Wireless Mesh and Capsman

RouterOS Wireless Networking
1

Hello

i am trying to build up the following szenario:

i have a RB750Gr3 as Router with an RB260GSP as switch behind.
i have a hAP ac lite connected to the switch.
the 2.4GHz WLAN of the hAP is configured via Capsman on the RB750Gr3.

now i would like to have a wireless mesh on the 5GHz WLAN betwenn the first hAP als MEsh portal and 2 other hAP ac lite.

if i configure the 5GHz WLAN on the first hAP as ap bridge and on the other hAPs as station bridge all ist running.
But i would like to build the interconnection on the 5GHz as a mesh.

After configuring the mesh i can see a short time traffic on the mesh interface but i cannot reach the hAPs that are not connected via ethernet.

Please can someone help me?

Here is your first free help: DON’T DO IT!
Run a cable to your second AP and connect it to your switch just like your first, or directly to the router when that is easier.
That will work so much better…

I know not using a mesh is better
But i cannot run cables in the location
