I have recently installed a 5009 with 3 cAP ac access points in my home. I have updated the wireless packages to use wifi-qcom and wifi-qcom-ac, respectively, and gone about setting up the configs as per the Mikrotik docs: https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/display/ROS/WiFi.
The router has mostly got the default/base config applied and is updated to 7.14 (as are the APs). There are a handful of settings I will likely change but for now the default seems to be OK for what I need initially. However, there is a bit of an issue... I am unable to control the access points effectively (at all really).
I have provisioned the the APs by holding the reset button during boot which seemed to make them connect to the router to get their configs. These configs work and I am able to auth and connect to the Internet no problem. However, in the WiFi window (on the router), I see "-- no connection to CAPsMAN, managed locally" and when logged into the AP, I see "managed by CAPsMAN" with addtl wifi info (though not all configs are present/applied).
I am not quite clear on how to get the Router and the cAPs to agree on their management/settings and it seems that while they are able to get their base config, I am unable to modify or control them further. It looks like even though the base config is applied, additional communications between the router and the APs isn't working.
I am wondering if it is related to certs.
I have attached both the router and AP configs here.
Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
