Re: RB4011

Thanks for all the suggestions. I decided to test additional SFP modules. 10Gtek 10G copper SFP+ module for Cisco did not register in RouterOS 10Gtek 1G copper SFP module for UBNT works fine I have a UBNT 10/100/1000 SFP module that was not tested because I ran out of time. The RB4011 crashed when c...

Re: RB4011

No surprises here. The RB4011 is fast. It can easily handle Gigabit Internet. Unfortunately, the 10GTek SFP+ copper module had link negotiation issues with the DOCSIS 3.1 cable modem. I had to drop back to ether1 as the WAN connection. This means I will not be able to use all the paths to the CPU fo...

Re: RB4011

I completed the config last night, but haven't installed the RB4011. I currently have it configured to use the SFP+ port for WAN using a copper module. I briefly test link negotiation with the 10GTek 10G copper module and it worked with a MacBook Pro. We'll see how it works with the DOCSIS 3.1 cable...

Re: RB4011

I received the wired version of the RB4011 today. My first impression is the amazing build quality. It's much more substantial than my RB450Gx4 kit that it will be replacing.

Re: RB4011

Ordered one too. I went with an international reseller with US plug available. The lack of VAT and lower price made up the difference in shipping estimate on my pre-order from a US reseller. Still no ETA for US resellers. First thing when it arrives I'm going to test the SFP+ port with a 10GTek 10g ...

Re: RB4011

Agreed. I would definitely like to use the SFP port for uplink. I have a bunch of 10Gtek 1G copper modules laying around that I could test. That would prevent the negotiation problem to 1G as they are fixed modules. I'll give the 10Gtek 10G copper module a try too. I'm in a similar situation where I...

Re: RB4011

Is there a recommended SFP+ 10G Copper module that is proven to negotiate to 1G reliably?

Re: RB4011

Thank you for the explanation. I know I'm getting ahead of myself on the config before the device is even shipping. But based on the 2.5Gb/s limitation for each switch chip, it would be best to place devices with a majority of internet traffic on the same switch chip as the port being used for WAN? ...

Re: RB4011

I'm still fairly new to MT. I'm enjoying the RB450Gx4 and have the RB4011iGS+RM on pre-order with a US authorized distributor. Question(s) on how RouterOS handles the two switch chips and impact to performance: 1. How does QuickSet typically handle two switch chips? Does it define two separate subne...

Re: RB450Gx4 WAN throughput decreases

@Nathan - Not sure how ether2 was the interface for the IP > Address as this setting was created by QuickSet. I'll scrub my config later today to see if there are any other reference to a specific port vs bridge. @proximus - It appears the WebFig issues is resolved in the release candidate. I prefer...

Re: RB450Gx4 WAN throughput decreases

The throughput issue seems to be resolved. I updated the firmware on the UAP-XG to the latest stable build and also changed IP > Address > Interface to bridge from ether2. Not sure which one corrected the problem. New Issue: WebFig freezing appears to be related to using the logout in WebFig. Whenev...

Re: RB450Gx4 WAN throughput decreases

Correct. The Bridge is labeled bridge. It was a typo on my part from my Edgemax days where bridges are software and labeled br0. The only changes from QuickSet are related to IPv6 configuration. I changed the interface in IP > Addresses from ether2 to bridge. It appeared to take the setting without ...

Re: FastTrack slow performance

Interesting post. It caught my attention because your slow down is the same rate I'm randomly experience at 20mbps. I have gigabit internet and when things are working well I am able to max out the connection on wired or wireless (RB450Gx4). However, I get random slow downs to 20mbps on a wide range...

Re: Whats the best current home routerboard for a gigabit ISP?

I have Comcast / Xfinity Gigabit tier and I recently switch over from Ubiquiti EdgeRouters to the RB450Gx4. It easily saturates the connection. Based on the test it can handle a few rules as well. It’s essentially a hAP ac2 but with more storage and more RAM instead of wireless. You can find fully b...

RB450Gx4 Performance and POE out

I wanted to get an honest assessment of the performance of the RB450Gx4 compared to the Ubiquiti Edgemax Edgerouter Lite/POE (ERL / ER-5-POE). I only need one 48V POE out. I also think having all the ports on the switch chip is more flexible. I am trying to understand which will perform better for G...

Re: Hap ac2 vs. Hex S

Is the Hap ac2 the same board as the RB450Gx4 just without the wireless module? I’m trying to upgrade from a ubnt edgerouter ER-X-SFP because it can’t full take advantage of gigabit internet. Plus there is a bug that IPv6 PD does not work with hardware acceleration which is necessary to get close to...
