I’ve got a pair of HaLowLink 2 (JP) and setup one of them as an AP. Firmware is 2.11.13 (latest).
Edgecore EAP112 has a built-in Morse Micro system and a pair were working well as AP-STA configuration.
I tried connecting EAP112 (STA) to HaLowLink 2 (AP).
The radio association seemed good (temporarily) but IP communication didn’t work.
DHCP didn’t work.
By changing the SSID only, the EAP112 connects to another EAP112 (AP) quite well.
Another HaLowLink 2 as STA joins the network without an issue, without changing the AP side at all.
The opposite configuration, i.e., HaLowLink 2 as STA, and EAP112 as AP didn’t work either.
Apologies for the slow reply here. There shouldn’t be any incompatibility between an EAP112 and a HaLowLink hardware wise.
Does the EAP112 give you any visibility into the driver version it is using? The Japanese regulatory has been evolving and there may be instances where certain channels are no longer available.
The radio association seemed good (temporarily)
What do you mean by temporarily here? Did the EAP112 remain associated?
I’ve relocated the HaLowLink 2 (STA, the opposite case) by 3 meters (only) and it’s working well today against EAP112 (AP). I’m using 38 ch w/ 4MHz bandwidth.
I suspect another device is malconfigured or defective, and will try swapping the units.
What do you mean by temporarily here? Did the EAP112 remain associated?
I meant that the radio association seemed all right but unstable, often cause disruptions.
Back to the original question about HaLowLink 2 (AP) vs EAP112 (STA), the configuration seems to have a DHCP or another IP issue.
HaLowLink 2 (STA) has no issue with “this” HaLowLink 2 (AP), but EAP112 fails.
