i have looked at it. but what i need is a configuration that can enable the powerstation radio to get internet access from the pc acting as a router such that when user login they first see a webpage login page and i can assign more than 200 users.

thanks.

if you have a mikrotik router, you don't need the powerstation anymore. seriously

Hi,

make a simple hotspot with the routerOS server and connect the powerstation as station router, to make NAT of the 200 computers..

HI,

I have no time today to make you the configuration : P


You could search in the wiki.mikrotik.com to make a hotspot. Later use powerstation as station and NAT.


Good Luck!

i did as Ibersystems suggested, i set up the router server and set the powerstation as a station instead of as an access point, but i no longer see the powerstation among my wirelss signals. but when i set it as access point i see it.

what do i do?
and again on my pc that is serving as a router server, i have three lan ports. how do i connect to the PoE of the powerstation radio?

LOL,

then configure the PC as a hotspot and the powerstation in bridge mode...

I suposed that the PC has wireless : P

But I think that 200 users are to many users for this..

Good luck!
