Hi, I create wds bridge from two rb711-5Hn. Put them on mode bridge and connect them with wds.
It works like other one in our network. But after few minutes, device start generating lot of packets per second.
Devices are about 500m from self, signal is -40dBi. I have also tryed diferent frequencies.
I upgrade to latest 5.14 and reset configuration (/ system reset-configuration) and setup again but problem happend again. I also change ip addresses of both devices.
Theres only one user connected through that bridge and he is not transfering any data. But when packet generating start, it block lot of devices in network and in main router (rb1100) i can se lot of pps in each interface.
Those devices generate cca 1000 - 3000 pps with traffic abou 0.5-1mbps. bps/pps flows only betwen wireless interfaces, not through ethernet which direct to user connected to bridge - it means, those packets are not generated by any pc or device behind bridge.
I attached dump you can see that packets are from ip 193.179.160.135 which is in other part of network. I have disabled device .135 but problem happend again with another ip. Each time it happend with diferent ip when I torch it.
Same situation happend about half year ago, also with rb711 but solution was reset to default and reconfiguring again. This time it didnt help.

Interesting, when user connect to bridge and download some data, problem didnt happend for hour, after he stop downloading/using internet, bridge start generating packets after 2-5min of inactivity.
Now user have stoped his browsing and downloading and again, each 2-5min it starts generating tons of packets and routerboards in whole network hangs and didnt respond to ping.
I just manualy disable / enable network and next 5 mins it works.
I have remembered how I solve same problem last time.
I downgrade one of units to ros 4.17.
I did it right now on device which is closer to gateway and bridge is working for 10min now.
Looks good.
