Re: ZTE ZM8620 or Sierra EM7455 Compatibility

25mbps is fine. The local T-Mobile tower can't pump out more than 20mbps on Band 12. I only need it for a VoIP phone that will use under 250MB per month. I am curious about the ZM8620 now that I see in the 6.36RC40 changelog: " added support for ZTE ZM8620" I'd love to just buy it and test...

Re: RE: Re: ZTE ZM8620 or Sierra EM7455 Compatibility

We have tested MC7455 locally and  it works with RouterOS  6.36 in ppp serial mode. In routeros v7 this card will have mbim support.  We dont have ZTE ZM8620 and we cannot test them.  Would ppp prevent me from using LTE? Also I just noticed in the changelog for the latest RouterOS release candidate...

ZTE ZM8620 or Sierra EM7455 Compatibility

I didn't see either listed on the supported hardware page. Does this mean they won't work, or does it mean they weren't tested? I need an LTE card that works with T-Mobile USA Band 12 (700MHz) and those two are the only cards I can find that have Band 12. Has anyone used either one of those with any...

RB2011UAS-2HnD left antenna has become very loose

I've had my UAS-2HnD for about 3 weeks and noticed the left antenna (furthest from the LCD) has become very loose. At this point it just falls over and lies horizontally. The other antenna is tight and has no issues. Wondering if this has been an issue for anyone else? Can I open the routerboard and...

IPv6 DHCP Client Issue

I noticed a possible bug today regarding the IPv6 DHCP Client on my RB750G (exists in v 5.16 and 5.18): DHCP-Client was searching for IPv6 address on WAN interface with a /64 prefix. I realized my ISP was handing out /48 blocks instead, so I changed the prefix to a /48. The changing of the prefix se...

Re: Resetting Webfig

If you edited the Webfig skin and messed up, delete the JSON file in the root folder via FTP, it should bring back the default skin
Awesome - that worked. Thanks.

Using 5.14, is there a way to reset only Webfig? When I log in, I just get a blank grey screen. I must have messed up a template configuration or something.

Re: v5.14 released

I think I found a problem. On my 750G, eth2-5 were part of a single network with eth2 being the master port. I removed the master-port from ether5 and put ether5 into a bridge. I completely removed the bridge later, and when assigning ether2 to be the master port for ether5 again, RouterOS told me e...

Multiple SSID on RB751U-2HnD

I have been pleased with multiple RB750G's (one is going on 150 days of uptime!). I am looking to simplify things a bit and replace the 750G and Ubiquiti AP I have with a single 2HnD. However, I want it to have two SSIDs - one guest and one regular network. Does RouterOS support multiple SSIDs on a ...

Re: Block MAC from getting DHCP

Thanks, forgot to mention it's just a regular Linksys AP. I can block clients on it but I'd rather everything maintained on the Mikrotik (RB750G) that said, in the firewall I figured out blocking UDP from those specific MAC addresses will stop DHCP requests. However, why the traditional way of block...

Block MAC from getting DHCP

In a small business we have guest WiFi access but someone from next door (the only neighbor) was stealing the internet connection at all hours of the day. I have their MAC blocked (anything from their MAC gets dropped), so they can't access the internet. The current firewall filter I have is chain=f...

I figured this would be more hardware-oriented as this depends pretty much completely on the hardware's power. I am going to be in a college where the primary internet connection is 400mbps and everything is GigE with 10gigE backhaul between buildings. I don't expect to get all of that 400mbps, but ...

Re: VLAN Tagging on SwOS

I went back to tackle this issue today and it worked like I had it in my first image. DHCP from 750G -> Switch (tagged to untagged) -> MacBook. It takes 60 seconds for it to get a DHCP lease! It was working the whole time, I just gave up after ~20-30 seconds. But I let it sit for a minute and boom! ...

Re: VLAN Tagging on SwOS

I will rephrase. I posted that the other night slightly in haste..but I am still having issues. On my 750G, I created VLAN10 (with DHCP) on ether3. My MacBook supports VLAN tagging so I plugged it into port 3 and configured VLAN10 on the Mac and it worked as I expected (the regular ethernet interfac...

Re: MT as vlan switch

I have a RB750G which I was creating the VLAN tags on. I didn't put it into the mix yet, but I also have an RB250GS (managed switch). So I should be using the 250GS as the mediator between the 750G and the PCs? I will try that and see what happens.
