connect to cAP lite admin

Trying to setup Mikrotik 2011iL-IN with cAP lite. Both have admin interface 192.168.88.1.

Connected to 2011 and configured it to use 192.168.3.x network. cAP lite is connected in bridge mode on port #10 and works fine with default SSID.
How can I connect to it’s admin interface? 192.168.88.1 is not working, can’t connect (while connected to cAP by wifi).
Tried to attach it into another router with network 192.168.0.x - no luck.
Tried to connect to my mac book pro directly using ethernet cable and setting mac’s static address to be 192.168.88.2 - no luck.

I don’t have Windows box around.

Any suggestions?
Thanks!

If I remember right, the cap lite is set up to get a DHCP address isn’t it? I thought it was set up in sort of a classic access point mode. You might try resetting it and seeing if that works.

If not, try mac-telnet. It should be enabled by default as well. Do a /tool mac-scan to find it, and then use /tool mac-telnet to connect.

I got a cap lite from MikroTik at the MUM. If what I said doesn’t work I’ll start it up and set it to default config and let you know how it works.

Yeah, the cAP-lite is just a bridge and it gets a DHCP address. I just confirmed it:

/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridge comment=defconf interface=ether1
add bridge=bridge comment=defconf interface=wlan1
/ip dhcp-client
add comment=defconf dhcp-options=hostname,clientid disabled=no interface=
bridge

So whatever address your 2011 handed to it is the one you connect on. mac-telnet will still work as well.

Thanks, acruhl!

Yes, I found cAP in Neighbors, it still had 192.168.88.1 ip and it’s bridge.
Connected using mac-telnet and enabled DHCP, it got ip in 192.168.3.x network and I could connect to the web admin UI. Perfect!
/ip dhcp-client
add comment=defconf dhcp-options=hostname,clientid disabled=no interface=bridge

P.S. I didn’t mention in original post, but I did try Reset, it didn’t help. I guess static ip and bridge is the default cAP lite config.

P.P.S is there way to paste text into Terminal?

Sorry, missed this reply.

Which terminal are you trying to paste text into? I use a Mac or Linux and it’s pretty simple to do. If you’re using the web terminal, not sure. I don’t really use it.
