I've got a total of 3 PicoStation2 units.
I have two outdoor devices that I'm connecting these units to.
I need both of these outdoor devices to connect to the 3rd unit.
It can be a mesh network. I would like to use DHCP.
What settings do I need to use?

Sorry, I can't guess what you really want.

Ubiquiti AirOS doesn't support anything
like a 'mesh' network. Dave

3 Pico = 1 AP and 2 clients that each have a 'device' (e.g. camera) attached to them?

Where's mesh fit into this picture? Are they spaced so far apart that they need to relay the data? In that case the middle unit in the bucket brigade can be set to be the AP with the others being stations (just turn off client isolation)... the bandwidth will be reduced as the AP relays but it does work (I'm using that exact setup to relay video over a mile: 1/2 mile at a time).

Its fun to guess... but better to know.

I have two outdoor electronic signs that operate over TCP/IP. The idea is to link them to a third AP that you can plug a computer into.

Never mind. I figured it out. Was simpler than expected.
