Legacy wireless does not provide any of the standards that improve roaming.

One of the biggest flaws of capsman design is: the caps manager does only provision wifi. As far as I am aware of. You put a brand new CAP device in caps-mode and it gets adopted. Done. The device is left alone with the default admin user without password - as most of the devices out there are witho...

I have provisioned the the APs by holding the reset button during boot which seemed to make them connect to the router to get their configs. These configs work and I am able to auth and connect to the Internet no problem. However, in the WiFi window (on the router), I see "-- no connection to ...

On a default cap config only Ethernet ports are part of the bridge.

Tried to netinstall 7.15beta6 with no luck on Chateau LTE12. Did not boot afterwards either. So I netinstalled 7.13.5 and device now running again. Yes, I switched to "testing" branch first time in years. 7.13 was already tough to swallow and then 7.14. Now I go YOLO as testing branch has...

Yet another bricked hAP ac2 at the remote location while upgrading from 7.13.4.

It seems like MikroTik is aiming to enter the brick industry. They have been increasingly producing more bricks lately.

Rename "stable" channel to "main". "testing" to "nightly". problem solved.

Excellence. Didn't survive a reboot. now netinstall ahead. this space issues. second netinstall in a week because of this.

free-hdd-space: 0
total-hdd-space: 15.2MiB

0 free space on beta6. Well played!

MT I beg you, I want to continue using my Chateau LTE12.

infabo

There's a new stable in the beta channel.

Yes, I switched to "testing" branch first time in years. 7.13 was already tough to swallow and then 7.14. Now I go YOLO as testing branch has the fixes first. LOL

The signs are already there (for both winbox and wifi7):

*) wifi - improve channel selection after radar detection events;

Does this fix the issue where the interface remained in "selecting channel" state after a radar event? e.g. viewtopic.php?p=1057657

infabo

*) wifi - rename "available-channels" parameter to "channel-priorities" and include desirability rating for each channel; Mikrotik, please elaborate on this. I can't find available-channels nor channel-priorities anywhere Thank you. answering my own question: it is about the out...

infabo

Yeah, they keep an eye. About 600kb free on 7.13.5, ~260kb avail on 7.14 and ~60kb on 7.15beta4. See the direction it is going?

infabo

I see

script,error executing script from console failed, please check it manually

in log too. I can't remember seeing such an error on 7.14.

But maybe because of:

*) console - added log for script execution failures;

infabo

they are definetely comes from ipv6 nd, but you haven't set any dns servers here, looks abnormal. Just found an example in the old wiki. IPv6 DNS servers configured under "/ip/dns/server" are advertised when "advertise-dns=yes" is set. https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:IPv6/...

infabo

*) wifi - rename "available-channels" parameter to "channel-priorities" and include desirability rating for each channel;

Mikrotik, please elaborate on this. I can't find available-channels nor channel-priorities anywhere Thank you.

infabo

I'm sure that MikroTik already has devices with WiFi 7 support in development. It's almost as certain as native Winbox for Linux being nearly ready.

infabo

Same situation here. I have some legacy ROS wireless clients in "station-pseudobridge" and these cause massive issues only since 7.14. I guess RSTP or something. But nothing in the logs. And I did not find out how to log/debug it.

infabo

I guess one benefit of getting a Wifi 7 router now if you are in the market for a new router would be: future proofing This could a real argument for anyone buying devices in bulk and commercial use. Later.. £25 for an AC1200 with four antennas... how are they making them so cheap! Because they are...

infabo

Topic's question is: wifi7 Mikrotik when?
Noone asked for benefits

For example: personally I do not benefit from 802.11ax either. But I don't question the existence of wifi6 product line.

infabo

Benefits? It features wifi7

infabo

Do you fear the loopback? Don't install/use a Linux OS - you always have a loopback interface available. I did not know that I need to have angst.

infabo

wfburton, I've read the changelog for you:

*) system - fixed "cpu-frequency" for CRS3xx ARM devices;

infabo

Also: Chateau 5G R16 which retails at > 400EUR has only 16MB. 🤣 I don't want to discuss the retail price. But the fact: There are devices released in 2024 with 16MB flash. I don't care if 16MB, 128MB or 1GB flash. As long as it fits and devices run stable. So this is fully on topic: keep an eye on t...

infabo

I have no insights but I have the feel that it is quite an effort for MT to keep track of ROS changes in Winbox. There are always a ton of Winbox related changelog entries on each ROS release. And still Winbox is lacking behind CLI in some areas.

infabo

I was kind of surprised too that 7.14 reduced the free space further. Ongoing "bundle growing process" in 7.15 as it seems. I assumed that the raised concerns in 7.13 thread about disk-space on hap AC2 would cause some optimization or "re-thinking" of MT's ROS product owner(s). I...

infabo

Like I said.

infabo

Poll won't happen. Only unhappy people visit the forum. The majority is happy. No need to trim down package size. The happy people are going to install/upgrade ROS on a HAP AC2 successfully and only the pessimist ones are going to face "0 free bytes" problems. It's a state of mind - not a ...

infabo

At the very least make one HaP AC2b, with more storage!

It exists: hap ax2

infabo

There is a lot of potential for savings. It is up to MT.

infabo

Same for cAP AC. This should be a dumb AP.

infabo

I can't imagine going back to wireless package. wifi-qcom-ac is so much ahead. Like lightyears.

infabo

*) wifi - improve channel selection after radar detection events;
*) wifi - rename "available-channels" parameter to "channel-priorities" and include desirability rating for each channel;

Thank you! 👍

The winbox GUI presents you with a panel with all possible settings, reads the existing values in it and then you can change them and submit the whole thing. There is no way to submit individual fields.

Well, you've reverse engineered Winbox? cool

infabo

@infabo,
What exactly issues?

see viewtopic.php?p=1060364#p1059669

PS: issue re-appeared. Not gone.

infabo

Nobody has issues with 2.4ghz wlan with/without capsman?

infabo

Nope. That is what I am pointing out for years already. Winbox touches everything - now you even have the proof logged 🤣. Even can add arguments that were not there before (in the export). Dumbly saving of all form values - even if they are default values. Thats why I do not use winbox, because I do...
