CPE510 v1.1 problem as bridge or repeater mode
Model :
Hardware Version :
Firmware Version :
ISP :
Hello all, I have two CPE510 v1.1 that work fine. One is configured as AP and the second one as a client.
Recently I tryed to configure the second one as a bridge, so It can still act as a client for keep it connected to the first CPE510 and as an AP, so other clients can connect to this second antenna.
The problem is that when in bridge mode, the client and the AP don't work at the same time! if I disable the AP, then the client can connect to the remote AP, but when I enable the AP part, the client immediately stop the connection and can't find a lot of stations via the survey function...
Same issue in repeater mode, wich is the same of bridge mode but with same SSID of the remote AP.
I tryed everything I can, even updating to a recent firmware (2.1.6 20170908 rel. 45233) the issue keeps, it's like if an AP interface and Client interface can't coexist on the same phisical CPE, but why add a bridge mode if it doesn't work?
Anyone have an hint? :(

Re:CPE510 v1.1 problem as bridge or repeater mode
Thank you again for the informations, but I have to build exclusively PTP connection over a long distance.
I made a (very bad) scheme to explain what I have to do:
As you can see, start point is #1 (AP), communicate to point #2 (client), over a little distance;
now I have to link the new site #3 to site #2, because they are facing each other and, surprisily, all three sites are on the exactly line of horizontal sight!
That's why #2 have to act as a bridge, otherwise I have to add another AP antenna on site #2. I guess in this case I have no problem of hidden nodes. I've already made some tryes and the link is working fine, except that the bridge feature is not working on my device.
