hi dear technicians
i have a wireless network on my office.(floor 1)
i control my users with hotspot and mikrotik user manager.and all things is very good.
now , i want to have wireless access on next floor ( floor 2) ,
the wireless signal i very weak on floor 2 , and i used a repeater for that.
now , when i login to hotspot on floor 1 ( all things is good) but when i walking through floor 2 (where repeater is installed) the hotspot login page appears again and i have to enter my credentials again.
what should i do for this? i want to enter my credential 1 time and use the wireless network through floor1 and floor 2.
thanks friends
Do not use a repeater, all the MAC address of each device connected to repeater are translated (like NAT) to MAC of repeater.
In this way HotSpot see 2 distinct device when you are connected on 1st floor directly or on 2nd with MAC translated.
(also all other device on 2nd floor share same MAC address)
If you can not use a cable for 2nd floor, use 2 mikrotik AP with WDS configured (both on ap-bridge mode, same SSID, with WDS enabled, etc.)
Each device connected preserve his own MAC address and only one login between floor.
