General • station v station-bridge mode

Hi,

We have a private network of about 120 Mikrotik devices. Mainly separate locations connected by wifi (point to point or point to sector) They all use v6 of routerOs and the client sides are set up in station-bridge mode. Apart from some dodgy links with poor line of sight everything works well.

We just bought a mANTBox ax 15s to replace one of the sector radios (to change to 5ghz). I was surprised to see that it didn't support NV2 mode. This is dissapointing as some of our long or difficult wifi links require it.

I can't select "AP Bridge" as a mode on the mANTBox. It only has "AP" mode and when our existing clients try to connect using station-bridge mode, they are refused.

If we lose bridge mode for the wifi link and use AP and Station modes, what am I missing out on?

regards
Justin.
