In a mesh network setup involving multiple access points (APs), in some troubleshooting case, you need to distinguish which APs are serving as Root and which are functioning as Repeaters.

You can easily check this information through the local GUI by following these steps:

  • Navigate to "Monitor" on the main menu.
  • Select "Wireless" from the submenu.
  • Click on "WDS Uplink Info" to view details about the Root AP.
  • For information on Repeater APs, refer to the "WDS Downlink Info."
