QUOTE(88sales88 @ Apr 25 2012, 12:27 AM) Hi I need some help. Just got a rb751g ap. I want to setup following to get client on the internet Clients <wifi> rb751g ap ---------- remote ap <> internet Left part is Ok but need help with getting from rb751g to remote ap and internet. Remote ap don't support wds. I read somewhere I need to setup the 751g as repeater which acts like client. Need some help on what to do using win box or web fig. Thank you sifus in advance. If remote ap doesn't support wds, then you cannot do it with rb751g. Need to do a cable run to the remote AP.

Isn't there anyway to configure the rb to function as a normal wifi client to the remote ap ? Or is the challenge because I want the rb to also serve as an ap to my PC clients wirelessly?

If the remote AP supports WDS then it is doable.

If this is true, quite sad as it seems DD-WRT could do it based on this. http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Unive...reless_Repeater

Using Unifi setup over here. I've successfully done so without any problem.
Any idea how to setup Guest Wi-Fi network? The guest network shall not have access to my LAN network.

I just bought this router (mikrotik rb751u-2hnd) and I have a question. I connected to my modem and enabled PPPOE mode. How can I restart my connection if needed? Normally routers have a restart button like my previous D-Link, lol. I can't seem to find any options in this case?

Thanks kaisam  You mean there's no option for "restart" and the only thing possible is "disable/re-enable"? Btw, how can I increase the TX-power? I can't seem to find the command/UI to do it as well?

I can't seem to find the command/UI to do it as well? Reboot = Restart. TX-power default is 100%. The UI at ---> Wireless ---> Interfaces ---> double click interface name ---> Advanced mode --> Tx power. Thank you.

Thank you boss, I found it  Didn't know it was hidden. Actually what's the command to check the current Tx power? When I click on Tx power on the UI, it says 17? I thought the default is 30? During high loads, the connection strength seems to drop so I guess increasing Tx power to default 30 would help?

Thank you.

Can anyone tell me what's the command to use NTP on mikrotik rb751u-2hnd? I can't find the option under "system" > "NTP client" on the user interface? That's odd??

The thing I'm confused about is that Winbox says I'm running on Version 5.6 (on the status bar) but the latest available version is 5.16?! I suppose if I backup my settings, I can restore it after I flash to the latest firmware?

I suppose if I backup my settings, I can restore it after I flash to the latest firmware? 5.6 is equivalent to 5.06. Please don't confuse. Latest stable version is 5.16. Someone in MikroTik's forum does suggest to make the version numbering more clearer. Check it out @ http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=61813Backup your setting, copy over to your computer (backup purpose) and upgrade to the new firmware. Restore back using the backup file earlier. This post has been edited by rip_code: May 16 2012, 11:53 PM

LOL, thanks for clarifying  Seriously, the version number is indeed confusing. I have no idea why they made it that way.
