Nighthawk MK73 - AP Mode Satellite won't sync
I have a Nighthawk MK73. So first unit MR70 was configured in AP mode, when i'm trying to add satellite MS70 that is connected via ethernet cable it won't sync always get satellite timeout on the M...
How are you wiring in the satellite? Through the mikrotik? The satellites should be wired through the MR70's lan port. So it should go mikrotik----->mr70------>MS70
why??? MR70 is in Operation Mode Access Point so there is no any reason to have satellite connected to MR70
both MR70 and MS70 are connected to Mikoritk with both ports in the same bridgeFor the MS to work correctly, router or AP mode, ANY MS has to be connected behind the MR serially, not in parallel with the host router. MK and Orbi systems are designed this way. How the MESH traffic works on these systems.

There is no reason why it should be like that. Why if both MR and MS get ip from MIkrotik.
And what if i want to connect both MS via ethernet but MR70 has only one ethernet port.
