That is a good idea. I could test connecting a laptop to the Gateway AP while standing at the Repeater AP. I would need to use a SSID the repeater does not have. Can the Repeater AP use a Directional and the Gateway AP use Omnidirectional? Thanks for chiming in on this topic. Was not finding any documentation about practical distances between APs for Meshing.

It is a big open area with a clear line of sight. Like a large stadium parking lot. The Repeater end has an 8 port switch with 5 surveillance cameras. So all the video traffic goes over the Mesh to the Gateway. Not sure I know how to tell what I get from the endpoint.

I am having trouble finding maximum distance documentation when installing two MR76 with Omni antennas on a pole. I see documentation saying they need to be at the same elevation, but I don't see a reference as to the maximum distance they should be installed. I am extending the wired network with the Repeater AP and the Dashboard shows the Mesh Speed to be 10.9 Mbps. I was expecting a higher speed, but concerned this may be due to the distance of 145m.
