Workgroup bridge timing out

John Blakley · ‎12-10-2008

All,

I have a workgroup bridge with some clients behind it. Everything works until the access point disassociates with the parent overnight when no traffic is seen. I've tried to change the parent's default and max activity-timeout times to 86400, but that didn't help. It went down this morning around 5AM, but then came up around 8:30AM. I assume this is when people are coming into that building. Is there a way to keep this from happening? Do I need to also change the activity-timeout on the WGB-client?

Thanks!

John

why do you want to set it to workgroup bridge , why not root - non-root setup. It would still function the same way.

I didn't think workgroup bridge allowed wireless clients associate to it. I don't want anyone to actually associate to the AP. If I changed it to non-root, wouldn't it allow wireless clients to associate like a normal AP, and why would this be able to resolve my issue?

Thanks!
