Hi,
I would like “to thank” the whole team mikrotik for having destroyed a really nice platform rb711, in looking for savings. I protest against such an approach.
At least 30% of purchased equipment “rb711 MMCX” in the last four months have:
Problems with memory and gives the error: kernel panic and restarts every few minutes
The problem of symmetry signal RX / TX to 30dB difference!
The problem with working in low temperatures, where there is a sudden loss of power of radio track
Problem with the size of a standard MMCX connector
The tragedy, never until now did not have so many problems with the newly purchased equipment.
do something about it, devise an official position and do not you hiding your heads in the sand.

I agree! The original topic was locked while the problem is not resolved.
We have completely stopped buying rb711, because for those problems not worth it.
Problems with TX / RX differencce 30 db are known from beginning November 2011
New problems arise from the cold. Users on forum (Czech Republic) reports that components fall off due to frost! I make photo

that problem has been solved already, if you still have a device with big tx/rx signal differences, send it to warranty repair. all new devices that are shipping since last month can’t have such issues anymore.
Ok, but
You never tell what was causing the issue?
Temporary solution to remove the RF shielding plate. The solution we do not like.
You were not willing to tell what serial number rb711 are free of the problem. This “policy Mikrotik” we do not like. So stay with RB411 + cards
We can not buy rb711 and hope that this series will have a good
I’ve registered on this board specially to reply in this topic.
The problem is that we bought NEW RB711-5Hn from WISP.PL in second half of January and the problem still exists!
Client called me (28.01) that he hasn’t got access to the Internet. I was log in to the base and i saw that his CPE is not registered. We decided to go on his roof (in snow, with tiles in ice and temperature was -15 C) and change CPE to new with RB from our last delivery. After few hours the same client call me again that his Internet is very slow. I’m logging on his CPE and what I saw? Signal like -65/-89 and his CPE often disconnecting). After few days, when temperature was about 0C what was happened? Signal on the same CPE is -65/-65! And that’s not a secluded case, we had a lot of cases in the same time like that.
Second reason of my decision to write here is time of receiving RB sent to warranty repair. I’m (and not only me, I read on other boards ie. Trzepak.pl that other Polish owners of RB have the same problem) waiting for receive RB a lot of moths!
So, why the ISPs must freeze or loss (because of dissatisfied clients) money because of your mistake?!

this doesn’t mean they bough it from MikroTik in january. MikroTik started shipping new devices in january. Your distributor possibly purchased it last year.

no, new revision has hardware difference that doesn’t require removing of the shield. there is no difference other than it simply doesn’t have this issue.
I understand that. But explain to us how these new revisions to know? Distributors still have the old defective pieces. And those we do not want to buy! I explained it clearly?
Are you joking me normis? What is difficult to take a 2 photos, first with bad series and second with NEW series and tell to us, what is different? We just want to know that! We want to know if our seller after RMA send to us NEW RB or send the bad series? It’s hard to understand?
