Re: Mikrotik wifi disconnects on my MPB when continuity camera from iPhone

Unfortunately I can't make sense of anything that goes to either of those places. A lot of activity in process:airportd, literally dozens or even hundreds of entries per second, and fine combed it for a while trying to catch the moment the disconnects happen, but I don't think I managed to see anyth...

Mikrotik wifi disconnects on my MPB when continuity camera from iPhone

Oooh boy, I know... Apologies in advance for the apparent heresy of the subject line, but I'm just baffled and any pointers would be great. My home network is rigged up with mikrotik, I have an RB4011 as my main router and CAPsMAN manager, and then a few cAP acs in various rooms for coverage, obviou...

CAPsMAN: only one pre-configured channel per configuration?

Hi, I've predefined a bunch of channels on 2.4 and 5GHz - nothing arcane, just the regular stuff for the country I'm in. But I seem to only be able to add one of those channels per configuration - is that right or am I missing something? What's the recommended way to list a bunch of pre-configured c...

Re: Winbox can't connect to wAP MAC address

*facepalm*

That's it. Thanks very much td32. I can only try this at the office in a couple of days, but I can already see that this must be the issue. Thanks very much again!

Re: Winbox can't connect to wAP MAC address

Hi there, anyone would kindly help? I see loads of video tutorials with Winbox connected to a MAC address, but why is it that with me it says "ERROR: could not connect to ....."?

Please, just point me in the right direction, I'll figure out the rest.

Thanks...

Re: Integrated WLAN with Capsman

Would've preferred you actually helped when I needed, rather than arriving late to the party and pooping all over it. Turns out you're wrong, and I'm only correcting you for the sake of future reference and people actually not becoming misinformed because of your reply on here. You do need to open u...

Re: max key exchange retries (capsman)

MikroTik's forum is where wifi related questions come to die. Rest in peace little question from a once enthusiastic MikroTik customer, in the assurance that no one will ever bother to follow up, reply or altogether try to make this forum a useful and solid knowledge base.

Does User Manager's RADIUS server only allow MAC address authentication for wireless?

Hi all, I'm trying to setup username/password for wireless RADIUS authentication with User Manager, but at this point I'm actually having doubts that the only thing it supports is MAC address authentication. All literature and videos I've been able to gather don't really specify anything and I seem ...

Winbox can't connect to wAP MAC address

Hi, I can't seem to have Winbox connect to my wAP's eth1 MAC address. This wAP is connected directly via ethernet to my hAP. I can access my hAP on its IP address on 192.168.88.1 (haven't tried MAC) but given that I have the wAP managed by CAPsMAN I don't know its IP, and I can't access it via the M...

Re: CAPsMAN manager can't manage its own wireless [SOLVED]

For future reference, for anyone having the same problem, if you want to CAP the wireless of the CAPsMAN device itself and for some reason you can't, this is what you need to do (after you set up CAP Manager and CAP on your wireless): 1. In Wireless > CAP > CAPsMAN Addresses: make sure you have 127....

Re: CAPsMAN manager can't manage its own wireless [SOLVED]

I've just happened to stumble upon the problem and managed to fix it a few hours ago. I'm sure this would've been dead easy for any hardcore routerOS person on here... Go to IP > Firewall and disable the default rule commented as "drop all not coming from LAN". That should immediately add ...

Re: Integrated WLAN with Capsman

Mate I have the exact same problem, I posted at viewtopic.php?f=7&t=127517. Getting a bit desperate now to be honest. Did you figure out how to enable the local wlan of the cap manager?

I did try already all possible combinations for "Discovery Interface" although I had it set at "Bridge" before. Still no good... Btw, I don't have any option for "LAN" on the "Discovery Interfaces". Any other things I should check? I currently have the CAP opt...

Hi all, I greatly simplified this post on viewtopic.php?f=7&t=127517. I think I overcomplicated the background and context here, so please refer to that post instead.
