How to setup redundant radio link?

RouterOS Wireless Networking

Hi
I’m trying to make a redundant radio link to work, but at the moment the speed is very low, setup is like below:

radio1 192.168.1.200----------------------------------------------------------------------------------radio1 192.168.1.201
MASTERS------------HEX Mikrotik192.168.1.10------------HEX Mircrotik 192.168.1.11-----------------SLAVES
radio2 192.168.1.202----------------------------------------------------------------------------------radio2 192.168.1.203

so if an antenna on one side fails the other should activate, at the moment the link look weak with silly speeds of ~20mbps, wasn’t working at all but it began working after I setup VLAN, if anyone could help me would be great.

Regards,

Hi,

You can use other MikroTik router behind each side of the link and connect 2 radios to that router on each side and you can use static route with different administrative distance to other side of the link or you can use the “interface bonding” option to bond two wireless link together, another solution is to use the cisco switch behind them and use ether channel.
You have many option.

Hi, I already tried interface bonding and also create VLANs on the WANs ports but speed is limited to 100Mbps.
