Integrate Rasperry on wifi

Hello,

I tried to connect the Mikrotik to a Raspberry with an AP. It’s connected but i cannot reach it through the ether2 with my computer.
I would like to access the raspberry with ssh through the Mikrotik
Raspberry Ap <—> Mikrotik Wifi <—> Mikrotik Ether <—> Computer

Do you have a configuration to recommend?
I’ve tried several configurations without success.

Thanks

Your use case is not entirely typical “transparent wireless bridge” case, but I strongly suspect it does fall into same category.

In short: what you want to do is somewhere between “somehow doable” and “almost impossible”, also depending on how you can configure rPI AP. Anyway, have a look at wireless station modes documentation, which describes the problem quite well and outlines a few different possibilities to deal with the problem (together with drawbacks of possible solutions). With single wired device behind MT wifi device you may even get things going almost transparently by using wireless mode station-pseudobridge … or station-pseudobridge-clone.

Note: this only works for MT wifi devices which use legacy wireless driver. The new wifiwave2 driver (required by ax devices) doesn’t support any of station modes, required for (pseudo) transparent connection between PC and rPI. On those only routed (and NATed) solution is available for now.

Not only AX. Also AC3 and Audience can use wifiwave2 :sunglasses:

I know … that’s why I wrote required by ax … ac devices don’t require wifiwave2 driver so one can use legacy wireless driver for such an exercise.

But if you do install the wifiwave2 drivers on those devices, you get into the same situation as said ax devices.

Well, I was thinking hard about exact wording of that warning when I wrote my post … so I did mention wifiwave2 driver not supporting needed station modes … and I added note about ax devices in parentheses … in my native language that counts as a side note (and as I explained in my previous post, I chose ax devices explicitly … to indicate that ax devices are not capable of necessary setup while older devices, even being able to run wifiwave2 driver, might be used but not with wifiwave2 driver).

So yes, while I might express myself more clear in this aspect (and in many more words), it didn’t seem important to me at time of writing my post … but I did try to write things very correctly and one reading my statement verbosely would not get things wrong (but not necessarily right in all aspects). Which was my objective.
