Are there plans to produce RB412 or RB413 models?
There is substantial gap both in functions and price between RB411 and RB433.
Yes it is a lot faster, and you can eliminate fragmentation by increasing the MTU of your backhaul links to allow encapsulation of full size (1500 byte) ethernet frames inside VPLS packets.VPLS isn't much faster, because fragmentation and reassembly still happens.
VPLS is a far superior solution than VLAN's, especially over a WISP network.I could use VLANs, though. But these are a big pain to set up, because I'd need to replace several devices in my infrastructure to support VLANs.
I don't get it, you want to replace a 133 by a 411 but that is not possible because is has only one card?Also I'd love to see a RB133 shaped RB4x3.
We've installed a big base of RB133's now are struggeling with bandwidth issues, cause with EoIP we never will reach more than 10Mbps at the client's side (The CPU of the RB133's is maxed out by EoIP).
Replacing these boards with RB411 or RB433 is not possible, because RB411 only has one MiniPCI-slot, whereas RB433 is way too big to fit in our outdoor enclosures.
Ok, I have about 60 rb133's (133C3, maybe others existed at the time, can't recall though). The 133's definitely have only one slot on board.I operate in 5GHz only, so RB411R is no option.
The onboard card of the 411R is 2GHz according to the description on routerboard.com
Also there are lots of RB133 with more than one card installed.
These had been installed before we were aware of the interference issues while using multiple cards.
Unfortunately the only options are:
- live with it like it is.
- or find a faster Routerboard that can fit into the enclosures.
replacing the enclosures is way to expensive.
? So when is this 2nd radio active? If customers 1rst radio fails? In such case customer gets connectivity via neighbour CPE?The customer also is a relay to other customers within a redundant network in order to provide himself and the other custumers with redundancy.
now you can replace those 433's what's have 3 cards inside - and have less interference using 5 of 3 slotsbtw.: I am curious why Mikrotik announced a RB435.
This will make interference issues even worse.
You have the RB133c. Perhaps you have never seen the RB133?Ok, I have about 60 rb133's (133C3, maybe others existed at the time, can't recall though). The 133's definitely have only one slot on board.I operate in 5GHz only, so RB411R is no option.

hmm, indeed, never have seen them.. must have missed these.You have the RB133c.

Three Ethernet ports and there is a third mini-PCI slot on the back side.
