Router + PTP bridge over 5GHz to second device

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

Hello,

I have two hAP devices and I would like to use them in manner described by attached diagram.

I my Mikrotik 1 is set as dual AP by quickset and works ok as intended, I was using some cheap router with ok result, but it has only 100Mbit LAN ports so I want to upgrade connectivity at remote network extension to 1Gbit ports.

I almost got there by setting Mikrotik 2 as CPE, set source of address WLAN and disable NAT/DHCP, but something is not all right with this setup every hour or so I get disconnected from network at Mikrotik2 side of the network an it take a minute to restore (I see disconnect and reconnect via Winbox on Mikrotik2).

Using Mikrotik 1 set by quickset to PTP Bridge AP mess up lot of my previously working settings so I guess editing my Dual AP settings to use WLAN2 as dedicated interface to link between two devices and set Mikrotik 2 properly (just connect over 5GHz and forward DHCP and transparent connection to LAN ports) is the most reasonable way, but I am not skilled enough.

Can somebody please help me?

Mikrotik 2 should only have:

/interface bridge add name=bridge
/interface bridge port add bridge=bridge interface=all
/interface wireless security-profiles set 0 mode=dynamic-keys authentication-types=wpa2-psk wpa2-pre-shared-key=AP-PASSWORD
/interface wireless set wlan2 mode=station-bridge channel-width=20/40/80mhz-XXXX ssid=AP-BRIDGE-SSID band=5ghz-a/n/ac disabled=no
/ip dhcp-client add interface=bridge disabled=no

Assuming that you have a password on the AP wireless interface, both devices support 802.11ac (if not, set band=5ghz-a/n channel-width=20/40mhz-XX) and “wlan2” is the name of 5Ghz interface
What is the log message on both sides once the disconnect/reconnect occurs?

mess up lot of my previously working

If you (use quickset and) set/change anything in the other menu’s: DON’T GO BACK TO QUICKSET, it will mess up your settings.
