Hello Guys,
now that 7.13 is out from the beta phase i decided to try again moving my infra into the new WiFi package.
My setup is made of 1 hEX as Router and CAPWAP and 3 wAP ac as acces point.
Capwap is working fine in the new wifi package and basic setup is ok... but i still have some question to be answered:
1. DATAPATH
on the old wifi package datapath can be set in manager forwarding mode, in that way (from my understanding) trafic is tunneled to the CAPsMAN and is not dependent on the L2 nework where the wAP is connected.
on the new wifi package there's no more such option
![Image]()
as result the wifi client ends to be connected to the L2 nework where wAP is connected to and the bridge selected on the datapath is just ignored.
i think docs is still not yep updated about this: https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/display/ROS/CAPsMAN
2. CANNELS
How shoud I select multiple modes?
![Image]()
For example 2GHz G/N
3. STEERING
How shoud i check that RRM and WNM are working correctly?
on the log i saw some of those entry:
here below my current CAPsMAN configuration, if someone's curious to look at that

on the log i saw some of those entry:
but that happeded only at the very beginning of the setup, before creating the neighor group and steering profile, now what i see in the logs is24:4C:AB:43:74:88@cap-wifi6 roamed to 24:4C:AB:43:74:88@cap-wifi3, signal strength -66
is there any way i can check that 802.11k and 802.11v beacon are sent correctly?94:45:60:5E:93:88@cap-wifi3 disconnected, SA Query timeout, signal strength -91
94:45:60:5E:93:88@cap-wifi2 connected, signal strength -81
here below my current CAPsMAN configuration, if someone's curious to look at that
