Finally dug up my account details... Anyway, we have a dire need to monitor our network, and for some reason or another, MikroTik's TrafficFlow doesn't want to return the MAC addresses to our Ntop box. We've considered buying a tap, but they're rather pricey. We do have an RB1100 at our disposal tho...

I think we've solved our issues here. The radios remained linked, but WDS simply stops with the error "excessive data loss. sent deauth". It retries a few times, then simply gives up. We're using 20dB-gain grids, but the adapters are a little rough thanks to improvisation. We have two dual...

Now we have another issue. The radios will communicate for a short amount of time (<30 minutes) then simply stop communicating. We can't obtain any information from the logs on either radio, so everything falls back to our old Tranzeos.
Some input would be appreciated.

Unfortunately this method did NOT work. We suffered a network blackout when the new settings were applied, which required a trip up the mountain to fix.

In the mountain use ap bridge mode, AND you should enable the wds in dynamic in this rb. Ever use with the bridge mode ON between ethernet and wlan as ports over the same bridge. In the other site you must use station wds mode. And thats its all... your macs should traspass transparently in both wa...

I work for a WISP in Oregon. We recently replaced our Tranzeo links with two RB600's. However, we can't do authentication because all IP's report the same MAC address (The MAC address of the Ubiquiti SR5 installed on the mountaintop.) The building radio is set for BRIDGE mode and the mountain radio ...
