To connect your MikroTik router to a wireless access point, you have to:

To establish a wireless client connection to an access point:

The SSID must match exactly – including capitalization.

The Band must be compatible – i.e., both devices must support and use the same frequency band (2.4GHz or 5GHz).

Radio Name is an identifier for display purposes only and does not affect connectivity.

Option Analysis:

A.✔Required – Matching SSID is essential.

B.✘Not Required – Radio Name is just a display label in tools like Winbox.

C.✔Required – Band compatibility is critical to ensure the device can “see” and connect to the AP.

Extract from Official MTCNA Course Material – Wireless Client Configuration:

“To connect to an AP, the client must use the same SSID and operate on a compatible band and frequency.”

Extract from René Meneses MTCNA Study Guide – Wireless Modes:

“SSID and band must match to connect. Radio name is not used in the authentication or association process.”

Extract from Terry Combs Notes – Wireless Settings:

“SSID is like the network name, and it must be identical. Mismatched bands (e.g., 2.4 vs 5GHz) will prevent discovery.”
