The hAP is not configured to do both dtdlink and LAN on 1 cat5 cable, you'd have to connect, e.g. RE: 1) You'd loose ports to daisy chain the LAN of the hAP (in addition to the dtdlink) over to the netgear with other mesh nodes. This unusual configuration bites a lot of us, so we're all very happy it is no longer an issue with current nightly builds.


In older firmware, XM devices only the main port is dtdlink, with XW device only the secondary port is dtdlink. In currently nightly build firmware, any port can be used. with older AREDN firmware versions dtdlink only works on 1 of the ports. This would not work if you tested with a Nanostation which does not have a recent Nightly build firmware version and used the wrong port on the Nanostation. On all the mesh nodes connected to the GS108E, be sure that the POE passthrough is 'OFF' in advanced settings.Ģ) I connected a Ubiquiti node to Port 5 of the RB but nothing seemed to happen Put the mesh node on port 1 that you would like the LAN device in port 2 to receive an IP address from. It allows for 4 mesh nodes to be connected via dtdlink and 1 of the ports can be a laptop or other LAN device.Ĭonnect port 5 of the hAP ac lite into port 5 of the GS108E. This GS108E configuration would work at the following link. I don't have easy access to the actual node device to see if any lights are on it but I guess not.ġ) use GS108E to dtdlink all the nodes, including hAP ac lite The RB power supply from (MikroTik) is a 24 volt model. Oh, as an unrelated (?) test I connected a Ubiquiti node to Port 5 of the RB but nothing seemed to happen and I couldn't see the node on the RB Mesh Status screen. (I'd like to run this with AREDN-Mesh-RF turned off.)

I'd like to have all the older nodes (re: NetGear sw) be dtd-connected with this new RB but so far I can't figure how to do it.I have Internet on the NetGear switch and have also tried it successfully on Port 1 of the RB. I have a NetGear VLAN switch (108E) that is configured as 3-Nodes, Wan and LANs.

Also, I'd like to access the mesh with my PC using 5 GHz WiFi which seems to work fine.

I have a MikroTik hAP AC Lite (RouterBoard) and would like to use it for the various services I have instead of having the services on other nodes here that come and go depending on the testing I am doing.
