Hi,
I just received my wap ac I purchased. however I am not sure the best way to set it up. I have a 951Ui-2HnD as my main router. It currently has 2 networks, Normal and Guest. I want to setup the same on the new wap ac, however both normal and guest should be on 2.4 and 5ghz. Should I use capsman for this? Or whats the best way, I tried following a few guides on capsman to get it going, and everything always showed up as hidden network.
How Do I just get this to be a simple ap?
If you want to use the wireless on both the 951Ui-2HnD and the wAP AC, use CAPsMAN certainly. It easily supports both normal and guest networks on both 2.4 and 5ghz. It is a bit more configuration upfront, but pays off later, especially if you ever need to add yet another wAP AC
You’ll need to use different VLANs for normal and guest, and trunk both VLANs across the link to the wAP AC.
For more details / configuration instructions, please see: http://mum.mikrotik.com/presentations/BR14/Uldis.pdf
You will likely want to use local forwarding with VLANs.
You would probably use the hardware AP on 2.4 and 5.8 as the “normal” AP, and add a virtual AP on both to be the “guest” AP (you could do it the other way around, it makes very little difference).
I can’t seem to follow along to any of this, It just doesnt make sense. For instance why am i creating a bridge and new dhcp server on the caps interface? I just want my AP to use the existing DHCP Servers one for main and one for guest, on the current board I have?
I don’t want to use the boards wifi any longer, its obsolete and not needed.
Whats the best way to just hook up this new AP and have it just be my wireless and my dhcp scopes be the same they already are? THe issue im having is guest vs main and keeping those ip’s and dhcp servers seperate now that they are on the AP.
I got it working! For anyone else very lost, I suggest this video, it uses a setup with a normal and a guest network 
I would suggest using local forwarding if you want optimal performance with CAPsMAN. It is more difficult to configure, however, since you need to work with VLAN trunking if you want a separate guest network with local forwarding. That video is good, but does not show how to set up CAPsMAN with local forwarding with VLANs, so your wireless performance will likely be diminished.
The relevant parts of the presentation I posted before are titled “CAPsMAN local forwarding” and “CAPsMAN VLAN assignment”
I need more pointers in the right direction, this PDF is great and all. But i cannot apply it to my configuration. Do I create a 3rd SSID for this? I don’t get it
