LtAP mini LTE network

Sat Aug 14, 2021 8:39 pm

Hi everyone, I am very new to this forum and to Mikrotik products.

I am thinking of installing LtAP mini LTE devices in passenger vehicles, I want to be able to manage the devices on one platform, they should use the same SSID, such that a user is still connected even when they hop into a different vehicle. I would appreciate being pointed to the right documentation or videos.
Thank you.

Some "Creative" Solutions i know are being used :

Solution 1 :
The Local BUS-Company in Town use Mikrotik wAP ac LTE in all there Buses.
5Ghz is used to Provide WIFI for Internet and other digital Services to Customers
LAN 1 ist used for a Web-Server, that provides Digital-Services for WIFI-Connected Customers (Movies, Games, News, Wetter etc.)
LAN 2 ist used Onboard-Display (To show Bus-Route, Wetter, News-Feed Etc..)

The 2.4 Ghz ist configured as a Wifi-Client.
As soon as the BUS enters the Bus-Depot, the Mikrotik wAP ac LTE is able to Connect to the Management Network.
All Devices Mikrotik, Web-Server and Co. used this connection to update and more.

For your use :
As soon as the Mikrotik-Device ist connected to the Management Network,
-> Script can be run to export or import Data or Configurations
-> A Small Tool on the Network can connect to the Device via SSH oder API to Export, Import update , etc..


Solution 2:
A local Company have Mikrotik LTE-Devices in all their Trucks.
The Device connect to a Management Network via VPN.

As long as the Device as an Internet-Connection, it will communicate "Home".
All your normal Tools will work, as if they were localy connected.
Winbox, SSH, DUDE, Scripts etc..

Good Morning,

What do you want to Manage on the Router?
I want to be able to set the same bandwidth limits for all APs, and use the same hotspot captive portal and landing page. I want to create vouchers from the management router that can work on all APs. Currently, I know how to create the vouchers using Radius server on the main router but now, I want the vouchers to work on the remote LTE APs. How do I add the LtAP minis to recognise these configurations.
