MikroTik hAP ac3
I don't know if the MikroTik hAP ac3 has been addressed with an issue. I picked one up. Its setup to mesh with OTA nodes. It will not start working the mesh to other nodes till you his scan wifi.To detect other nodes after a power cycle it will not detect other nodes till you hit wifi scan. Then it works fine to the next reboot. 

Im running the lates nightly build.

I have not experienced this
I have not experienced this with my hAPac3.  At various times I have run mesh on both 2.4 and 5 GHz and it has had not problems connecting to other nodes.  Obviously they have to be close since there is not all that great of antennas on the hAPac3.

I have one that's a few feet
I have one that's a few feet away but won't connect till I hit the scan. Once I get everything moved I might just turn off RF mesh. I have an outdoor antenna.

hap-AC3->node 5GHz->node 2GHz
Hi, Dave:

I had Nightly 20240123 on my hAP-ac3 and it was configured as an Access Point on 5 GHz.
I changed my hAP-ac3 from a 5GHz Access Point to a 5 GHz node on channel 183@20 MHz.
It linked with my RBSXTsqHP5nD.
I changed my hAP-ac3 from 5 GHz node to 2 GHz node on channel 6@20 MHz.
It linked wit my GL-iNET AR750 and AR300M16.
I loaded Nightly 20240302 and configured the hAP-ac3 as a 5 GHz Access Point.
I see it on my cellphone.
I configured the hAP-ac3 as a 5 GHz node on channel 183@20 MHz.
It connected with my RBSXTsqHP5nD.
I configured it as a 2 GHz node on channel 6 at 20 MHz.
It linked wit my GL-iNET AR750 and AR300M16.

Am I doing something different than what you did?

Hello Chuck, I just got back
Hello Chuck, I just got back here. Been setting up Voip.ms the last two days. Making adjustments to the settings. This PBX is amazing once you get it configured. Then tweak the adjustments. 

Anyways. I think its working fine now. I made a mistake about three days ago. Plugged my bullet straight to the network while I was tired. I started seeing strange IP popping up on the network that shouldn't have been. IP scanner used and found the bullet. lol It took over every device one by one. I had to crash the whole network to recover. oops. I started setting everything with IP address and VLAN now. will plug the bullet back into a aredn device soon.
