plus a slave interface as an access point:
Code: Select all
/interface wireless
set [ find default-name=wlan1 ] band=2ghz-b/g/n country=netherlands disabled=\
no distance=indoors frequency=2437 frequency-mode=regulatory-domain mode=\
station-pseudobridge radio-name="N0211" security-profile=Client ssid=\
Guest wireless-protocol=802.11
add disabled=no mac-address=E6:8D:8C:E5:8D:AB master-interface=wlan1 mode=\
ap-bridge name=wlan2 security-profile=Accesspoint wds-default-bridge=\
bridge wps-mode=disabled
This works fine when the radio is connected as a client to the Guest network, it makes
its own AP available (in the config it has an SSID but I see this does not appear in the export!)
Client devices can connect to the AP in that case.
However, when the client loses connection to its network, the AP is not available anymore.
There is no difference between disabled state or "searching for network" state.
Is it not possible to configure wireless-rep in such a way that the AP side continues to work
when the client is not connected?
I obtained this config by using "repeater setup" and then tearing down the bridging, maybe when
I had configured it myself I would have set the AP on the master interface and the client on the
slave. Is that possible and will that solve the problem?
