Disable all router functionality in the wireless device and plug your wireless router's LAN port into your LAN and leave its WAN port disconnected. The same trick can be used to forward IPv6 traffic on a switch/wireless AP not "technically" supporting we're both talking about exactly the same thing. Subnets are layer 3 traffic.Ī wireless AP having an address of 192.168.1.1 WILL (the baseball bat is right here for anyone who says otherwise) forward traffic from a wireless client having an IP of 192.168.2.2 to the wired gateway with an IP of 192.168.2.1. Since there is only one ethernet, there is no need to define it). I'm talking about APs (access points), bridging their wireless section (the little (usually) black or white antenna, technically operating around 2.4GHz, or could be 5Ghz) to their wired section (the vast majority of them being ethernet.
They participate in the connected subnet. What are you talking about? Bridges don't "forward" traffic anywhere. It's a clever way to hide parts of the network, from the network (remember that security through obscurity I've been screaming about?). they will forward everything to pfsense, even when not in the same subnet. They are switches => layer 2 traffic gets processed through them. APs are not routers when bridging the wireless to the wired network. Speaking APs don't have to be in the same subnet as pfsense.
