5GHz wds mode doesn't work

RouterOS Wireless Networking

Hi,

I have a working 5GHz-turbo wds link:

[admin@MikroTik] > /interface wireless print detail
Flags: X - disabled, R - running
0 R name=“wlan1” mtu=1500 mac-address=00:0X:XX:XX:XX:XX arp=enabled interface-type=Atheros AR5413 mode=ap-bridge ssid=“xxx” frequency=5800
band=5ghz-turbo scan-list=default antenna-mode=ant-a wds-mode=static wds-default-bridge=bridge1 wds-ignore-ssid=no default-authentication=yes
default-forwarding=yes default-ap-tx-limit=0 default-client-tx-limit=0 hide-ssid=no security-profile=default compression=no
and
[admin@Miki] > /interface wireless print detail
Flags: X - disabled, R - running
0 R name=“wlan1” mtu=1500 mac-address=00:0X:XX:XX:XX:XX arp=enabled interface-type=Atheros AR5413 mode=station-wds ssid=“xxx”
frequency=5800 band=5ghz-turbo scan-list=default antenna-mode=ant-a wds-mode=static wds-default-bridge=bridge1 wds-ignore-ssid=no
default-authentication=yes default-forwarding=yes default-ap-tx-limit=0 default-client-tx-limit=0 hide-ssid=no
security-profile=default compression=no

when I change to : /interface wireless set wlan1 band=5ghz
on both side, the link is disconnected and doesn’t link anymore.

Anybody knows why?

regards,

You use wds-mode=static you need to create WDS interface on AP side entering MAC address of wds client or change WDS to dynamic.

Hi,

I’ve already registered the remote MAC address. Why any wds parameter depends on the band?

This has nothing to do with WDS - and you seem to know it.
5800 MHz is not a supported frequency for a 20 MHz channel. Use 5805 instead.

it works, thanks
