Hi guys!
I have a hAP AX3 (RouterOS 7.13.5) and my previous router - hAP AC (RouterOS 6.49.13).
I use hAP AX3 as my home network router and WiFi access point and it works well. It's pretty much in a default configuration from QuickSet with some extras (like VPN tunel). Sometime I need to connect extra devices but I cannot reach them by wire ethernet, so I would like to use hAP AC as a repeater: hAP AX3 <--wireless-->hAP AC<--ethernet--> device. Here I faced with the issue: hAP AC successfully works as a bridge only via ethernet connection to a hAP AX3.
On hAP AC I've created a bridge with all ports and also enabled DHCP client - this simple config works like a charm via ethernet.
However, it doesn't seems to work via WiFi:
I've tried to configure wifi1/wifi2 on hAP AC in station bridge mode (seems like this mode is created for mikrotik <-> mikrotik device?), but seems like hAP AC can't establish connection with the hAP AX3. It is constantly changing frequences.
Then, I've changed mode to station pseudobridge and hAP AC was able to connect to hAP AX3. Despite the connection establish, network still doesn't work, DHCP client can't receive IP-address. In a wifi1 status (AP that is used to connect to AX3) I noticed that field "Last IP-adress" constantly change it's value.
I've also tried to use QuickSet CPE mode but also without luck.
I assume that the issue caused by different wireless network drivers (WifiWave2 on ax3). So is it known issue and can it be workarounded somehow or did I miss something in a configuration?
