WDS or repeater?

Sat Aug 28, 2021 12:38 pm

Can you tell me if it is possible to implement such a scheme as in the attachment?

CAPsMAN is configured on the main router, access points are connected to it via cable.
It is necessary to add one more access point, but there is no
way to extend the cable to it. Can I connect it via WDS to an existing access point or is it better to configure it in repeater mode?

I connected the access point as a repeater, the Internet works. But when you raise the hotspot on the main router on this particular access point, there is no Internet and the authorization page is not displayed. Other hotspots that are cabled with hotspot are fine. How can you defeat this?

Are you sure you have configured it just as a Repeater ?
Post your wireless configuration for that AP with hide-sensitive...

Am not sure if station pseudobridge creates any problems here.
Since you can't use station-bridge to connect to a CAP, what i would try is let the AP out of CapsMAN, configure manually the wireless interface as AP, then configure the reapear to station bridge mode...
And test again ...
