    Conectivity Issue over AP-SOLO Bridge

    I have two AP-Solo setup in bridge mode with propatary bridge enabled.

    The IP addresses of the AP's are on a different subnet (192.x.x.x) to the network that they are providing the bridge for (172.x.x.x).

     For the most part everything seems to run great. Then I started getting complaints from users that they were periodically loosing connection to their citrix server and having to log back in. After much investigating I noticed a problem.

     I set up three continuous pings from the user end of the bridge. One to the AP on this side one to the AP on the other side and one to the Citrix server. The pings to the radios never missed a beat with periodically the pings to the citrix server would fail - then start again. I ended up fo rsome strange reason just setting the radios to the same IP range as the rest of the network and the problem went away.

     Is this a bug or was it something wrong with my setup?

     Is the client end of the Solo WDS bridge set to Client mode? What and where is the gateway and DHCP server? I don't think the bridge is the problem. Citrix is sensitive to a few timeouts in a row. I'd look more at the gateway and its settings. You could give your citrix clients a fixed IP and DNS and see if that helps.

    The Citrix, DNS and gateway are all at the AP end of the link and are local. The clients experiencing problems are at the Client end.

    When the IP addresses were changed (on the radios) the above reported ping issuses stopped and the cirtix issue as well. Will check on if the citrix has a static IP.
