MR52 access point in repeater mode

Hi community,

 

I would like to know why an AP is shown in repeater mode. What are the causes that make an AP work in this mode?

 

Thank you.

If it was working and then entered repeater mode, I would be 99% sure of a cabling issue.

Cabling issue or IP issue are the two main reasons

Recently had a customer with Cameras that went offline and several APs went into repeater mode across multiple sites at different times. It was a DHCP starvation issue.
