Full-duplex transparent wireless bridge [solved]

on question to greg… and others

when we setup up a full duplex link with 4 antenna and 4 radios should or can we play with the TX/RX checkbox of the wireless settings?? or should both the TX/RX should be left enabled??

also can the entire full duplex link be achieved with 4 RB-SXT ???

Hi all. I relatively new to routeros, but I have used this solution to provide a link between two of our companies buildings about 2 miles apart using a DragonWave transmitter and also a Ubiquiti M2. So far it works awesome, and although the DragonWave is a lot faster (400MB/S) it has actually worked well for us and have not noticed any problems with voip or jitter, so I am pleased).

My question though, is that we are needing to connect another building as well, and so I need to have another transparent bridge to that location as well. Is there anything differently in the IP addressing that I will need to do to ensure that the bridge or OSPF will not conflict with the solution I already have in place to the existing building?

Any help or insight would be great, and thanks all who figured this out, it has been a great solution so far :slight_smile:

Mikrotik, DragonWave or any other RF units in this world will work on the industry standard networking protocols.

the only difference will be within their RF communication techniques (which can be proprietary) and frequencies.

you can go ahead an install it as far as you don’t end up giving an already exisiting IP address which can create the most " feared" IP Address Conflict situation :smiley:

Yea. So so I need to make sure that on the second router each interface has another subnet and the EOIP also on a different subnet than on the first router?
