My question is, how come the DELL's can use the SEC2 WPA profile and work just fine over the more secure WPA algorithm, while the HP's cannot? Both have the same WiFi chipsets but the HP's can only use the SEC1 profile (WEP).

The HP's do not seem to be able to find the DHCP server that the MasterAP points to, so I tried to set the Bridged AP as its own DHCP server, but when this is enabled, the HP's get an IP address but cannot access the network/internet through the bridged connection. Any idea why this is the case? When the HP's are configured with the SEC1 profile, everything works just fine.

I guess there is too much technical information to review for me to get a free response, ey :)

You really did not need to get sarcastic. I was not going to approach this as the thread was not specific enough and confusing. What kind of devices? What device are you using that you can bridge (you using the maybe wrong term) and yet have it act as an AP?

The more detail you give the easier it is for us to help. Also time is valuable and having members have to use that time asking for more details is another reason to shy away from threads.
