Hey Jaime, check out my new favorite web comic, Breaking Cat News. The cats in the apartment upstairs speak Spanish. Like the Univision of Cat News. Makes it tough for Lupin who is deaf and has to read whiskers. Luckily Tabitha is multilingual. Tabitha has even caught the red dot!

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?

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.

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? -- Lewis Bergman 325-439-0533 Cell
