Hi,
We’ve got a number of Mitsubishi Aircons with Wifi Adapters (558IF and 559IFs). These have worked fine for years with a couple of Apple Airport Extremes. They can only be configured through WPS.
For a couple of years I’ve had some UniFi APs. These have been fine, but the Aircon adapters would never associate with them. If I recreated the same network (SSID & Passphrase) on the UniFi devices then everything else moved across seamlessly, but these Aircon adapters wouldn’t associate. UniFi doesn’t support WPS so I couldn’t rerun the association process directly with them. This meant I’ve had to keep to Airports running to keep the Wifi Aircons running.
I’ve just bought a HAP AX lite to see if MikroTik would work with them - the plan being to move everything to MikroTik APs if it worked. But I seem to be hitting a similar problem as the UniFi APs when I recreate the existing network, and the WPS process won’t successfully complete.
I’ve set up as basic network as I can - WPA2/CCMP only, 802.11g (have tried n and ax as well). I’ve tried PMKID enabled and disabled, and Management Protection enabled and disabled.
If I recreate the existing network the AC adapters are associated with, then they start to associate but after a few seconds they disconnect. Everything else moves across fine, so I’m confident the SSID and PSK are correct. Those errors are:Or
If I rerun the WPS process for a new network by hitting WPS Accept in Webfig, I get the following error in the logs
This one I’m at a bit of a loss at - not sure why it’s ‘disassociated due to WPS’ when I’m actively trying to use WPS to get them to connect.
If anyone’s got any guidance on security settings I could change to get the existing network to connect, or can see something I’m doing wrong with WPS, any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
