Hi

My customer is facing a problem where in the same office they have got 7 APs as gateways and 3 APs as repeaters.

All of them are bound to the same template so network settings are the same all across.

The problem is if the user tries to connect to the repeater AP he fails to get a DHCP IP (the client machine shows "no Internet" and the Dashboard shows "no DHCP response" for that particular client.

The users get IP fine when connected to any other AP and once they have the DHCP lease and they roam to any of the repeater APs, they continue to work fine.

Anyone faced the same issue on repeaters?

Thanks,

No it is a live site we are just upgrading from old MR18s to MR44s so couldnt do a lot of invasive testing.

Well, there is no configuration regarding mesh (that I remember at least). Have you tried opening a case with support?
