Hi, first post here.
So I have purchased "wAP ac" and want to setup it as AP.
I watched several tutorials - but I haven't found the exact configuration that I want, and I can't get it working by myself.
Any tips are greatly appreciated, or even better, complete tutorial for my situation.
Here is what I'd like to do:
- I have a typical home router with WiFi and some ethernet ports
- home router is in LAN 192.168.1.0/24 and has DHCP server running, also some port forwarding to internet
- I want to connect home router and wAP with ethernet cable (not through WiFi) and locate in my backyard
- I want wAP to create WiFi with different SSID than home router
- I want clients that connect to wAP to be in the same 192.168.1.0/24 network (as if they connected directly to home router - so port forwading can be used)
Bear with me if this is very simple problem, but I tried several setups and none of this worked.
I almost got it working with virtual wlan, but I didn't want the original MikroTik WiFi to be present too.
Hope to learn basics of RouterOs as it looks inifinitely capable !
thanks,
