Hi! Im new using Mikrotik and i need to know how to setup a ptp link.
I found help in the forum to configure a AP-bridge as follows:
"Then reset the RB333 back to factory defaults.. and reconfigure as a standard bridge… seems pretty straight forward and simple..
/interface bridge add
/interface bridge port add interface=ether1 bridge=bridge1
/interface bridge port add interface=wlan1 bridge=bridge1
/interface wireless set wlan1 mode=ap-bridge
Set a management IP address to the bridge interface, configure your frequencies/bands/ssids etc, and your done…"
And now im looking for something like that to configure a PTP link… simple and straight.
I will use a RB133 with 1 card at each point…
So thats it… thanks!
That’ll work fine on the AP side, but not on the client side. As you can’t add an client mode interface to a bridge group. You’ll need to use WDS to make it a “real bridge”.
What I do is set up the ap/bridge as normal, but then enable static WDS and dump the wds interface into the bridge group. On the client end, do the same thing.
RJ45 cable with internet -----P1-------5.8Ghz------P2-------> Wireless Customers
At P1 i have a RB133 + 1 card in 5.8Ghz
At P2 i have a RB133 + 2 cards, one card in 5.8Ghz for the ptp and the other card in 2.4Ghz mode as AP.
Im just starting using mikrotik and dont know what to do. Ive found some tutorials to setup my Mikrotik server, and it is running fine, but i didn’t find anything to setup the wireless.
I need to setup a ptp in 5.8Ghz and a AP so clients can connect to it and get internet.
As i told, im just starting and dont know what to do, so if possible, help me step by step how to setup the example above.
I’ve read some people with problems like clients accessing each others pcs on windows xp plataform when connected to the AP… how could this problem be solved?
as for the ptp i don’t know much, but for the 2.4ghz wlan set up like this, assuming that u gonna use wlan2 for the ap 2.4ghz on Router2:
interface wireless set 1 mode=ap-bridge band=2.4ghz-b frequency=2412 ssid=as u like it
Then u should create the addresses:
ip address add 192.168.0.254/24 interface=wlan2
and u will be able to connect clients to the ap. And someone here will help u set the point to point link to Router2 to be able to connect to the net through Router1(in which u are connected to internet).
