Join to sites with SXT devices

RouterOS Wireless Networking
1

Hello,

I have 2 sites with a Mikrotik router and internet access. There are 1km far each other, I want to join both sites with SXT devices. Each site have it’s own network: 192.168.1.0/24 and 192.168.2.0/24
I read about how to do that but I see lots of modes: brigde, wps… Which one do you recommend?

I will really appreciate your help, this is my first time with wireless links.

Best regards.

Give the SXTs local addresses in the appropriate network - like .2
Create a transport network between the two wireless devices.

192.168.1.0/24 site:
On your site’s router add a route to the remote network with the SXT as gateway, i.e.:

/ip route
add distance=10 dst-address=192.168.2.0/24 gateway=192.168.1.2

configure the SXT as AP with the follwing settings:


/ip address
add address=192.168.1.2/24 interface=ether1
add address=172.16.0.1/30 interface=wlan1

/ip route
add distance=10 dst-address=192.168.2.0/24 gateway=172.16.0.2

On the 192.168.2.0/24 site, add the other route via the SXT:

/ip route
add distance=10 dst-address=192.168.1.0/24 gateway=192.168.2.2

Configure the SXT as Station and add these settings:

/ip address
add address=192.168.2.2/24 interface=ether1
add address=172.16.0.2/30 interface=wlan1

/ip route
add distance=10 dst-address=192.168.1.0/24 gateway=172.16.0.1

And off you go.
