Hi all. I’m green in networks and Mikrotiks, but I have the two hAP Lite
.
The first one work as a typical Home AP with PPPoE WAN and single AP. (Let it be 192.168.88.1 for a bridge and MyPreciousWiFi_0 for AP.)
I want to set up the second one in the neighbor flat, but:
- I can’t wire that with Ethernet, I have to use Wireless

- I don’t want to make a repeater, it should be a separate AP (MyPrecousWiFi_1), separate network (192.168.89.0/24), own DHCP Server and should use the first hAP as a WAN
I’ve already tried to configure:
- Repeater (using /interface wireless setup-repeater)—but it works very slow and I want to have an isolated network.
- WDS bridge (via adding WDS interfaces and MACs to the address list on both routers) — but there was no Tx/Rx over WDS or (when I configured it with another way) 89.1 did not see 88.1 and vice versa. Of course, I’m doing something wrong

A want to make:

What is the best way to configure routers? Which wireless bridging method is optimal?
I will be glad for the explaining like me five
and any critic of my solutions. I also feel absolutely free with a terminal.
