First time setting up a wireless bridge. I'm sure I'm missing something stupid.

I have a cable internet connection connected to Charter as my isp.

My cable modem is a Surfboard SB6121

My router is a Synology 1900AC

My bridge consists of two Ligo Wave DLB units in "bridge mode"

I am trying to connect with a laptop running winxp

I am able to surf the internet as usual from the router side. But when I'm connected to the bridge I cannot. I can ping 8.8.8.8 but not Google.com

Please help me. What other troubleshooting steps can I try?

I'd recommend trying the laptop on the POE for the bridge (ipcam POE disconnected) and check for Internet access. A possibility is that you might need a crossover cable between the two POE devices.

Edit: you could also try placing a network switch between the POE injectors.
