@Dear Kpe4eT,
Sorry for replying so late due to the Chinese Spring Festival！
LT700 only can work as the main mesh router. So you can’t install the mesh system with two LT700. If you want to make the second LT700 working as an access point. Please follow the steps:
1. Login to the web page of the second LT700. Go to “Advanced Settings” —“LAN” function page. Change the IP address to another one in case conflict with the first LT700. Such as 192.168.10.2. Then you must login to the web page via the new IP address.
2. Disable the DHCP Server of the second LT700 on “Advanced Settings” —“DHCP Server” function page.
3. Connect the second LT700’s LAN port to the first LT700’s LAN port .
The second LT700 will work as an Access Point.
“Good afternoon. I have purchased two Cudy LT700 devices. I am having trouble adding them to mesh network. When I scan, they do not see each other. I have tried to switch one of them to AP mode, but there is no such option in the menu. The Wizard does not have an “operating mode” option.
When trying to connect via an Android app, it gives the error “-2 Network Error””

@Dear Kala,
Please run the quick setup wizard. Then you can choose the working mode.
“Just downloaded the app and it does not have “mode” option.
How to connect as extender?”

@Dear J,
AP3600 supports Mesh function. You can install mesh system with two AP3600.
In addition, you can also use the M3600 (which work as the Access Point mode) to install mesh with AP3600.
“Hello, if I get AP3600 ceiling mount access point, am I able to form a mesh with only two or more AP3600, or do I need an additional controller unit like a M3600 or C200P?
Alternatively, if I get one AP3600 and one M3600, and I set the M3600 to Wireless Access Point mode, can it still act as a controller for the AP3600?"
