Does anyone have this model working with 2 wan and the failover an loadbalance working?

darkprocess · Fri Jun 17, 2016 5:53 pm

It's not a problem of modele but of setup

Can you please tellme were my setup is wrong please

Several things:

1. You are not using HW switching (no port has master-port options set), so this settings seem wrong. They should do nothing at best:

/interface ethernet switch port
set 0 default-vlan-id=1
set 2 default-vlan-id=2

2. Your 02lan interface is a bridge member, so the following configuration snippet is wrong. Never assign IP address to the bridge members, you should only assign it to the bridge interface itself.

/ip address
add address=10.1.1.2/24 comment=defconf interface=02lan network=10.1.1.0

These might not be related to your problem, though. The config in general looks messy, you probably do not understand what you're doing. I suggest you removing your current configuration and starting building new one from scratch, one feature at a time. Also please make sure you understand what exactly you are trying to achieve.

Talking about hAP lite in general- it is definitely possible to setup this tiny thing for dual-wan. I have one in my lab at home, it's incredibly flexible despite the price.

Can anyone send me an functional export of a harp lite with 2 wan a lan in bridge wit the wifi and the loadbalance and failover functional?

s54mtb · Fri Oct 14, 2016 10:26 am

I have AP (groove, L4) with home LAN & internet access. Now I would like to add another AP which can bridge LAN to this WiFi and work as AP + isolated AP (for guests) at the same time. Is hAP lite OK for such task?

Fri Oct 14, 2016 11:49 am

It is. The question is what will be the physical result in terms of wifi connection...

Yeah hAP Lite can do it

Can this box be use to do a Dual WAN? Switch/ over/ Failover and /or Bandwidth Bonding? - Is that a function of the Router OS Level rather the box? Please guide. Thanks.

We have a 1 or 2 machines at a remote dusty workshop type location (where the DSL is crappy & the backup 3G USB modem is nothing better either) where putting anything expensive or complex (subject to maintenance) is out of the question.

It is. But always take into account that all ethernets share common 100Mbit lane to the CPU and the CPU is not the fastest ever at all...

Thanks. True. The performance wont be phenomenal, but the location does not have the bandwidth anyways. So, at the cost of a consumer router I'd prefer the HabLite.

Is there a guide or Settings sample for Dual WAN that you can guide me towards? That way I can get my hands wet on Router OS and maybe my next one will be a higher variation from the product line.

Fri Apr 07, 2017 4:31 pm

I think it's in the manual. Have you seen it? Also the Google gives the hit on the top.

The bridge is trivial, the fail over is not difficult, but multi WAN is a thorny issue regardless of what router you select. You cannot simply configure the router to route traffic to either WAN indiscriminately, because it breaks stateful protocols such as HTTPS and others. You must sit down and manually make decisions as to what traffic will normally use which WAN, either by traffic type, source, or target; and then configure mangle rules and discretionary routing tables to ensure that all of this type of traffic goes to the same WAN all the time (subject to fail over). Everyone has to make these choices for himself depending on his own traffic characteristics, which is why there is no cookbook answer to this problem.

Since this topic is not specific to the hAP lite, you should search the forum for other threads that deal with it, and discuss it there.

Thanks. Also, is there a chart for the various models that compares/ shows WAN to LAN throughout performance so people may choose appropriate device?

Not all in one place, I think, but at routerboard.com every device has a data sheet that shows bit and packet throughput for various configurations. In general, you get what you pay for.

Of course, but wouldn't a product matrix + benchmarks be favorable for prospective and existing customers (and the Product seller/ Maker) so that they can easily choose the product of the right fit and scale. Going through each data sheet is like saying that we wont have a unified view on our product portfolio.

macsrwe · Sun Apr 09, 2017 7:41 pm

Regardless of the arguments for its desirability, none exists as far as I know. There is a unified guide available across models as far as radio signal strength and distance, but none that I know of for routing power. The only cross model indicator I know of in that regard is the unit price tag. Someone else may know of a guide that I have overlooked.

espacioint · Sun Sep 17, 2017 10:48 am

I have more than 200 of this boxes installed.
It works quite good (2 dbi of gain on the antenna would be much better...).
But I have to say that the power connector is not a good choice.
I have more than 10 with problems because of this...
You have to look for a better option.

Thanks.

andymok · Tue May 15, 2018 6:39 pm

Just got one, I haven't tested it out yet but I like the form factor a lot.

It's great for temp. use / live event / field testing or troubleshooting. No need to worry whether there's spare outlet, great for IoT. If there's a USB port it will work.

I did think about mAP but this has just enough RJ45 ports for simple port mirroring, or act as a switch to control several things together, ie LED display panel.

I really hope it has Gigabit Eth ports, as some of my gear must use them, otherwise it won't even connect and get an IP address. Is it the price point or the 5V USB supply keeping GbE ports away from it? I would really like to hear.

I work in a SI company offering professional audio/video-engineering solutions, so I think this is a great product for field deployment, as well as a great tool to learn the underlying protocols, how my things actually works

Lowest cost MikroTik cased unit with gigabit and multiple ports is hAP ac2. There are none powered by USB +5V. Go to https://mikrotik.com/products/group/wir ... and-office#! and use the filters in the left column to choose gigabit.

Yes I'm aware of that, I use a hAP ac (1) at home actually. Just want to know why USB power and GbE don't mix together, is it because of the price, or technical challenges like 5V simply not sufficient for GbE? Since it seems all USB-powered only have FE available (mAP, mAP lite and hAP lite)

Power consumption of GbE chipsets.
Ever wondered why there is no passively cooled 10G switches?

LeftyTs · Sun Jul 01, 2018 4:56 pm

It is only a matter of time. As things get smaller power consumption will eventually decrease and passive cooling will be possible.

Thanks for that Link & Filter. Atleast something positive in terms of "Product Filtering"

NetWorker · Thu Aug 22, 2019 4:26 pm

@xbliss, performance varies A LOT with different rules and setups. There used to be no numbers at all since it can vary so much. For example the charts are published for zero or 25 ip filter rules. However the load on the cpu is not linear and you can't really extrapolate and say "ok, so 13 rules will give me double the bandwidth". It doesn't work that way. Mainly because not all traffic goes through all the rules anyway.

My advice to you is if you are planning on buying a bunch of these for a specific mission, get one or two, set them up and test your setup in all possible scenarios so you know for a fact that it'll work. And if you're planning on buying one of these for yourself and home use, it'll probably be sufficient but don't cheap out and either get a hAPac or select a router for your needs and buy a separate access point. Which is the best solution anyway because you can place it in a different location of where all the wires are at and maximize wifi coverage.

Something like RB450Gx4 with a few RBcAPGi-5acD2nD or whatever APs?

mkx · Fri Aug 23, 2019 8:06 am

Something like RB450Gx4 ...?

Or, if amount of RAM and storage offered by RB450Gx4 is not needed, a RBD52G (with wireless disabled) might be considered as well ... comes with a case and lower price-tag while offering same wired performance.

Keybet · Fri Dec 06, 2019 6:07 pm

Any word on NAND storage? Is it going to be like a normal RouterBoard with somewhere between 32-64MiB minimum, or is it going to be more like an mAP in that respect, with the same kind of software update procedure as an mAP?

-- Nathan
yes, it is a SMIPS
Code: Select all
total-hdd-space: 16.0MiB

So how would I troubleshoot a RB951-2nD that keeps booting on its own-I cannot log in to them even after a hard reset. Also others have 'internet port'-port 1, blinking even with no ethernet cable plugged in. Another which seem not to be getting enough juice i am assuming the power supply on the PCB has an issue?

r00t · Fri Dec 06, 2019 9:27 pm

Dim or flickering LEDs and rebooting are usually signs of bad capacitors on board, check all the electrolytic caps and possibly replace them.
I have fixed many routerboards that appeared bricked by just replacing all capacitors...

Asking some of the HapLite folks on the HapLite thread..

we don't have any beamforming products yet.
And after 6 years still the same ...

Based on this and this Why people pair UBNT APs with MikroTik routers? Then..

..The following thought process for of mine are valid courses of action/ thought towards keeping Mktk for Routing but look elsewhere for Wireless.
Cheap APs & Routers to pair w low end Mikrotik hAPlite (N) Home/ SOHO setup for Wireless AC? (Non ubiquiti etc)
