Hello to all mikrotik people,

I would like some recommendations for a network that we are trying to implement a mesh network in one of our labs we a mesh portal (gateway for the mesh), and we have applied so far 3 routers and a mesh portal, a total of 4 routers for the principal connection.
What are the maximun numbers of routerboards that I can add to the mesh (wds-mode=static mesh) per 1 gateway?

Thanks for your responses and attention.

Hi normis,

Thanks for your quick response, it has no limitation, but what about throughput for the users who are going to connect to the most remote ap? it will affect the throughput the quantity of hops that will have to pass until it gets to the gateway?
Thanks

can I put many gateways in the mesh all linked to hotspot?
I have found some delays in some of the RB433 that I have in the mesh, I would like to know if that is a problem by setting another gateway inside of the mesh?

thanks
