Hey - I have two WSR-1166DD-WRT routers. One is in the house(Switch set to Router) and then another is in a detached garage and its switch is set to wireless bridge. I had no trouble setting these up about 1 year ago and everything works great. However, the secondary, or slave unit whose function switch is set to "Wireless bridge" is invisible on the network. I can't get to its admin page unless I turn it back to Router mode.
The main router does not "see" it in the status pages and I can't seem to guess an ip address. I've tried scan tools like Finq. While I understand bridging well enough to understand an aspect of bridging is to be seamless, it seems it would also set up a client with an IP to serve up the admin pages if nothing else. I figure I am doing something wrong or there is an easier way to get to the admin page.
Any hints?
Thanks!
