Trouble with connect-list

RouterOS Wireless Networking
1

My Mikrotik doesn’t seem to notice that I’ve setup a connect list.
I can connect to each of these access points manually with the same settings listed below, and the signal strength for both is well within the specified range. Is there something else I need to configure?


The following is my connect list:

0 interface=wlan1 connect=yes mac-address=00:00:00:00:00:00 ssid=“GrandIsleMarinaGuest” signal-range=-120..120 area-prefix=“” security-profile=default wireless-protocol=any interworking=any iw-network-type=wildcard iw-venue=any
iw-hessid=00:00:00:00:00:00 iw-internet=any iw-asra=any iw-esr=any iw-uesa=any iw-hotspot20=any iw-hotspot20-dgaf=any iw-roaming-ois=“” iw-authentication-types=“” iw-ipv4-availability=any iw-ipv6-availability=any iw-realms=“”
3gpp=“” iw-connection-capabilities=“”

1 interface=wlan1 connect=yes mac-address=00:00:00:00:00:00 ssid=“ATT-WIFI-4636” signal-range=-120..120 area-prefix=“” security-profile=mifi wireless-protocol=any interworking=any iw-network-type=wildcard iw-venue=any
iw-hessid=00:00:00:00:00:00 iw-internet=any iw-asra=any iw-esr=any iw-uesa=any iw-hotspot20=any iw-hotspot20-dgaf=any iw-roaming-ois=“” iw-authentication-types=“” iw-ipv4-availability=any iw-ipv6-availability=any iw-realms=“”

If Default Authentication is checked for wireless interface then you’ll be able to connect to any AP unless you create entry in connect list and uncheck Connect option.

[ /interface wireless set default-authentication=yes ]

If Default Authentication is unchecked for wireless interface then device will not connect to any AP unless you create entry in connect list and check Connect.

[ /interface wireless set default-authentication=no ]

mac-address=00:00:00:00:00:00 means that this entry will affect all MAC addresses

So if you want to connect only to AP which is registered in connect list then you need to set [ /interface wireless set default-authentication=no ] and add entry like this
[ /interface wireless connect-list add interface=wlan1 mac-address=MAC-ADDRESS-OF-AP-WIRELESS-INTERACE security-profile=default ]
