As for stability, in 7.6 I had two situations where I found all devices disconnected from the wireless router. I don't know the reason for the disconnection. I am a basic user of these Mikrotik routers. From 5Ghz radio only or from both? A radar detection events trigger a disconnection on 5Ghz DFS ...

@Chiara
With which operator you have the reset of connection?
Wind3 in Italy? They reset every connection after 4 hours, you can't avoid this.

LSan83

With local forwarding activated or disabled? If you want speed you need to use local forwarding in Capsman.

MT has a bunch of hardware with wave2-capable chipsets. wave2 is a separate package at the moment and needs more free space than most devices even have flash memory. But I think the roadmap of MT is, to get the wave2 thingy stable so they do not need a separate package anymore. They would just inte...

Preferable in a semi robust tiny enclosure (like the hAP AC2) No thanks!!! The hAP AC2 is too small for good Thermal Dissipation. I can't get both 2.4 and 5 GHz active and stable on it. I have to turn off the 2.4 Ghz on the AC2. The hAP AC3 case is much better. We are hoping / wondering if a hAP AC...

Hap ac2 don't have 14 MB of free flash required for wifiwave2 package....

LSan83

Between HEX-S and RB4011 there is the IP4018/9 Routerboard (for example HAP AC2/3 and Chateau).

You can pick an Hap AC2 and disable the wifi.

LSan83

None answered so far, for 256MB RAM devices, loading the wave2 package on arm32 (hap ac2) will work if external flash is connected to router? ROS 7 packages are tied 100% to internal NAND only? Short answer NO I already had the answer on this forum for Chateau LTE12... No wave2 package for small in...

If I could caps-man it from my hAP AC2... i would give it a try but from what i understand... WiFi5 MU-MIMO is supported in ROS7 which does NOT work with caps-man???

I have Caps-man on RB4011 (Ros 6.47.10) and i can control without problem the wifi on Chateau with ROS 7.

LSan83

@anav - Essentially all the newer ARM based based MikroTik products are only dual chain 2x2. Exception is the Audience device -- you can re-configure it to use the other 5Ghz card which has 4x5ghz.

RB4011 has 4x4 too.

LSan83

Drink two less coffees a week and you will have saved enough money to buy another hex in 3 weeks, but instead get a hapac2. Bit better bang for the buck.

1€ x espresso.... 2x3=6....
Brand new Hex at 6€??? WHERE???

What's the power requirement of the phone?
You have the corrispondent voltage psu connected to the CRS?
24/28v psu can't supply 48v poe.... You need a 48v power supply for that.

LSan83

Another idle question - what was the drive for v7? I get the impression that they've started again from ground zero if they are adding features back in? Was this to get a cleaner code base? Shift from an heavy customized kernel 3.3.5 to a new heavy customized kernel 5.6.3 (since 7.0beta7. The first...

LSan83

Connecting them with UTP cable is not an option, only solution is to use Wi-Fi connection. In your opinion would two panel antennas of 15-20 dBs establish some "stable" connection between clients? Any other suggestions? Mixed solution? Wireless bridge across road and utp cable from road t...

Have you checked the ethernet cable between RB3011 and the extender?
What status do you have on the ethernet port?

I’ve set up to capture the 1 3 7 20 bands. I wanted to know if there are terminal commands to do an aggregation of 2 or more bands as primary to increase the flow in mbps It's full automatic.

Maybe... I hope the roadblock isn't for Covid problems in the team.

LSan83

Any ideas? Does the RouterBOARD just not have the grunt to sustain these speeds? Normally i wouldn't be all that bothered but i've bought it specifically to get the absolute most out of my fibre connection, which as you can imagine is fairly expensive! Just wrong model. The Hap AC2 (ip4018 arm quad...

LSan83

Does Mikrotik has any roadmap to implement WPA3 in 2021?

They already do it. Wpa3 is on wave2 optional driver for ros 7.1beta3.

LSan83

Everything is better than WAP LTE internal antennas. LHG is a lot better on B20 too.
Or you can install good external antennas on wap lte.

LSan83

Don't count exactly the seconds. Checks the led's blinking scheme instead. On my Wap AC is less than 10 sec.

LSan83

Almost every device out there based on ipq4018/4019 has atleast 256MB of RAM. With a few exceptions, like RT-AC58U which struggles to not throw errors because of the very limited memory available out of the 128MB total. So I wouldn't keep my hopes up to see it running in the future on lower require...

!) added new experimental wireless package "wifiwave2" for ARM devices with more than 256 MB of RAM (CLI only); What about devices with 16MB storage and 128MB of RAM? This new driver is way too big. 10MB. Does this mean that IPQ4018 devices are left behind? And the IPQ4019 devices with 16...

LSan83

Better if you set 802.11g/n on 2.4 Ghz and 802.11n/ac on 5 Ghz at least.
It's normal that you can't ping external ip from inside your lan. If you don't ask at TIM a public ip, you can't reach your network from outside neither.

Hey, is there anyone who owns a Chateau LTE12 and is able to use LTE mode only? Currently I'm able to connect to internet only using 3G mode. I'm in contact via Mikrotik support and I'd like to know if someone else is experiencing the same problem. Here i am! I always use LTE mode only on Chateau L...

LSan83

I agree it would be more honest to explicitly say in the product brief "this product comes with beta software which is only infrequently updated but has many known issues". Customers can still decide if they want to get it. Loyal MikroTik customers probably would, but new customers could ...

However, on my iMac these channels seem not available for use on AirPort.
So what is the actuality with these channels? Yay or nay?

Not only iMac... A lot of client don't support all allowed 5Ghz frequency. If you have some of them on your network then you have to exclude some frequency.

LSan83

There is already the Chateau LTE18 (4.5g cat18) and soon the Chateau 5G (with 4 and 5g modem).
They're using Quectel's modem in LGA form factor.

LSan83

I reached 190 Mbits with Chateau LTE12 with poor signal reception because i haven't free line of sight (woods).
If You can't get over 110 is for your ISP or for poor reception.

LSan83

I haven't set antenna gain manually, tx-power-mode is default. So it reads the country settings from eeprom which is correct. With 6.47.1 antenna gain should be set to default (for WAP AC should be 2 dbi for both 2.4 and 5 Ghz). With antenna gain set to 20/23 dbi the signal is underpowered by 18/21...

Stupid question: You have connected the external antennas with coaxial cable?
Lte internal antenna on Mikrotik are weak.

Write to support. The first firmware for Chateau on the repository is the 7beta08. https://mikrotik.com/download The 7beta06 preinstalled from factory isn't on download page. You have to upgrade the firmware of the lte modem from version 04 to 06 too. I don't have problem with Chateau on 7beta08 (pl...

Hi!
Today i just got a Chateau LTE12 and I upgraded it with ros 7beta08.
When i try to update the modem firmware i found there is a new version (EG12EAPAR01A06M4G) but after the download i get an error that it can't upgrade the firmware.
What i have to check?

Hi!
I just bought Chateau lte12 too, and it worked on my Wind3 sim with firmware 7beta08 and modem firmware EG12EAPAR01A05M4G.

I'm using WAP AC on the walls and they work very well. I don't have CAP AC to compare (i founded used WAP AC at a good price... Easy choice

Its just in the center of the apartment Most of the wifi devices are in the radius within 10 to 20 meters from the router. I had a feeling that hEX s is the mosr powerfull of the 3 compared to hAP ac and hAP ac^2 isn't it? No, it is in the middle. HEX S has about half the "power" of HAP A...

LSan83

You have connected the wAP to the Hap AC2 with a ethernet cable right?
The guide you linked is for a network of AP connected with cable.
If the radio on Hap AC2 is configured as CAP connected at the same CAPsMAN server of the WAP, both use the same configuration.

LSan83

Webfig is ok for normal configuration (but when you mess it, only Windows tools like Winbox and Netinstall can recover the hap). The important thing is to never use quickset after initial setup. If you change anithing in Quickset after you get in trouble. Use only Webfig and Terminal for tuning and ...

LSan83

Kinda kills it as a replacement for unifi. If the path to the device manager goes down for some reason, you really don't want all the APs to go down. That doesn't mean the internet is down. Just rebooting the manager for an update shouldn't kill all the APs connected. You can have multiple CAPsMAN ...

LSan83

I have spend a lot of time on the UBNT forum, mostly helping others. I think that forums in common are the best resource for solving problems. Especially because you get support from a community. And not only the community, there are some MikroTik employees giving good information as well. I believ...

LSan83

Yes, you can use switch of other brands. If you need VLAN then you need a "smart switch" that can manage them.
In my network only the switches aren't Mikrotik (i already had them from the previous network) and Capsman works well.

LSan83

Do any MikroTik wireless access points offer near gigabit speeds? No. And remember, that normally Mikrotik provide max 50% of spec -s speed. ? I reach the full standard speed with wAP AC under CAPsMAN and 1x1 802.11ac clients (433 - overhead = 300 Mbits half-duplex in tcp connections). Of course fu...

Hi Guido!
I use R11e-LTE on Wind3 in Italy. It's not an eSIM modem.
It need a external reader for a normal SIM (usually a full-size SIM in the Mikrotik device that are ready for it, like the WAP R, WAP AC R, LtAP R, LHG R, ecc ecc).

LSan83

In the last try a full reset of the device. I had a few problem with some used wap ac (with same configuration of other wap ac i have) and the reset has resolved all of them.

Hi, here in Italy both WAP LTE and LHG LTE with standard Mikrotik modem work very well.

LSan83

I have no personal experience with using those APs but they should be OK for that kind of performance. The RB952 is a combined router, switch and AP with good overall performance. As you don't need a router there you could also consider a separate small switch and another cAP AC. Or use a HAP AC2.....

I used one WAP LTE with a third party panel antenna (9 dbi for LTE800, around 14 dbi for 1800-2600) for last year. The 2dbi integrated antenna is too weak.
Now i changed it with a LHG LTE and i see an huge improvement (i live in countryside and the bts are far and behind woods).

LSan83

Have you considered Powerline?
