I have a network with 3 Mikrotik routers - one that manages the firewall and PPP connection to the internet, and two that provide WiFi APs. I have one AP in the house, and one AP out in the shed. The problem I have is that devices connected to the network via WiFi on the shed AP are accessible from devices (eg phone, laptop) connected on the house AP, but not if I connect my laptop via the shed AP.
I also have a device connected directly to Ethernet on the shed AP router, and this is accessible when the laptop is connected to either AP - it’s just the WiFi devices that don’t appear to be accessible from the same AP on which they are connected.
I’ve provided the two AP configs below - the second one is the problematic one. I should add that I’ve moved one of the device to this house network, and that does seem to work.
One other point in case it’s significant - the two APs are connected via a netgear POE switch, and they don’t go via the firewall (although the firewall also provides the Capsman manager).
Can anyone offer any suggestion as to what would cause this.
Thanks.
