3 hopes

[HaTjmn]

I using this code, and 3 boards of ESP32 S3,
I program all of them, and then I set via CLI the next commands:
Board #1 — connects to the internet router

set_sta "Test" "12345678"
set_ap "Repeater-1" "chainpass"
set_hostname rep-1
show
restart
Board #2 — connects to Board #1

set_sta "Repeater-1" "chainpass"
set_ap "Repeater-2" "chainpass"
set_hostname rep-2
show
restart
Board #3 — connects to Board #2

set_sta "Repeater-2" "chainpass"
set_ap "Repeater-3" "chainpass"
set_hostname rep-3
show
restart

When I connect to AP of board#1, it's succeeded and I tested with speed test - it's worked.
When I try to connect to my phone to board#2 ( Repeater-2) its failed.
but when I open CMD in my laptop that also connected to Test SSID, I succeeded to ping tyo board#2

my goal is to chain several hopes and in the last put my phone as client and to get internet
Please help me

Which version do you use? NAT router or repeater?

MAC-address rewriting is subtle with multiple layers. I would recommend using the NAT version for that. This ist known to work. Use different IP subnets for the different layers.
