I tried using WDS with the backhauls but I dropped some throughput so I went to all AP/Client on those. Using UBNT for most backhauls now....... Just changed my last one over from WDS last night as a matter of fact. That one I had a sub running off of due to no better signal, took care of that yesterday...... Now we're clean and legal.
