Hi,
I am running an “old” version 3.30 based wireless network with 6 MT Routerboards connected using dedicated radiointerface R52 towards a central “backbone AP” all also equipped with second radiocard for user access.
Backhaul is running Static WDS and works like a charm.
I had to replace one of the units with a new Routerboard running version 5.9 and now we have problems…
I am unable to transport IP packages using the R52 in Station-WDS mode (as I use to on all the other) - however a MAC Telnet works like a charm…
When I set the interface to Station mode, I may alter the entire setup on the main AP and gain IP access to the new wds-station.
Here is the detailed setup for the WDS enabled card - what am I missing? Or is the new 5.x versions simply unable to use a 3.30 AP for WDS backhaul? Incompatibility?
