Your upload speed will become the limit on download speed...so if you don't need to time with other AP's then you'll do better to switch the up/down ratio to 50/50.

Awesome. Thank you for the quick replies.

It'll work just fine. We actually have a couple redundant links using RSTP that are just SMs pointing to another tower.

Like Ken, said, it's not a long term solution, but for what you are doing it would work exactly as you expect.

I have done it. Make sure SM isolation isn’t on. I wouldn’t use it as a long term solution, but for what you’re describing, I have done it and it worked.

Subject: [AFMUG] PMP100 Stand Alone / Backhaul From SM?

I'm looking for a quick fix while I reconfigure some customers.

I have fiber feeding a single PMP100 5 GHz AP connecting to 5 SMs. I'm about to lose the fiber. Can I add a 6th SM and use that connection as temporary backhaul? Will all the SMs effectively behave like they're just a L2 switch?

I don't have access to the location to setup a proper backhaul. I'm setting up a new AP at a different location, but I'm short on time and want to make sure the customers stay up somehow while the new site is setup (recognizing it will be at a reduced capacity as a result of using airtime twice).

-Chris
