Connection to Access Point Administration Timed Out?

jalil1408
I have 3 interfaces:

External [Public IP]: connected to DSL Modem
Internal [192.168.1.254/24]: connected to local switch 
Guests [192.168.2.254/24]: connected to an Access Point (192.168.2.2/24)

I created 2 Firewall rules (Web Filter and IPS are disabled):
Internal -> Any -> Any.
Guests -> Any -> Internet IPv4, IPv6

And 2 Masquerading rules: 
Internal (network) -> External Interface
Guests (network) -> External Interface 

The problem is that I cannot access the Access Point (192.168.2.2) from a computer on the Internal network (eg. 192.168.1.121), when I try to access http://192.168.2.2/ or telnet 192.168.2.2 I got connection timed out while HTTP and telnet work if I connect the Access Point directly to a computer (eg. 192.168.2.10).

Also the connection has timed out when try to access http://192.168.2.254:4501/

What's going wrong?

    This might help but doesn't solve the root cause.


    What is the root cause?


    What model is the access point? Does it have some kind of security feature, that only allows connections from local network?


    Linksys WRT54G v5.1 with DD-WRT firmware.
