Hi guys (& girls),

I have a question regarding the use of wireless repeaters with hotspot. The setup is like this, hotspot is running on a RB2011Ui with its eth1 connected to the cable modem. On eth2 via a switch there are 12 RB951G-2HnDs in bridge mode (all of them are bypassed in ip bindings). This works fine, the problems start when I try to use the repeater connected to one of the 951s. No matter what I do, I can't login to the hotspot trough the repeater, I get the chap-missing error. I tried setting the repeater as bypassed but nothing seems to work. Repeaters I'm using are tp-link wa801nd. Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance

So I think i solved the problem, I disabled the CHAP authorisation and I'm using PAP instead. Also I removed the address pool from hotspot :

thank you so much, I looking for this whitout of lucky, and you resolved my problem, thanks again, best whishes for you.

Hello.
Am having the same problem and if anyone can help me I would be great full.
My setup is that I have access points connected to Router board and WiFi repeaters are connected to APs. And all are connected to a hotspot in MT with a captive Portal. Problem is if I set the address pool to none in hotspot server the whole network setup goes down. And if I set one pool the APs are giving internet while the repeaters are not.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Regards.
