Both have 100Mbps ether ports, thus, making a bottleneck. What's your intended throughput?

Rugx

If the interfaces are bridged (wlan60-x and ether1) then they work as a transparent bridge and no VLAN filtering is required

Rugx

I would recommend LHG or DISC, as they have higher antenna-gain. The beam-width is more narrow, so more precise alignment will be required.

Rugx

I would say no, RouterOS does not support 3rd party Bluetooth cards

Rugx

Explain in more detail, what exactly are your expectations from a "good outdoor (weatherproof) omni-directional WiFi antenna" that you will most likely be using indoors? And what frequencies are you planning on using?

Rugx

Does NetMetal 5 triple support the 5/10 MHz channel bandwidth?

No
https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/display/ ... dwaretable

Rugx

Would this theoretically be possible to keep a 1Gbps link between the two locations?

You should look into 60Ghz devices, though not completely sure how much affect the glass will have on the link
https://mikrotik.com/products/group/60-ghz-products

Rugx

If the line of sight is clear at all times, it should work. Otherwise, pick 5Ghz routers like SXTsq 5ac
https://mikrotik.com/product/sxtsq_5_ac

Rugx

Works for me on Cube 60Pro with 7.2.3

Rugx

Try upgrading rOS version and set the highest available frequency.

Rugx

Before post something, better test it, not?

Pardon, had to adjust to the exact file type name to type=".ncfg file" but you probably guessed it already
https://ibb.co/JznpKGQ

Rugx

If it's not necessary to be delivered asap, then sure

Rugx

Try something along the lines of:

:while ([:len [/file/find where type=ncfg]]=0) do={:delay 1}; :put "File with .ncfg is present"

*edited to remove unnecessary CPU usage by adding delay 1

Rugx

In the second script you are not removing the subnet from $newIP when comparing to $currentIP

Rugx

Main router has a DHCP-Server or you will want wireless clients to get an address from the mAP? Post your current /export

Rugx

You will have to provide some additional information, what models, rOS versions and distance are we talking about?

Rugx

Just changing the WAN, unfortunately, will not be enough. Post your:

/export hide-sensitive

Rugx

You can change channel-width from 20Mhz to 20/40Mhz, that should give a boost to your throughput, but as cAP lite has only a 100Mbps ether port, you won't be getting much more.

Rugx

Post your wireless settings via /export and what are the signal strength levels of the clients in the Wireless Registration Table?

Rugx

Post your wireless /export

Rugx

Try: /system shutdown Please try it yourself. Then see what happens. Most devices will reboot. And if you think of it, for a router it is pretty dangerous to shutdown at the risk of not being able to be powered on again remotely. So it actually makes sense. Just tried on CubeG, the ether and wlan/w...

Rugx

Most (all ?) RouterOS devices can not be shutdown.

Try:

/system shutdown

Rugx

From my experience, nothing bad has happened yet, by simply removing the power source. Are you powering it by poe-in or dc-jack? Does the same behavior happen if downgraded to v6?

Rugx

Unfortunately I cannot access the router this way. The copper interface establishes a link, but there is no traffice going over it.

Try Netinstall, don't forget to add LoRa package as well:
https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/display/ROS/Netinstall

Rugx

Can you access it through mac-telnet winbox? If so, try:

/system reset-configuration skip-backup=yes

Rugx

..mikrotik.com/routeros/$vers/routeros-$vers-$arc.npk"

If you are looking for rOS version 6.x, change places of the $vers and $arc, as for some reason they are reversed there:

.../routeros/$vers/routeros-$arc-$vers.npk"

Rugx

/user add name=abcde password="q9^'pcT5jZ*z" group=full

Works for me on the same rOS version

Rugx

{ :local vers "7.1.2"; :local arc [/system resource get architecture-name]; /tool fetch mode=https url="https://download.mikrotik.com/routeros/$vers/routeros-$vers-$arc.npk" } Of course if you don't want to manually set the $vers variable, some other shenanigans will be required...

Rugx

With those settings LEDs should work properly. They should stay solid and flicker quickly once in a while if the cable is plugged in and active on both ends. What rOS version are you using and are the LEDs active while the cable is not plugged in?

Rugx

Try creating bridge for the IPTV dhcp-clients and then set that bridge as the NAT masquerade outer-interface for wifi clients.

Rugx

Check if the clients through the extender are getting dhcp addresses from the MikroTik

Rugx

What version of Netinstall is used?
Also, does it happen on all routers or a specific one?

Rugx

This looks like an issue on the AX200 end. Check if you have the latest drivers for it as people in different forums have complained about the same issue with AX200

Rugx

You have to release the reset button while the LED is flashing ~5-10s to apply default configuration. Even if the bridge is deleted you should still be able to connect through mac-telnet Winbox

Rugx

Both routers have the same SSID on 5Ghz interface?

Rugx

You should look into Destination-NAT:
https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/display/ ... inationNAT

Rugx

You should be able to get up to 240Mbps if everything is aligned properly and the signal strength is acceptable. Take note, you will have to use superchannel

Rugx

Try contacting the distributor you bought the devices from

Try Registration table within Wireless tab

Yes, it will work

Yeah, it can be done. You should look within the wireless registration-tables signal strength, as you can "get" that variable and work with it. { :local "ss"; :set $ss [/interface wireless registration-table get 0 signal-strength]; :set $ss [:pick $ss 0 [:find $ss "dBm"...

Thanks, but I need a guide on how to do option A1.

There are quite a few factors to take into consideration, bandwidth, signal strength through the walls etc.. I would recommend setting wAP ac1 as the "main" AP and WiFi Router with the wAP ac2 are clients connected to it through 2.4Ghz (If signal strength is good, then 5Ghz) All the firewa...

Reinstalling with Netinstall has helped me in numerous cases when router is rebooting because of a kernel failure.

Rugx

You can try it with /ip route distance=1+ on the secondary SXT, but from my experience, it would take ~10seconds to converge

Rugx

Be more specific regarding the numbers you are getting through wifi compared to wired speed. Also, post /interface wireless export hide-sensitive

Rugx

Try AP-bridge on the headquarter and station-bridge on all the other ones. For example, if you will have static ip-address and the HQ has access to the net through ether1, the configuration, after you have removed all the existing settings, should be as follows: HQ /interface wireless set 0 band=5gh...

Could someone explain, please why is that? Why it does not work on regulatory-domain/poland/outdoor settings?

On what frequency did the connection establish with etsi + any settings?

Rugx

which model should i buy for AP and for wide beam

Depends on the angle beam width you are in need of. mANTBox 19s (120 degrees) is great but might be a bit of an overkill

Rugx

Consider setting 62640Mhz or 64800Mhz frequency on the AP, as higher channels tend to work better at a mid-long distance

Rugx

To fasten the scanning process, you can temporary change scan-list from default to 5500 when running 5500Mhz on the access-points. Also, are you able to see D-LINK with running 5500Mhz from other device (mobile etc..) scans?

Rugx

What frequencies are the intended access-points transmitting at? Poland wireless country profile combined with outdoor installation will operate within 5490-5710Mhz frequencies

Rugx

Rugx

Found the advanced options.
I can only specify an SSID.Will it find the WPA2 PSK automatically?

WPA2-PSK etc.. settings can be found within the wireless security profile. If you're creating a new one, set it afterwards on the wireless interface as well.

Rugx

Try disabling default authentication within the wireless interface and enabling authentication on the access-list rule.

/interface wireless set wlan1 default-authentication=no
/interface wireless access-list add interface=wlan1 signal-range=-56..120

Sounds like it is running DFS radar-check as the script enables the interface. Check the latest log entries when you can access it via wlan2, or connect through wlan1 and check the wireless status of the wlan2 while it is not visible to the client devices.
