HI,
I'm using a Flint 2 MT6000.
Did someone already try to extend guest-Wifi (default) to a wired dumb-AP running openwrt?
Im trying with Luci but not working, some one have a tutorial or instructions?

Thanks in advance

I have done that with my Marble, but on an openWRT repeater router using luci-relay on that repeater.
I used that tutorial on the repeater router with openWRT: [OpenWrt Wiki] Wi-Fi Extender/Repeater with relayd
Bear in mind that the source of Internet connection on the repeater must be guest-WiFi for all working well.
You don't need to do anything on your Flint 2. All is on the repeater router.

I was not able to implement that solution in my scenario. :frowning:
if I follow WRT forum page for that ([OpenWrt Wiki] Guest Wi-Fi on a dumb wireless AP using LuCI) my new wifi network was not able to attribute IP to attached devices....

Depending of the model of repeater router (my model is a Xiaomi AC2350 for repeater) mileage may vary a lot. I tried first in my repeater with the "Guest WiFi on a dumb wireless AP using LuCi", but it did not work. If you follow the relayd tutorial it should work, but bear in mind that the results could be different on your device.
