I believe I'm doing something wrong, but what it is, I don't know
I've followed the manual instructions at https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/display/ROS/WiFi .
I first created a security profile such as:I then created a common configuration such as:I created the channel interfaces such as:I then bind it all up:There are no error messages and checking /interface/wifi/actual-configuration looks sensible. Winbox GUI looks correct as well, although all the values are correct but grey.
It just doesn't work. The WiFi APs never go live.
BUT, if I go into the GUI for security, open my-authN and click on each item, the text goes from grey to black (with exactly the same setting). If I then go into configuration, open my-conf and click on each item, the text goes from grey to black.
Suddenly it all works.
But most odd - /interface/wifi/actual-configuration is 100% unchanged
If I delete everything and not bother with the configuration approach and just enter : it all works immediately
I've now repeated it twice, and it behaves the same way... I can't see why this behaviour happens
