How to use MT as AP Repeater

Mon Oct 24, 2005 3:14 am

I have a Cisco AP 1200 series and i am using as AP Repeater
All i need it to make bandwidth limitation directly on AP not on router connected to AP, i want to replace the Cisco AP and put a MT AP, but i dont know haw to configure the MT to work as Repeater just with one Wireless card. I have Atheros R52 with MT OS 2.9.2 so can i use MT as Repeater just with one Card!
THnaks allot~!

You can only do this with WDS but then you need to use the same system throughout your network. I.e. MT required as base station and repeater

Well, first thanks for responding!
But still i didnt understand haw to make it, i can make MT work as Station to get link to MT then I add Virtual AP but it doesnot work.
I did this with 2 Cisco AP, one as Real AP and the otherone as Repeator which repeates everything that the first Ap send, so if this is posible with one interface in mikrotik it will be the best thing, cose i need to make limitation in AP not just in Router

Thanks again

This link should help

Look under How to make a Wireless Bridge, using WDS?

If not post again and I will try to help further.
