What changes should I make to the EZ-Bridge when changing to a Multipoint system?
The EZ-Bridge ships from the factory configured as a Point-to-Point system.
Sometimes people need to create a multipoint system where there is one Access Point and multiple client antennas.
One application might be connecting several buildings together using a single access point and multiple clients.
The following changes should be made if changing to a multipoint configuration:
EZBR-DUAL-AC/ and EZBR-0214+ Point to Multipoint
- Reset AP to Factory Default
- Change Mode of 802.11AC interface to Access Point instead of Access Point (WDS)
- Uncheck the Hide ESSID option
- Set ESSID to your custom ESSID. Each AP must have a different ESSID
- Set Wireless Security Key to your custom key/passphrase
- Set Wireless channel to a fixed channel (Frequency) Each AP must use a different channel.
- Set all units on a different static IP
- Reset Client to factory default
- Change mode of client to Client, not Client(WDS)
- Set ESSID to match the ESSID of the AP
- Set wireless security key to match key of the AP
