I would like to create a single link over 2.4G and 5Ghz wifi between two hap ax devices (or hap ac2).
To ensure both wireless links are used together in a single ethernet connection.
I checked our the bonding parameters, but get lost in all the variables.
Having a bonded wifi link should increase the link quality and throughput between two devices.
Aim is then to get a single ethernet connection out on each side.
Anyone has some ideas? Hopefully I get more feedback than on my PPSK backhaul question
No idea if it can be “ported” to your devices, but the “wireless wire” (Cube Pro’s) have the 60 and 5 ghz in bonding and the settings don’t seem that much complex, but it is for failover:
thanks for the link. That was helpful, understand now a bit more about bonding.
Reading further through few articles and documention I found some examples on the Wiki.
Unfortunately very limited, without the Wifi configuration.
The promising thing is, once that EoIP tunnel bonding works, I could imagine I can get my PPSK VLAN’s as well over that tunnel
and get closer to my dream to get with Mikrotik a real AP - RE setup with dual band Wifi backhaul connection! Yahoo!!!
Not sure why would EoIP be required? WiFi interfaces are L2 interfaces already, couldn’t they be directly used as bond members?
The only gothcha I can think of is link-monitoring setting, in this case it would probably have to be “arp” instead of “mii”.
Since such bonding will be entirely software thing, you could use any of supported mode, e.g. balance-rr (which would offer combined throughput at around double the throughput of the slower radio link). The rest of bond modes work well if both/all bond members offer the same throughput which might not be the case in your scenario.
