Station <-> SoftAP brigde (not eth)
Posted: Wed Aug 17, 2022 10:19 pm
Has anyone succeeded in creating a bridge between Station and SoftAP? So that devices connected to the SoftAP are transparently integrated into the same subnet as the Station is.
Phone <-> Router <-> ESP_A <-> ESP_B
Station of ESP_A might get an IP 192.168.1.2 from the router and is accessible from my phone using this IP.
Station of ESP_B is connected to SoftAP of ESP_A and gets an IP in the SAME subnet, e.g. 192.168.1.3 AND is, too, accessible from my phone using this IP.
I looked at forward/NAT projects, but this is not quite what I want. The remote ESPs would get their own subnet if I understand it correctly.
