Re: Serious request for the new year.....

This is happening on dozens of my boards, as discussed by other users. This is a hardware/software issue. Older boards do not get packet loss, drop in bandwidth between two boards via ethernet, mismatch in ethernet link status and port flapping.. You see, this is the problem. I can find dozens of po...

Dont forget to add a rule in your routes with the marked connection.

Also VERY important, make sure that rule is above your main rule or else it wont get seen first and your new routes will goto default gateway instead

Re: Process to get an upgrade license key for a routerboard

Its a free upgrade. Just update your 133 to 4.17, then update to 5.xx

*4.17 seems to be the safe cause if you update to a lower 4.xx the CPU stays at 100% and its hell on earth to do anything on the board when this happens.
