a straightforward process on how to replace the firmware (just look at the latest article). For VLAN tagging, you'll need to create a VLAN on eth0 (default WAN) interface (Setup->Networking) and assign a newly created port as WAN port on the same page. Once you're online - you can easily do the rest (wifi, services, etc). WIFI->LAN works right away.
Thx, Mansus.

- Seems that there is some progress going on.
I did also provide config, debug logs and so on.
Also mentioned the two threads here.
Responds got quicker these days.I just updated to the new firmware. Everything worked fine for about 5 minutes. I could access my wired NAS from my wireless laptop. I played a music file off of it. Went about doing something else, came back, not working again. Tried multiple resets, still not working.
Not cool.
- Update:
Yesterday I went back from DD WRT to stock and the engineers connected again.
Now I had the chance to show them the things not working.
After that they gathered many debug logs and also changed the debug script on my R7800 to get even more logs.
Let's see when I will get feedback if they found the cause of this strange behaviour.
I will report back here!
