I have plenty of Unifi Access Point in my network, that’s how I connect to my network wirelessly. There’s a DHCP server on my mikrotik which is used by both wired and those wireless devices. No special settings to separate or distinguish wired and wireless devices, I mean they share the same bridge, network segment and should look the same from mikrotik’s point of view. However, when I run winbox and go to Neighbors, I see my mikrotik only when I connected via ethernet, and the list is empty when I connect via wireless. If I try to connect via MAC manually (type the address in ‘Connect To’ field), it doesn’t work either.
You have something in between your router and your computer which is non-Mikrotik so that’s where you most likely need to look.
I assume it will filter out the packets needed for discovery to work.

If I understand it right, MAC ‘Discovery’ isn’t equal to ‘ability to connect’ via MAC. I can disable Discovery, and still be able to connect via MAC by manually typing it in Winbox. That was just a simple example that both discovery and mac server is enabled in mikrotik. Anyway, I will check APs settings again, thanks for the heads up.
