Hello, We are having a very similar problem. The clients that are connected have very poor ping times, even if they have good signal and ccq. Most of the clients drop off andf cannot connect again, or continuously reconnect. We have these issues on two of our 50 towers. The two towers with the probl...

The email notification worked for all the beta versions we used up until version 2 beta 10 ( i think) its been a while now so i dont remember positively. The smtp server works, we use it all the time. Many times with the last several dude versions i get the error message "Invalid TO address&quo...

I am running the dude v2. It does not send out notification emails at all, and hasn't for several versions. This is a major problem for me because that is what lets me know my network has a problem. Is anyone else having this problem?

dancuofzhills

Thanks for considering my idea

In the past i have made screenshots of google earth images and patched them together with photoshop. I would like the dude to act like radio mobile and pull down maps automatic. Yahoo has a free road map service, i would rather have roads than imagery.

dancuofzhills

I am also having this problem. i posted earlier today with this problem becuase i had not yet realized that someone else already posted it. It is here: http://forum.mikrotik.com//viewtopic.php?t=12039

dancuofzhills

I'm not sure what it would involve. But it would be excellent if the dude had a way to automatically pull down road/sat image maps that resolved better as you zoom in. also we could then have devices plotted according to coordinates instead of eyeballing it.

On my dude program. The general tab for equipment will show many times that there are two services 1 down and 1 acked or two different statuses somehow. But the equipment only has one service assigned. I am using the dude beta 11. All the devices that existed before i upgraded to this version have t...

I haven't been able to add new device types. I run the dude on a p4 2.8Ghz HT CPU with 1024 Mb ram (running windows 2003). I noticed much better performance and resource usage in this version, but i cannot add new device types. I have tried it at the server and client machine, i have also tried copy...

I have double checked and double checked again for loops and verified that there are none. Everything works great whe i leave the additional ip address of the router disabled. It is very weird... I normally do have redundant connections on my network that i let spanning tree control, but i had those...

I know that MT will respond to all ip addresses it is configured with, the reason i have the two ips is because one of them dst-nats to another computer on the other side of the MT router. One thing i still wonder about is whether or not the problem was with my MT router, or with the other devices t...

I am not using the procurve switch, but i have fixed my storm problem.. at least for now anyway. My border router(MT v 2.9.30) has multiple ip addresses assigned to it, and one of those addresses was 172.16.0.57. The primary ip for my router is 172.16.0.1. i ran a program called iptraf (kind of like...

dancuofzhills

I Have a bridged network running stp. I was running rstp, but it makes the storm far worse than with no stp or regular stp. I too am getting broadcast storms. I've turned off all redundant connections that i normally leave enabled for backup purposes, i've looked everywhere for a loop but can't find...

dancuofzhills

That is a good idea, but the problem with setting this up is figuring out how to make a rule somewhere that counts failed logins, if i could figure that out i would just need to have it set to add src address to list.
That is the part i'm not sure how to do..

dancuofzhills

That is definately a good preventative measure, thanks!

I would still like a rule to add the offending addresses to a list that i can drop with the firewall, but some ideas take time to become reality.

dancuofzhills

lately i also have been thinking about figuring out a way to block an ip address after repeated failed login attempts.
I do not want to use an exclusive accesslist because i never know where i'm gonna be when i need to login and get access.
I havent been able to figure out a way.

dancuofzhills

I have been using STP on my bridged wireless network for about a year now with no problems. About 6 months ago i tried enabling RSTP and the new bridge-test package, and it was not successful. Any system i enabled it on would stop passing ip traffic, and i had to MAC Telnet in to fix the problem. So...

dancuofzhills

Have you tried removing some of the radio cards and testing again? If you are using the high power atheros cards (like SR2 or NMP8602) you have to make special provisions for using more than two at a time. Other cards have similar limitations. It is because the cards will draw more power than the pc...

dancuofzhills

those improvements would help me a lot also!

dancuofzhills

I too have run into situations where multiple address list fields would have been usefull!
Please incorporate!

dancuofzhills

The router is not performing masquerading, only natting. The router is connecting two subnets together perfectly, i just would like mac addresses to traverse the nat if possible. Example: Enduser(10.0.1.50, 00:50:60:80:80:80) --> wlan1-MT Router-(ether1 00:50:60:70:70:70 --> bandwidth manager(172.16...

I would like to block all traffic between my internet subscribers. But i do not want to block traffic between my infrastructure equipment. I keep my infrastructure on a separate ip address range than my customers. Network: 172.16.0.0/20 Infrastructure: 172.16.0.1-172.16.0.254 Customers: 172.16.1.1-1...

Hi, Does anyone know if there is a way to set up a routed system, without having the routers mac address show up when the packets arrive at the destination? As below: CLIENT ----> MT ROUTER ----> BANDWIDTH MANAGER/DCHP SERVER I need the bandwidth manager above to see the clients actual mac address f...

We have specially modified PCI to mPCI adapter cards that have 3.3v leads attached directly to the power supply. I have about 40 systems working in the field great, on towers. Some have up to 7 SR-series mPCI radio cards. Those systems are working great in the field with the via C3 motherboards. i h...

dancuofzhills

I use many via C3 motherboards in pvc boxes on towers, they work great with every version of MT i have tried. i started using those boards during version 2.9.19 i believe.
About the power issues, i am aware of the pci bus power limitations and thats not what the problem is. Good suggestion though!

dancuofzhills

I had the same situation. I found the following solution that works. i created a bridge on my root router. I added the wan to the bridge and i added an EoIP tunnel to the bridge. I then configured the other end of the tunnel on an access point in the feild. My customer has a dedicated wds connection...

dancuofzhills

The only reason i care about the time is because i have them run an automatic backup script that labels the file with the date and time. The other reason is because it makes the syslog almost useless

I will keep playing with the NTP and see if i cna get that working.
Thanks.

dancuofzhills

On all my routerboard and wrap mikrotik systems the clock resets to Jan 1st 2000 on every reboot, i am constantly setting the clock hoping that it will keep time. Ive also set up the systems as a NTP client, and set one of my PC based MT systems at my office as the server. The NTP server works for d...

dancuofzhills

I always use quality power supplies for those systems, because i know the 3.3v off the power supply probably isn't regulated as good as the one on the motherboard. What would you recommend for sheilding on my cards? It is a good idea but i do not have any sheilding in place on my current rigs. Ive n...

We use the PCI to MiniPCI 4 slot adapters all the time. One thing you have to watch out for though is how many watts of power do your mini cards use... A PCI bus only has 25 watts to go around for everything using it. The ubiquiti SR2 and SR5 cards use about 5 watts each. After i had problems with 4...

I run lots of amd servers without trouble. But i think im going to start finding a way to set up these two systems on intel platforms and see if they work any better. I have already invested so much money into re-replacing these that it may be a couple of weeks yet before i can switch them out again...

I would never usually buy sis, but with the support nightmare i've been going through for the last few months i am about ready to try anything! i never use intel for anything either, but i am now considering purchasing another system based on intel.

I am running the CPU test now because it doesn't require rebooting, tonight when there is not much traffic i will runthe memory-test I did run the program call memtest from a bootable cd on this ram on a different computer and it passed, but i will run the MT version anyway.

One of the systems has 2.9.19 and the other has 2.9.26. The v .19 server has an expired license and cannot upgrade. The NICS are Via VT6122 Gigabit Ethernet cards. the systems also have an onboard VT6102 rhine ethernet cards, but i do not have these enabled or performing any funtion. The motherboard...

I have many (about 50) mikrotik systems deployed on my wireless network. About 15 of them are PC computer based, and they always work excellent. The two main systems at my main office however lockup constantly and is causing me very much grief. Those two systems have to be watched over 24/7 to be su...

I too use radio mobile, but im not sure either how it gets the maps. The reason i havent directly used the images from radio mobile is when your zoomed out, and you use "merge maps" it comes out very low resolution and does not show minor roads. I realize that i can zoom in to individual a...

dancuofzhills

Does anyone have any suggestions on where to get good background maps for the dude? i like the one that they show on the download page... it looks kinda like a goodle map, but where do i get them?? Ive found some other map sources but i am not really satisfied with any of them for one reason or anot...

dancuofzhills

Not to sound greedy, but i think it would also be excellent if mikrotik decided to integrate their client/server bandwidth tester into dude as one of the tools. And if it was in there it would be nice to have the option to specify the source and target of the test, like they did with the ping tool.

dancuofzhills

It would be great if mikrotik would integrate their syslog server with the dude. I have been searching for a good syslogging daemon for a while now and can never seem to find one that i like much. The mikrotik syslog daemon is OK but it could stand to improve some. I'm sure if they integrated it int...

i am now running the v2 beta 1 dude. whenever i attempt to set options under settings on the left side so that i can specify my default parameters the dude will crash. I figure this is just a bug they have yet to work out, but i thought i would bring it to their attention here. Can anyone else set t...

dancuofzhills

I went into dude, and i saw that there is an option under the server config where you can specify that it is running as a service. Somehow i missed this before, after switching this it hasn't crashed in two days. And it is running as a service.
I will export my file and send it to MT though.

I have two MT systems running on skt754 motherboards, with sempron processors. They lockup freqquently, they have the os installed on a 128mb flash on a converter, and they have a PCI to mPCI adapter card with atheros radios (ubiquiti sr cards) I have the same setups running on socket 370 mainboards...

I have ran the dude for months now, and every version has had some crash problems. The rc8 seems to be a little more stable but i am still having crashes once every couple of days at least. I tried installing it as a service, and i seems to crash even more often, several times a day. I did notice ex...

I had originally tried using regular src and dst nats but it did not work. It seemed like i needed special routes set up to tell the MT box that the certain public ip is on my private interface. I couldn't set up any routes to make it work. I ended up making a eoip tunnel between my router and a vir...

dancuofzhills

This happened to me also, running on some x86 computer systems. The only way to get them back up was to mac telnet to them(because they are on top of towers there was no console access), and remove the rstp package. Regular winbox/telnet/ssh was all down only mac telnet would work, and was very slow...

To answer the first question, my isp gave me a block of 5 ip addresses for me to assign to devices. My isp's router is the gateway. I actually have connections from 3 different isps and i have 5 ip addresses available on each, i hope to load balance the three together and distribute some of the ips ...

i am implementing a new nat router for my customer network. Most of my customers use a private address, but some are using public ip addresses directly.

I have been using the dude since its infancy, and now i could not work without it!

Also, it would be tremendous if there was like a snmp data list or something like that. Wh...
