On the AP in default or in your own made the pre-shared-key, wpa-unicast-ciphers

profile as an encryption algorithm choose wpa-psk. Specify and wpa-group-cipher

On the Client do the same. Encryption algorithm, wpa-group-cipherand pre-shared-keymust be the same as specified on AP, wpa-unicast-ciphermust be one of the ciphers supported by Access Point

4.3.22Troubleshooting

Description

If I use WDS and DFS, the routers do not connect to each other!

As the WDS routers must operate at the same frequency, it is very probable that DFS will not select the frequency that is used by the peer router.

RouterOS does not send any traffic through Cisco Wireless Access Point or Wireless Bridge

If you use CISCO/Aironet Wireless Ethernet Bridge or Access Point, you should set the Configuration/Radio/I80211/Extended (Allow proprietary extensions) to off, and the Configuration/Radio/I80211/Extended/Encapsulation (Default encapsulation method) to RFC1042. If left to the default on and 802.1H, respectively, you won't be able to pass traffic through the bridge.
