First of all, metal has only one eth connector, how you can connect 3 wires as described to ap4? I would suggest to connect all aps independently and not to play with mesh as it does not seem to be necessary.

"connect all aps independently "
yes that's what i want to do , but still i think i need mesh so all Ap's can act as one , so users don't need to disconnect from ap1 and than connect to Ap 2 if they are in move
most of users will use smart phones .

No. Even caps manager wil not provide such functionality. You live in far future.

Exactly. It was written enough on this forum. There is no "unifi"-like functionality on mikrotik. Use search and read some articles here...
