New D-Link bridge problems

[krudeboy51]

Before, I had a problem with the bridge in which when I would try to access the configuration page it would show up an emergency web server. But I fixed that with the file that I downloaded from the first website. Now the problem is that I followed each and every step on the .pdf file "how to set up your radio" but it never connects to the router on bridge mode for some reason, even when I put it on AP mode I never see it with my computer's wifi adapter

Is the frequency of the bridge correct? Not being on 2.4GHz might be your problem.

It is at 2.4 in AP mode. Only in Auto mode it goes to a third option "2.4GHz/5GHz"

You should set up your bridge for bridge mode, not access point mode.

i did though, i went to LAN settings and set a static IP 10.xx.xx.1 and an access point which is our router 10.xx.xx.4, still nothing

Bridge mode is only used at competition (think old bridge). AP mode is for use outside competition (think putting the old router on your robot). The FIRST documentation has been updated and does a good job of explaining everything.

I would use the old bridge but I want to use the new bridge in bridge mode at the competition so that I can hook up the camera to it so I dont have to deal with this problem I get with the robot disconnecting from the driverstation because of some exception error I get on windriver after 5 seconds of being enabled with the camera plugged.

I did not mean to use the old bridge (you have to use the DAP-1522 this year). The references to the old stuff was to give you an example of what the different modes do.

ok I managed to get the bridge working, thanks for all your help. One thing though, when connecting the camera through the bridge, is there anything I have to add to the code or driverstation to get a live feed?
