I keep hearing that it cuts your bandwidth in half on the AP side. Seems everyone (vendors) i talk to tells me to stay away from it.

Yesh. I just went through this a few weeks ago; all remotely. The hassle is that when you switch the Tranzeo to AP mode, you need to get into it again to enter the MAC address of the "partner". But if you then switch the MT into client mode, it will let you get back into the Tranzeo. Then finish up the MAC address rigmarole. Finally, go back to the MT and switch it to WDS as previously described.

Note that you may have to "hunt" for the SSID on the Tranzeo if it's never been an AP before.

Do the tranzeo first, and then hope everything connects when do you setup
the Mtik. :)

In WDS (not extended proprietary WDS like some vendors have),  BOTH
devices are in AP mode.  That's why you don't see WDS on the tranzeo
till you switch it to AP. Both devices will get the mac address of the
other radio.

On the Tranzeo:

1. Wireless Settings ->  Wireless Mode: Access Point
2. Apply
3. WDS (this is now visible)
4. Enter AP MAC Address 1 (this would be the MAC address of the

ie:
0000006300F6)
5. Apply

On the Mikrotik (no laughing all you CLI junkies, I can kick butt on a
Cisco... just not an Mtik)
1. Interface
2. Click the Plus button and choose WDS
3. Under the WDS tab of the window that pops up choose the master
interface
appropriately.
4. Under the WDS tab of the window that pops up enter the MAC address
of
the
Tranzeo in 00:00:00 format.
5. Add this new interface to the bridge group that your other interface
is
in.

That should be it.

I am trying to document these customers behind this Tranzeo CPE
(it's a
small repeater) and the arp proxy makes it one bit more
difficult.
Does anyone know how the Dude can give me the correct MAC if I
make a
device
with the right IP?  It obviously isn't simple ARP.

WDS mode or PTP mode (PxP mode on wireless settings) requires

What is odd to me is that Ubnt AirOS (and obviously Mikrotik)
CPEs
and
Mikrotik APs can do this.  Any idea why?

That's SOP in 802.11.

To not obfuscate the MAC addresses behind a Tranzeo, you need
to
turn
on
PTP mode and/or use WDS.
The key is "transparent bridge", and box-stock 802.11 devices
do not

do

transparent bridge.

Before the replacement 1-5 of the mik boxes would report

Subject: [Mikrotik] Strange DUDE problem

I have restarted my DUDE program for monitoring purposes.
But now seem to have a new issue with Tranzeo's.
When the Dude agent in a subnet does a scan for devices
(discovery)
it
will attach all the tranzeo mac addresses to a single
tranzeo
radio????
Any thoughts?
