Groove 5Hn Simple PTP Bridge

Fri Nov 04, 2011 10:18 pm

Hello,
I am confused on the steps to configure a simple bridge. Is the correct way to configure one unit in Bridge mode, and the other to station wds?
Is there anything else to configure?
We are only connecting 2 buildings together and have no need for routing. I am new to the routeros, any help is appreciated.

Hello,

Nothing difficult to do,

1. set one end radio Ap or Bridge mode (under wireless),
2. The second one set radio Station-Wds mode (under wireless)
3. Enable static-wds on both ends (under wireless)
4. Create Wds interface and put the mac-address of the Station-Wds radio to Ap or Bridge unit
5. In Ap or device create bridge and add the wds and ethernet to bridge ports
6. In Station-Wds create bridge and add the wireless interface and ethernet device to bridge ports
7. Under firewall diable conn-track

Kind Regards

Aleksander

NB! Mikrotik is much more than SOHO box

another method is even more simple:

1. open quickset on one groove, and set p2p bridge mode in Client mode
2. open quickset on other groove, and set p2p bridge mode in Server mode
