Hi.
We still setting up a wireless bridge between two DWL-2000AP+, but I found a problem related with channels.
Both DLink AP are setup with 191.0.121.x ip address and 255.255.0.0 mask. Both can ping to DNS:172.20.0.227, gateway:191.0.0.1 but can't ping the proxy:191.0.0.118, all this occurrs while AP are in channel 10. If change channel to 5 the ping to proxy are ok, but can't ping DNS1, in this case computer can browse in the internet. I guess i can setup AP with this channel, but if my client need to 'see' dns1 for any case...what should I do? I would like to know if there is a relation between ip address (class B,C..) and the channel number.
Thanks for reply.
 
No there is not.
But there may seem like one if a channel is busy (noisy) for other devices interferring.
