I’m new to MikroTik wireless and I’m trying to discern if I have a configuration issue or a if what I’m trying to do is simply not possible. I will post full configurations as soon as I’m able to get them. I’m not in a position to grab them at them moment.
I’m using AP-Bridge mode on wlan1 (only real wireless interface) to broadcast the default configured SSID. This works as expected. I then add a virtual AP with the name of the SSID I want to connect to. I set the mode to station and add a security profile for WPA2 with the correct pre-shared key and set it to enabled. Last I add a DHCP client to the virtual AP interface.
The commands all go in fine but the DHCP client just sits at trying to obtain an address. I don’t see anything in the MikroTik logs or on the upstream AP about it connecting.
Platform: cAP Lite running 6.37.4
