No Each brand of access point communicates in its own way.
Therefore it is recommended to use the same brands of access points.
Each brand of access point is not compatible with each other in order to act as a repeater.

You probably need to replicate the settings (and use the same ros version preferably) from the other network to yours. Maybe silly answer but your question doesn't give any details to which can someone answer...

Is the WiFi band of the "other" mikrotik router set to "auto" ? Is set to "802.11" protocol instead of "any" ? What is channell set to ? 20MHz or 20/40MHz ?
Try to exactly replicate all WiFi settings from the "other" router to the "new" one as Jarda have already suggested.
