RouterOS v3 Configuration and User Guide
Configure the station and add an IP address (10.1.0.2) to it:

Check whether you can ping the Access Point from Station:
[admin@Station] > ping 10.1.0.1
10.1.0.1 64 byte ping: ttl=64 time=3 ms
10.1.0.1 64 byte ping: ttl=64 time=3 ms
10.1.0.1 64 byte ping: ttl=64 time=3 ms
3 packets transmitted, 3 packets received, 0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max = 3/3.0/3 ms

WDS Station
Using 802.11 set of standards you cannot simply bridge wireless stations. To solve this problem, the
wds-
station
mode was created - it works just like a station, but connects only to APs that support WDS.
This example shows you how to make a transparent network, using the Station WDS feature:
Interface: To-WDS-AP
IP: 10.1.0.2
Interface: WDS-AP
SSID=wds-sta-test
[WDS_AP]
Internet
[WDS_Station]
Interface: Local
Wireless Client on
