CAPsMAN basics: expand your WiFi network

In this video Deniss will show you how easy it is to add another AP to your existing wireless network - it only takes a couple of steps.

Please also make a video on CapsMan VLAN with multiple cAP' AC & AX

[elijahzeida]

This is awesome, thanks! Would love more advanced CAPsMAN videos!

[materangics]

Would be great to show a mix example where you have ax, ac, n cAPs together.

Can you allow cap devices connected by mesh Instead of only cable ?

In step4, i don't have the xmb, smb, these two lines, RouterOS v7.16.2

[ВсеобоВсем-яия]

Yeah, but if i need to connect cap through wi-fi backhaul? How can we manage this ?

[prmfeddema]

Thank you Deniss - now here is a more complex question (taking your previous video on frequencies into account).

a) Do the different Caps take other Caps frequencies into account (avoid using the same fequencies by different Caps) or is this a manual planning effort?
b) If i want to increase/decrease signal strenght - how do you do this properly? For example: i want to reuse 1 frequency but want to lower signal strength from the attic Cap so it does not interfere with the signal strength from the kitchen Cap.

Thanks for any advise.

Sadly the caps mode reset button hold never works for me, I have to go in and tell the device to reset its config to CAP. I wish you guys gave us an led notification that it's actually in Cap mode when doing the reset press. I never ever get anything past the blinking after the first 5 sec it goes back to blue. this has been on 15 cap ax devices in a row. but reset config to caps mode works 100% of the time.

Sorry the newest winbox4 look like ordinar web page, contrast is the worst or shape of fonts makes this effect. How long winbox 3 will be supported? Btw thanks for film 😊

[sorinionvt]

Hi, please change color schema and maybe font for the new winbox. Is very hard to use it like it is now

[brunokhaas]

Great! But how can I change the name of the cap-wifi1 to identify the AP?

[stonehead]

Hi, sorry for the question because I dont know much about networking. What is the difference then I make all ssid and passwords the same manually? can it act like the mesh network? transfer the user to the strongest access point by itself without user noticing it? or is it only, putting the same setting to all devices at the same time?

[shaker]

Is there an easy way to send DHCP addresses on my cap Clients from specific pools per CAP? Then it is easy to identify which client is connected where. Or can I route different networks per CAP easily?
10.10.1.0 for CAP 1, 10.10.2.0 for CAP 2 and use separate DHCP servers?

For all others, please make a video for AX roaming topic - FT function. Nobody knows and it works great in my opinion.

Waiting for a 6E supported device please

Excelente explicación mi estimado. Haz más videos de Firewall Avanzado de MikroTik ❤

[drumaddict]

HA! winbox version 4 and still he says TABS! so please, bring TABS back and not the current "WebGUI wrapper" feeling :(

[jovenseyward]

I have three mikrotiks, specially Mikrotik cAP AX, but i want to connect with a wireless mesh, cause wired in my home is a little difficult. I would like a video with simplest Setup Mesh Network, specialy in wireless mode, not wired.

[TimurBabyuk]

Now it's time for new home AX access point devices instead of old cAPs so that we don't have to use routers as APs (or the only cAP AX which is overkill for house coverage) 😏

[nikolashuminosky]

setting CAPsMAN on winbox 4 is double trouble

[KamenosTheGreek]

Virus.exe as ssid hahaha. It should have been 5G ANTENNA TEST.
