VLAN between PowerConnect 3324 and 3424
I have been trying to create a VLAN through a PowerConnect 3324 and 3424 stack using the G1 fiber port on both stacks.
I am trying to create a wireless hotspot using the same WAP that the internal LAN users connect. The WAP is fully VLAN capable and I have configured a seperate SSID and assigned it to the new VLAN ID(2). I have a Cisco 2800 series router that the T-1 internet connection comes through. On the Cisco the FE0/0 connects to a Microsoft ISA proxy server. Per customer request I need to completely bypass the proxy server. The ISP has enabled FE0/1 on the Cisco router and addressed it. The WAP connects to the PowerConnect 3324. I have tagged, trunked and assigned the G1 port to the new VLAN. I have also tagged, trunked and assigned the G1 port on the 3424. Because I have to bypass the proxy I also end up bypassing the DHCP server. So I bought a retail layer 3 router to DHCP and NAT. I have tagged and trunked the switch port on the 3424 where this router connects. When I connect my laptop directly to the router I get an IP address and internet access, just like I should. When I try to connect through the WAP I don't get an address. Even when I enter it statically I don't get access. I have gone as far as connecting my laptop directly to the WAP port on the 3324. I still can't get through the VLAN. I have tried putting the WAP port of the 3324 in access, general and trunk mode. I still can't get through. Wirelessly I can connect to the SSID I created(it assigns the generic IP). Also connecting directly to the router I get an address. It seems that I just can't get through the switches on the VLAN. I spent two hours on the phone with Powerconnect tech support to no avail.
Help would be greatly apprecited.
Thanks
