Review: Great but default programming is wonky - The MikroTik wAP ax is actually a pretty solid little access point once you get it up and running. Performance has been good, stability has been good, and RouterOS gives you a ton of flexibility if you know your way around MikroTik gear. That said, the factory configuration is programmed a little funky. I initially thought the unit was defective because it wouldn’t respond through the normal setup methods like WinBox/web on the PoE port. Turns out the default firewall/config blocks management access on the PoE ether1 interface, which is confusing since that’s the port most people naturally plug into first for setup. Once I figured that out and adjusted the config, everything worked fine. Overall, good hardware and good performance, but MikroTik could definitely make the out-of-box experience less confusing.
Review: Great coverage for my outdoor cameras - Great coverage for my outdoor cameras Have it used Mikrotik for 20 years now started using for my own WISP setup in rural Oklahoma.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Router + AP
*by J***J on 5 February 2025*

5Ghz channel not seen on some devices... Only the 2.4 Found some postings online if you have this issue.... You need to manually set the 5ghz channel frequency. I'm not expert but i set it to 5745 as someone suggested. Seems to work now. I am using it as both a router and AP which is cool. I don't really need hard wired devices so seems like a good option. 300/300 internet. I'm havent played with crazy Firewall rules or VPNs etc. Have WAN in eth 1 and a little mini pc server in eth2. Everything came online pretty quick ~30 minutes and stumbling on this 5ghz channel issue. Plan to grab a mikrotek managed switch and plug into eth2 for a couple other hardwired devices but this works for now.
