I don't understand about the need for directional antennas on both ends. My cell phone gets some internet reception with the current Access Point, the TP Link eap 110, that has 3 dBi omni directional antennas. I plan to experiment by replacing the omni directional antennas with directional...

I thought a bridge would be to connect two physical locations, but it makes sense there can't be two routers. There are nearly zero internet results for "Alfa N2S" so not much to go on. I am trying to push internet access into a forest area for security cameras, so I wanted to test it as a 10...

SOLUTION: When the Alfa N2S is used as an Access Point plugged into a Router, the Alfa should be configured as an AP Bridge, not AP Router. Having two routers distribute IP addresses is the apparent problem. Today, the client device could get an internet connection to the Router though it had...

So this appears correct. Android 10 will automatically connect to a remembered network. (Android 11 allows to set for manual connection of a remembered network). My network switched automatically, lost internet connection. I waited a few minutes (instead of switching back and forth) and...

Thanks. I will wait and see if it stays stable. Biggest surprise is if I installed it correctly the first time. The mac address table makes sense, I thought maybe both the router and access point assigned an ip address and that was the conflict. Thanks.

I have a Speedefy Router and am installing a new Alfa N2S wireless Access Point as an AP Router. I've only installed one other access point (EAP 110) that was plug and play, so don't have real experience. After configuring and rebooting the Router and Access Point, both the Router and Access...
