DS-WiFi4 Software Question

Good day.

We recently received our DS-WIFI4 kit and are getting it assembled.

In the manual it refers to some Mikrotik software and has a link to their website. Is the program we are looking for their "Router OS 7"? If so, which packages are required and is this something we need to purchase a license for?

EDIT: OK. I went ahead and downloaded WinBox and the MIPSBE package. No problems there.

However, now I am at the bridging portion (page 9/27) and I have ether1 but no wlan for interface choice. This creates a problem further along on the setup. Any ideas?

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Dear Charles,

thank you for contacting us. I'm glad that you found the firmware package. Regarding the issues about wlan, I see two possibilites, either there is no wlan present/connected or there was an issue with updating the firmware package and you can try to repeat the process.

Best regards,

I updated the firmware again and went through the entire setup from the beginning. I added ether1 to my bridge ports but I still do no see a "wlan" in the drop-down. (see image)

Should I be connected to a POE ethernet switch instead of directly to my laptop?

Should I select one of the other options from the list?
