Dear,
I have bought a Mikrotik NetBox 5ax and Ubnt AMO 5G 19 120 Sector Antenna. I want to replace my Omnitik 5AC with 3 Mikrotik NetBox 5AX with Ubnt 120-degree Sector antenna to cover 360 degrees.
But when I replaced Netbox 5AX, the signal performance was very bad.
wheres on SXT and litebeam M5 shows a -90 signal it is worst. While Omnitik has -45signal and 150tx/rx.

cool story

There a problem with the new MikroTik AX outdoor APs. I have the mANTBox 15AX and poor performance this replaced an older 15 AC antenna and coverage is terrible.

Submit ticket to MikrotTik or post your config here.

I assume same config used from prior antenna? Be sure country is set as well as antenna-gain for the external antenna.

no result after spending a lot of time on this.
Can anyone ask to Mikrotik?

You can ask Mikrotik yourself: https://mikrotik.com/support
It is very easy to contact them.
But first you should contact your distributor where you bought your device.

Too bad

Can anyone ask to Mikrotik?

Have you already contacted support? Sent an supout file? Why should we ask MikroTik?

Is there any user who uses this NetBox 5AX ??

Have you searched this forum, there are more topics about the NetBox.

please share reviewes

Can you share your current config?

/export file=anynameyoulike

Remove serial and any other private info.

Still no signal on ubnt CPE in site survey.
I placed ubnt in from of Mikrotik NetBox 5AX

/interface wifi
set [ find default-name=wifi1 ] channel.band=5ghz-ax .frequency=5500 \
.skip-dfs-channels=all .width=20/40/80/160mhz configuration.antenna-gain=\
20 .chains=0,1 .country=Russia .distance=2 .mode=ap .ssid=test \
.tx-chains=0,1 .tx-power=28 disabled=no

Lets see:

  • .frequency=5500 - Apart from not knowing the usage a fixed channel is always good!
  • .skip-dfs-channels=all - Seems a bit contradictionary with the previous selected channel
  • .width=20/40/80/160mhz - not many devices support 160MHz, sure you want to use it?

My best guess would be conflicting settings. Can you remove .skip-dfs-channels=all and set .width=20/40/80mhz and give it another try?
Also, consider not settings chains.

I have checked no improvement in the result

10

Does it help when gain is set to 19? And when you unset TX Power (setting it to max power in accordance with regulations implicitly)?
Is the antenna well attached to the NetBox?
Have you followed all suggestions?

Can you post a new export (/interface/wifi/export is sufficient) after making all changes?

11

I have tried many ways to downgrade and upgrade the firmware.
but no result.
Do I need to go back basebox 5?

12

This will make it running at least; @miankamran7100 execute on your NetBox 5 ax CLI.

/interface wifi set [ find default-name=wifi1 ] !channel.frequency .width=20/40/80mhz !configuration.antenna-gain !.chains !.distance !.tx-chains !.tx-power

As already said in another topic: frequency 5500 is a) DFS channel and b) not allowed in Russia. So that’s basically why it is not transmitting any signal at all.

I can’t see Mikrotik NetBox 5ax APs “SSID” when Start Scan LiteBeam M5 and not seen in SXTsq Lite 5

why is it…???

configuration.antenna-gain=20

Can you lower it down, 20 is high

15

I have tried
5GHz ax
5GHz AC
5GHz A/N
20/40/80 Mhz
20/40 Mhz

I’m depressed and want to throw NetBox 5ax in the Bin




NOOO result

same problem

16

You’re advised to do one thing and you come back telling that doing something else didn’t help. Which means that giving advices to you is useless. So not a Mikrotik problem.

17

Dear, I take care of your answer and I have tried the advice you are giving me. I spent a lot of time, so that’s why. But I’m not getting the least result I need.

18

There’s a chance some mistakes slipped in by accident, so please post the configuration with the latest suggestions.

19

I will absolutely do this

Can you please suggest the configuration like
Band: for non AC Sxtlite 5, litebeam M5
Channel:
Countery:
Etc

20

in your radio configuration, change what you have defined for frequency
you specified 5200-5800

replace with

5180 [new line]
5240
5765

Also set DFS to SKIP ALL.

Try the 5180, or 5240 frequencies.
