Asus WL-500gP with WNC CM9 wifi card can't connect in client or client bridge mode

Description (last modified by Seirix)

So I try another test of two models of Asus WL-500gP v1, one is an original with broadcom wifi and EKO broadcom firmware svn11205, set as normal AP. And the second one is with atheros wifi WNC CM9 and your (BrainSlayer?) broadcom atheros firmware from 25-12-08, set as client bridge. Sad to say, that test show same result. I play with setting almost 1 hour, but no luck. It also show that is connected, but if I want behind client side access over wifi to AP router or ping it, it disconnect. So I try it from other side behind AP and I have access over wifi to client router or I can ping it, but if I want access to device behind client side, it disconnect. Don't know what is wrong, so I send dmesg of this two routers, maybe it's help...

i dont know the original firmware of the wla-9000ap, but i have one which runs dd-wrt on it and its connected to another dd-wrt ap (also atheros) and doesnt make any problems. but for sure you can configure alot of things with dd-wrt and some things might not be liked by the airlive device. the WDS AP and WDS STA modes (bridging) should be incompatible with airlive since airlive does only support mac based WDS which uses a completelly different protocol from ours

Replying to Seirix:

I have Asus WL-500gP with changed wifi modul over WNC CM9 Atheros AR5213 802.11a/b/g and BrainSlayer? broadcom atheros firmware from 18-12-08. So If I want to connect Asus WL-500gP as client or client bridge to Airlive WLA-9000AP with original Airlive firmware v1.00e23 in AP mode, it's fail. I try almost every setting (a,b,g modes, without encryptation, with or without turbo mode, atc...) but nothing. It seems like it's connected, I can see signal strength, channel,rate ..., but if I forexample ping Airlive WLA-9000AP, it disconnect and start searching channels again. And if I set Asus WL-500gP as AP and Airlive WLA-9000AP like client, it's connect normal.
