[Req] WDS Mesh with wpa/wpa2 auth tkip or aes, full function

Thu Apr 12, 2012 6:13 pm

i have problem with WDS Mesh with wpa/wpa2 auth,
the client always disconnected with message :
unicast key exchange timeout
i have search all the forum, and there's no solution.
i need the wpa/wpa2 for security.
(maybe other people too.)

thx.

You MUST use same hardware vendor (Mikrotik to Mikrotik) to get wds +wpa2 full compatibility.

Instead, you can use Ubiquiti to dd-wrt and vice versa (fully compatible).

Also Mikrotik (AP WDS) -> DD-WRT (WDS Sta + Mktik Compatibility on) works, but don't use wpa/wpa2 in that case (just problems).

This is a Mikrotik bug (or commercial try, why not...).

It's supossed we can get full wds+wpa2-aes compatibility between Atheros chips, but... This is not true in Routeros.

There is another hardware seller, "Deliberant", who says to have full Ubiquiti and Mikrotik Compatibility... I'll test equipments on June. So, then i'll posts results.

Have a nice day,
