@Dear Mike,
Please follow the steps:
1. Please update the latest firmware 2.4.5 for AP1300. You can download the firmware on the website.
https://www.cudy.com/pages/download-center/ap1300-1-0
2. Please reset all the three AP1300 that you want to work as the submesh AP. Setup the Wi-Fi settings of the main mesh AP1300.
3. Install them in the same network (in the same management VLAN). The mesh system will be installed automatically.
4. Please test and check if the network in working normally, as you want.

“Hello Cudy Hardware & Software Developer’s team!)
I have 4 (four) Cudy AP1300. For my business project, I need build MESH with multi SSID via many VLAN’s:
SSID1 – VLAN10 – 192.168.10.0/24 – CORP-WIFI
SSID2 – VLAN20 – GUEST-WIFI
192.168.20.0/24
ETH1 trunk-mode (include VLAN10-VLAN20-VLAN30) – VLAN30 – 192.168.30.0/24 – MGMT & mesh connector.
How I do it?
All switches in my company support vlans”

@Dear Damian,
Sorry, M3000 doesn’t support this feature.

“Is it possible to implement multiple SSIDs for the M3000 model? I need this for a separate IoT network (in NAT or bridge mode – your choice).”
