Problem with WiFI (CAPSMAN WAVE2)

Mon Apr 29, 2024 6:06 pm

Hi

I try configure CAPsMAN for 7 AP on my network. I have RB750r2 + CRS112-8G-4S + 7x RBcAPGi-5acD2nD all upgraded to 7.14.3. Problem it about CAP dont broadcasts networks. I'm currently trying to run WiFi on only one CAP. My configs:

I noticed that in RBcAPGi-5acD2nD there is no information about the WLAN interface. CAP was launched in CAPsMAN mode using the power button as well as using SYSTEM - RESET CONFIGURATION - CAPS Mode.

After restarting with power button I gets the following config:
Code: Select all
# 1970-01-02 00:03:20 by RouterOS 7.14.3
# software id = 6Z2P-H9GJ
#
# model = RBcAPGi-5acD2nD
# serial number = ***
/interfacebridge
add admin-mac=78:9A:18:17:51:B8 auto-mac=no comment=defconf name=bridgeLocal
/ip hotspot profile
set [ find default=yes ] html-directory=hotspot
/interface bridgeport
add bridge=bridgeLocal comment=defconf interface=ether1
add bridge=bridgeLocal comment=defconf interface=ether2
/ip dhcp-client
add comment=defconf interface=bridgeLocal
/systemnote
set show-at-login=no
As we can see there is no information about CAPsMAN... I use this manual: https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/display/UM/cAP+XL+ac

When i use SYSTEM - RESET CONFIGURATION - No Default Configuration and next CAPS Mode i get:
Code: Select all
 
 # 1970-01-02 00:03:49 by RouterOS 7.14.3
# software id = 6Z2P-H9GJ
#
# model = RBcAPGi-5acD2nD
# serial number = ***
/interface bridge
add admin-mac=78:9A:18:17:51:B8 auto-mac=no comment=defconf name=bridgeLocal
/ip hotspot profile
set [ find default=yes ] html-directory=hotspot
/interface bridge port
add bridge=bridgeLocal comment=defconf interface=ether1
add bridge=bridgeLocal comment=defconf interface=ether2
/ip dhcp-client
add comment=defconf interface=bridgeLocal
/system note
set show-at-login=no
I think CAPsMODE from restart button and form reset configuration is for wireless package, not for wave2.

Do you have the wifi-qcom-ac (as part of the extra) package installed on the RBcAPGi-5acD2nD?
It is required to make it work, but from the config it looks like it is missing.

IIRC dynamically created wifi interfaces by capsman do not show up in /export on the cap.
