Wireless P2P connection

Tue Feb 22, 2011 9:12 pm

I am trying to setup two mikrotik aps to do a P2P connection. I have setup both aps accroding to the manual below. One is set to bridge mode and the other to station mode.

The aps connect to each other and I can communicate with both of them however I can not pass any other traffic over them. Computers on either side can not communicate with one another.

• To make a point-to-point connection, using 802.11a standard, frequency 5805 MHz and Service Set Identifier p2p, write:
• /interface wireless set wlan1 ssid="p2p" frequency=5805 band=5ghz \
mode=bridge disabled=no
The remote interface should be configured to station as showed below.
• To make the wireless interface as a wireless station, working in 802.11a standard and Service Set Identifier p2p:
/interface wireless set wlan1 ssid="p2p" band=5ghz mode=station disabled=no

I think that you have to use mode=station-wds on the client side.
To work with wds you have also to add a wds (with the station mac address) o the ap side
