I was able to get netinstall to finally work right by setting a manual IP address for the device in the config rather than checking "default config".

I have a few CAP AC devices that I have set up for a friend of mine. They didn’t have internet for a few months, so they unplugged all of the devices (a 3011 and 3x CAP AC devices set up as CAPSMAN-controlled CAPs). Upon turning them back on, the CAP AC devices did not connect to the CAPSMAN server,...

I've got a CAPSMAN wireless setup at home that has been running well for a couple years now consisting of a RB4011, wAP, and now also a cAP AC. It has been solid, but I have occasionally started getting complaints from my wife from time to time that the wireless is working slow (we have a local serv...

Explain to me, why when I do the board to board speed test, I will get 150Mb over the wireless, BUT when I do the speedtest from a PC on the network to the ISP, who has 600mbit download, I only get 40 - 50 mbit? Often in the real world with crowded 2.4GHz spectrum, you won't realistically get more ...

After buying and being very unsatisfied with the 4011/wAP/RB260GSP, I'm planning my preliminary move/test of Ubiquiti. Wireless tools and configuration is *meh* and the 4011 reboots itself at random times. Edit: A half year (approximately) later, the 4011 has stopped its antics and has become much m...

I don't have an external tester unfortunately, I was just going based on the mikrotik cable tester and performance.

I have recently changed my network config and noticed a random link down with no error with a link up 4 seconds later that mostly occurs overnight. For example, last night link downs occurred more often than normal but at 02:26:01, 03:22:06. 04:07:10, 05:34:12, 06:52:49, 07:05:34, and then uncharast...

I upgraded to a RB4011iGS+5HacQ2HnD and it's running max speed every time at around 4% CPU out of the box.

Arris TM1602a docsis 3.0 cable/telephony modem

If I may ask, what device is this ISP modem, make, model, etc?

bdubs85

If i hook directly to the modem it runs flat out and they tell me it's my router. This modem isn't a "router", so can't put it into bridge or pass thru mode (i thought double nat issue maybe). I spent 3 hours one evening getting escalated and bounced around. Maybe you should approach your ...

bdubs85

Well, I reset my 2011 to no config, copied and pasted your config and I still have exactly the same performance as before. This is irritating. http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest/46166316.png Then a few minutes later, I reset to my config with mangle rules and everything, with fasttrack enabled like...

I have managed to get ~ 850Mb/s with RB2011, using NAT (No PPPoE). About a year ago, the RB2011 retired to my lab area and has been replaced with a HAP AC2 and I no longer have a 1Gb/s Internet link. Why do you not start by providing your full config, and we can make suggestions? Why don't you un-r...

I wish MikroTik would help here. There is a serious issue with the later software or firmware or both. It's frustrating to see their synthetic test results, while we can only realize a very small fraction in real world scenario. With gigabit connections becoming more affordable, I'm now seeing Mikr...

bdubs85

I really wish there was a solution to this. The 2011 is fairly powerful and I hate to upgrade it because of a software issue. I would be ok if it impacted lan traffic too or had some logical reason, but fasttrack thru wan shouldn't slow down that bad, especially without cpu maxing out...

I'll be leaving cable for a fiber connection soon (either 250/25 or 500/50) so I will be able to test and see what happens on a different ISP/modem with the same router/config/computers.
Speed is still bad, much worse at times: only 75-200 down.

bdubs85

Heck, why not...
It's a new year, nothing changed...
Speedtest.net gives 150 down/22 up
Dslreports gives 450 down/23 up

Gotta love the consistency.

bdubs85

When a new connection was being put it a couple days ago, we started doing testing and saw poor performance on a RB2011 -- around 100 mbps when the cable modem was testing directly at 900+ mbps. Decided to really streamline the rules and make sure that we were using FastTrack. A bit better, but not...

bdubs85

If you have ipv6 disabled in the router, it won't connect to ipv6 websites or connections, right?

bdubs85

So did you enable fast track yet?

bdubs85

So, Merry Christmas...without changing my config at all, my speeds are now back to normal. Maybe the most recent Mikrotik patch fixed whatever was wrong? Either way, thank you mikrotik! Looking a little closer at the options on a certain speedtest site shows 2 options now: multiple or single stream ...

bdubs85

Hmm i get the same rely slow speed about max 200 mbit and poor 140 upload :( so back to DLINK router :( I rely hope mikrotik can come up with an update wend 2011 still to bye ? If I wars sure the speed wars ok I will go and bye an 4011 bye if it is the same as 2011 then it is to many mony to spend ...

RB2011 as a basic router can handle 890 Mbps of IPv4 TCP fasttracked traffic. Other configuration aspects can make it slower. Post config to be sure.

Any idea why vanilla config would have that issue? I always got fantastic lan performance, it just happens when hitting wan.

bdubs85

Yes, i believe I mentioned previously that 6.36.4 was the last version that gave me good speed.

bdubs85

I just updated to the newest os and firmware and counted it as a loss being stuck at about 200mb down until I get a 3011 or something faster and can experiment with that faster hardware.

bdubs85

Aside from running an old firmware and router os version, I gave up. Maybe one day...

bdubs85

It's strange, I know that I have a good number of mangle rules in place to manage my queue tree structure. I have noticed since this problem started (or maybe I'm just not remembering right...) that CPU usage doesn't really go above 70% when running with fasttrack off. Using the multiple TCP connec...

It's a laptop, Realtek PCIe GBE, used windows update for driver management. It works at near wirespeed (950mbps plus overhead) on local LAN when moving files to my server, do you think the driver could influence the WAN throughput but not the LAN? I ask because recently I had a problem with FastTra...

bdubs85

I'd also check interface stats for your "WAN" port on RB2011(Rx, Tx and Link Auto Negotiation status) for errors, collisions.... My RB951 didn't like my ISP's fibre converter and was acting all stupid (with terrible speeds) until both were manually set to gigabit, full duplex. So I re-upd...

Weird enough, I put an old netgear WNDR3700 between the modem and router and it ran flat out speed (423mbps down) for 1 speed test and then speed dropped back down after that.

I've had an open ticket with them trying to resolve at the same time posting on here

Reset to default configuration and try disabling fasttrack and see how it changes the speed vs. fasttrack enabled. I actually downgraded firmware and routerOS to 6.36.4 and factory firmware which is 3.33. Full speed 450mbps internet not even going over 40% CPU. :( 2018.09.20 reverted OS speedtest.j...

Sorry, without actually being at the network, can't offer more

Thank you for trying! This is really frustrating.

Reset to default configuration and try disabling fasttrack and see how it changes the speed vs. fasttrack enabled. On WISP AP default config, i disabled all other ports on the router except WAN and laptop. Without fasttrack enabled, speed only was 97mbps down, with 60% CPU usage. With fasttrack ena...

Router os it was just incremental, firmware it was like 2 years of no firmware update (i forgot

, I was doing os updates though!)...I can't remember the exact firmware previously. Is there a way to find that? Pretty sure it was 6.35.4 and going to the one right before 6.43 and then to 6.43?

bdubs85

Thanks CZfan, I fixed the code view. CPU never exceeds 45% or so when running at that 450mbps speed and my connection is going through fasttrack. Both of those screenshots were different bandwidth tests with that same configuration that I've been running for 2 years. One of the connection tests runs...

bdubs85

Yes router os and firmware are both updated. I posted some screenshots earlier today with dslreports speed test showing normal speed (multiple connections?) but any other speed test (single tcp connection?) shows slower speed. My modem is not a router, so no bridge mode possible there. I'll try and ...

What firmware are you running? Could you share your configuration? I used to get great wan speed but still get great lan routing speed. I tried resetting to stock wisp ap defaults as well as home ap default config and can't get any better on that speedtest.net test, so I thought I eliminated bad con...

I got a response from mikrotik talking about how queues impact TCP single connection performance and i should just be able to get normal real-world speed outside of the synthetic speedtest.net test. I tried to download a large file, such as a ISO file via HTTP or torrent and still was stuck at about...

So I did some messing around: Hops to bandwidth server is 8, total RTT is 12ms to bandwidth server. So I started changing things: I disconnected all other wires/wifi.

In the bridge ports, the wan port was not in the bridge (i assume this is correct, since i can't add it to the bridge).

bdubs85

I've read that multiple times, but it's not clicking for me...isn't hardware offloading supposed to improve performance? So should i reformat and create the setup without master/slave setup from the beginning? I'll try and re-read it a bunch to see if I can figure it out.

bdubs85

Anything at all?

Hi everyone, I've had my RB2011UiAS-2HnD-IN for a few years now and have had no complaints until now. I moved to my new house and upgraded my internet speed from 150/10 to 400/20.
