EAP610 outdoor - standalone repeater mode - force host connection to specific mac address
Hello, I'm wondering if it's possible to force an EAP610 outdoor AP that is being used as a wireless repeater (with no wired LAN connection) to force it to connect to a specific upstream AP mac address. My issue is that we have a chain of APs with the same SSID and the one in question tends to try to connect to another nearby AP with no uplink so it loses connection. I would like to force it to connect to the specific AP mac address that has the uplink.
When I choose the host AP in Omada app, it shows specific mac addresses but doesn't appear to "lock" to that mac address, just the SSID. I've changed the SSIDs to be different and everything works as expected but I'd like to have the same SSID for all.
Thank you for any assistance.
Hi @harness
We can do this under controller mode.
Considering you are under standalone mode, you can lower the tx power of the unwanted EAP, so that the repeater won't detect its wireless signal and will only be able to link to the other EAP.
