Open Mesh Settings
Open Mesh is a network of interconnected node APs, of which only one has a
wired connection to the network (and the Internet). The other AP nodes provide
wireless links to each other and some support connections to wireless clients. The
m
esh network not only extends wireless connectivity over a greater distance, but
also provides backup links should one node in the network fail.
When setting up an AP to be a node in a mesh network, select one radio interface
(2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, or 6 GHz) and configure it to operate on a specific channel (do
not select Auto).Se
t up other AP nodes
to operate on the same radio interface,
channel, and with the same SSID.
