EAP245 Connected from Second Port of Another EAP245 Not Working

Model: EAP245  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 5.1.0 Build 20230104

Below picture is my network scenerio;

 

PROBLEM : EAP245 connected directly to PoE Switch is working fine. But the second EAP245 connected via PoE Injector to Port 2 of first EAP245 is not working. I have tried different brands of WAP but same problem. However, if I connect a laptop to Port 2 of first EAP245, it gets IP from DHCP server and internet works just fine.

What may be the possible issue and how to resolve it.. Please help !!

Hi  @Procorp 

 

Is the first EAP245 under defualt config?

Are there any VLAN settings on the network?

 

Normally, we can get internet access from the ETH2 port under default settings.

 

What IP address will the wireless clients connecting to EAP245-2 get? 

 

You mentioned that a PC works with the port; did you use the same cable to test?

 Thank you for your kind response @Vincent-TP 

 

Is the first EAP245 under defualt config?

Yes

 

Are there any VLAN settings on the network?

No all are in default VLAN 1

 

What IP address will the wireless clients connecting to EAP245-2 get? 

The same IP addresses that the EAP245-1 will provide from Netgear's DHCP Server

 

You mentioned that a PC works with the port; did you use the same cable to test?

Yes I have tested with the same cable

 Hi @Procorp 

So the clients will get correct IP addresses but have no Internet?

 

Please use ping tool to ping the following IP addresses in order and let us know the results:

The IP address of EAP245-2;

The IP address of EAP245-2;

The IP address of the main router;

The gateway IP address;

8.8.8.8;

google.com

 

 

One more test you can try:

Swap the connection of the two EAP units and see if the issue comes with the EAP unit, or the location.
