So the one in the middle, the KN-200, is in routing mode, with no IP's?
Go to either RG on either end, set them to bridging mode - plug in your
laptop to the Ethernet port and hit scan, you'll see the KN-200 in there.
I'm not understanding... you say it's not PtP, but you said it was PtP
before. RG<->KN-200<->RG<---ethernet--->AP-1000, correct?
So as I said, put the RG's and the KN in bridging mode, and then do the
routing on the AP.

I understand that but I failed to assign the radio ports the any ips and now
I need to get into it remotely via a wireless link not the ethernet port
that is why i was wondering how or if it is possible.

No its not just a PTP. Its a mix. We have the RG on the datacenter roof as
the gateway from their wired network to our wireless network. I tried having
everything is bridging mode as it was before and without the cisco in the
mix nothing worked as they were routing our ips to the radio on their roof
and it did not know what to do with them. So I HAD to make it a router in
order for it to know what to do with the traffic. Anyhow that part of the
link to the relay point is point to point. From that point past the relay
the links are PMP.
Our network is not down as I had to switch back to our T1 because I do not
have access to the ethernet ports on the kn-200 readly available. That is
why I want to link to it via the radio ports and restore settings.

Yeah its into a switch, I eventually am going to setup a Mikrotik box in the
datacenter as the gateway router but as a temporary measure I need a router
in the mix and need to use the current hardware in place to do this.
Thanks,
