Switching between APs as needed and keeping it all straight MAC

Sorry Ken. I summer you don't have 2 Bethesda in house to set it
up in a lab. I would think shortening the time is your best bet.
Now how short.... No idea. ARP traffic is tiny so I can't imagine
that causing an issue. Maybe a cpu issue on all sides trying to
keep up with them?

Nope, you already have my suggestion.
Can you try your idea of a 10s timeout?

There are 4 SSIDs. But customer has each device “join” each

Or are you saying make all the SSIDs the same? I don’t think
it matters, there are 4 wireless networks, even if they are
all named the same.

Why not do 4 SSIDs? Add the profiles once and then done.
I think your issue is probably the APs, not the bridge/switch
part but it doesn't really help.

I have a customer who insisted he needed 2 dual band wireless
APs 25 feet apart in his ranch house. So we have a managed
non-WiFi Mikrotik RB2011 in his basement, feeding two Netgear
routers in wireless AP mode. I have the LAN ports bridged
rather than using the switch chips, since there's plenty of
CPU power and it gives more visibility into the traffic.
So counting 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, the customer has 4 SSIDs and I
think his devices like iPads are jumping back and forth
between networks. And I think bad things are happening
because the bridging table can't keep track of which port the
clients are on. I see weird things like the same amount of
traffic going out the ports to both wireless APs. I never see
a MAC address on both bridge ports, but it is acting like the
Mikrotik is flooding traffic to both ports.
Should I be tweaking parameters like reducing the ageing time
below the default 5 minutes? Should I be using the switch
chips and not bridging?
Is this a typical problem when devices can choose between
multiple APs close together on the same bridged LAN?
