Thank you. This was exactly what I was looking for. Coming from DD-WRT, which is more user friendly, Open WRT is really challenging to setup and I got really frustrated. I followed this video with attention and I finally was able to setup a wifi extender in my Netgear XR500 w/ OpenWRT.
This works without any cables between the routers, thanks a lot! Subbed! But still, what if I want to use LAN ports of that repeater later? Say like, a PC. What to do then?
My solution was to create a static route on the repeater, allowing me to access the lan network and the internet through the LAN ports just as if I had connected through Wi-Fi. Static route: Interface: lan Target: 0.0.0.0 Mask: 0.0.0.0 Gateway: your main router's ip address
I have installed proto relay and rebooted many times but relay bridge never appears as a protocol. I am using a Asus RT-ACRH13 aka rt-ac58u. Are there issues with certain models that don’t allow the bridge protocol?
Thank you! I live in Ukraine, as a result of the attack, our electricity is sometimes cut off, I configured my old router and now it sends me a message in telegram when the electricity appears or disappears! 😇
What if I connect wirelessly to the main router, but I want a cable connection from the access point/repeater whatever? This way LAN ports are totally useless. What if I want to plug in a PC there?
how to connect 2 internet in openwrt . first internet connect to openwrt router using wan port configured dhcp and second internet connect to openwrt router using wireless bridge [wireless repeter].show to wireless SSID like INTERNET 1[ INTERNET CONFIGURED OPENWRT ROUTER USING WAN DHCP] and second SSID like INTERNET 2[INTERNET CONFIGURED OPENWRT WIRELESS BRIDGE] PLEASE HELP ME
In my main router I don't have functionality to fix the channel so how can I proceed here. When my main router channel changes then extended router get disconnected and I have to reconfigure so kindly provide me the solution.
i think you could place it in auto mode at the channel in your client networksetting. Thats just what im thinking but idk if it will work because i dont have that problem here

You gave life to my Dlink Dir 853 from itisalat uae
It was like a waste after moving out of uae
Thank you so much ❤️
Do you need to disable dhcp in the bridge router?
Thank you so much, very straight forward and it had all the steps to do it without having to be connected by a wire. Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much! I got a wireless mesh network working because of your tutorial.
Thank you for your video

are the packages relayd luci-proto-relay necessary for wds repeater (with openwrt 21) to bridge between lan and wwan ? can you just use only lan ?
This works without any cables between the routers, thanks a lot! Subbed! But still, what if I want to use LAN ports of that repeater later? Say like, a PC. What to do then?
My solution was to create a static route on the repeater, allowing me to access the lan network and the internet through the LAN ports just as if I had connected through Wi-Fi.
Static route:
Interface: lan
Target: 0.0.0.0
Mask: 0.0.0.0
Gateway: your main router's ip address
Thank you from Bangladesh.
