This little point...
i hope, you have success without some coffee needed

so plz anybody tell me how can i connect access point to access point and that access point ?
yes, ap2ap will give you transparant network or as roam network
this my suggestion:

1. mode=ap-bridge
2. wds-mode=static
3. band, freq, ssid should same with other access-point
4. create wds
5. add mac-address on '/in wir connect-list' menu will connect to
6. set your wlan interface default-forwarding=no and default-authentication=no basic secure your access-point
7. add bridge interface on '/interface bridge' menu
8. after your other ap connected, you can bridging your wds and ethernet to bridge interface
9. put your ip/subnet on bridge interface for


is it possible to create eoip for that or not?
never try this methode, i need simple config

i read wiki i have to use wds repeater for that am i correct?
yes, repeater i think should tranparant network

and if i want to connect this access point to client(station) how can i connect?
add your client mac-address to your access-point on '/in wir access-list' menu

my all office in different cities.
no problem, line of sight, freenal zone, is must and check visibility of your antenna

Hello again,

1. as far as i try 18 moths ago, when you have to create static wds you must create by type of your wds-address.
2. when you have to create dymanic-wds and select on wds-default-bridge=[your_bridge_interface_name_here]
3. i think is possible to bridged your interfaces and not in 'station' mode your wireless interface for.
4. about vpn, i never try, but i sure with mikrotik will more flexi
5. maybe anyone else have more detail....come on please...!!!!

regards
