Hi there,

I have:
- Wireless bridge CPE 3 > CPE 2
- Ethernet link CPE 2 > CPE 1
- Wireless link CPE 1 > AP 1

Here is an image:

I need that all interfaces (including ethernet) are in the same broadcast domain.
Do I have to set a dynamic WDS on AP1 (in ap bridge mode)?
How do I have to set all other CPE?

Thanks!

Set AP in bridge mode -put WLAN and Ethernet in a bridge.
Set Cpe1 + Cpe 2 to stationbridge -put WLAN and Ethernet in a bride.
Set Cpe 3 in AP mode and bridge WLAN and Ethernet.

Try on all links nstreme or nv2. Set different frequencies on both links. If you us N-Standard set advanced datarates.

Enjoy surfing, good luck!

Hi sonny and thanks for your answer!
On CPE2, with the standard licencse, I can't use AP mode!

Use "bridge" mode, not "AP-bridge" This way AP will only connect to one station which is allowed. (This is how they bridge SXT units)
All the other advices given by sonny are ok.

So it should be:

AP: AP with dynamic wds
CPE 2: bridge
CPE 3: station wds
CPE 1: station wds

is it correct?

Yes, and CPE 2 also with dynamic wds
