I didn't explain this principle as answer to your original question because this is not a rule one can rely on. Because MAC addresses can be set manually to arbitrary values (I tend to collect some old, possibly broken, ethernet devices ... and re-use their MAC addresses for BSSIDs of virtual wifi ...

Mikrotik HW is capable enough. The problem is there are way too many settings where you can goof up and then performance goes down the drain. That's the difference with cheapo devices which have a "good for most, set and forget but you can not change a lot" config. The strength and weaknes...

Valid question and I am curious too for the solution.

Have you already launched a ticket towards support ?
They should be able to tell how it needs to be done.

Interesting entry here from Guntis (MT Staff) (and subsequent posts about the same topic): https://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?p=1091327#p1091327 Basically, new configs should be pushed automatically.

Both: are you sure after reboot the disk where the container is stored is still on the place where it needs to be ?

Actually, you were referring to the fact ether2 cable should be removed from device

But I get what you wanted to say and your addition is (as usual) spot on.

Default config has the rest of ether ports (and wireless) bridged and set as LAN ... from which management access to device is possible. Hence the suggestion to isntall ether2 cable as well (but that one should be removed after device comissioning if location is accessible to non-authorized people ...

Wasn't something about this visible in log files ?

Reset them to caps mode before handing over the devices.
That's what I do.

Alternatives
- always have ether2 connected as well to cable
- connect to device default wifi and then reset to caps mode
- pre configure device before it is being installed.

L22 uses wave2 radio.

That's the other capsman via wifi menu on your ccr.
Both versions can co-exist on the same controller.

But if there is only 1 wace2 device, why bother ? Set it up directly and reassess when you have multiple AX devices in your network.

Did you reset those cap ax to caps mode ?
Because if not, that would explain why you can not reach them straight away.

For legacy capsman you do need wireless package on that ccr.

Again:
First choose.
Legacy capsman using old drivers or wave2 capsman with wave2 drivers ?

It DOES matter which cap device you use, as indicated above.

If you are unwilling to answer, then I am wasting my time here.

But ... but ...

ok, I'll accept because otherwise it may be considered contempt of court

Any input is appreciated

Please be clear. Your first post says cAP XL. There is only cAP XL AC having "XL" in the name so we have to assume you are referring to that one. Then you say they use wifi-qcom (which is simply wrong for that device, it should use wifi-qcom-ac and then you have all the caveats I mentioned...

Consider using ROSE package.
It's meant to be used for these cases.
https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/display/ROS/ROSE-storage

It might be a known issue.
Are you sure the disk has not been mounted as USB2 (and different label, e.g. disk2) ?
If so, USB reset should solve this issue.

Support is aware of the issue, it happens with some brands of USB disks.
No ETA yet on the solution.

MOD COMMENT: Please only post in English.
It makes it a lot easier for everyone to read your question, it makes it easier for you to get responses, it makes it easier for searching this place.
I added the translation (using Google translate).

AFAIK that's needed when using UDP.
Using TCP it should try for maximum.

EDIT: I stand corrected. Even for TCP you need set the limits.
Odd because it's not like that when using Tools/Bandwidth Test directly from Mikrotik device

I found a bug
System - RouterBOARD - Settings, reverse order of CPU frequencies
Снимок экрана 2024-09-06 222410.png

Actually ... it is sorted alphabetically.
So reverse would be wrong as well.

There are 2 most advised ways to recover from Quickset mishap:
1- reset to default and start over
2- reset to default and don't touch quickset ever again after using it once.

There is a 3th option for more seasoned users ... never use Quickset.

Did you also allow input for that port on your wAP R ?

And what traffic is being sent via lo ??
Can you use Tools/Torch to see what's going over that interface ?

Best not to add firewall rules without knowing where the traffic comes from or what it is being used for.

You didn't specify for which device this is but for most there should already be an input accept for 127.0.0.1 from default firewall (for capsman).
That also covers lo.

In case you removed that rule, I suggest you put it back.

You can never guarantee 100% wifi availability.

At this point - no. Actually, yes. You can use "capsman or local" for the access points manager. If capsman is available, it will be used. If not, AP will revert to local settings (which are can be pretty identical to capsman settings, so rather easy to copy over once). Other then that, a...

Simple explanation... As of 7.13 wireless is removed from base package in favor of wave 2 drivers. This IS clearly mentioned in release notes. Not a lot seem to care to read those.

The fact your Vodafone SIM is working on both modems, proves there is no HW problem. So there must be a config problem using WINDTRE SIM on the new modem.

Oops, missed that part

Just an observation:
if your aim is to extend L2, why not use EOIP across wireguard ?
Connect both ends of the EOIP interface to their respective bridges and that should be more or less it (be careful with possible loops).

Somewhere in earlier versions it was changed that CPU frequency should be set to auto.
Then the message will disappear.

Good job !

Move bridge to WAN interface list.

At first sight I would say it can be done since the standard 19" rack mount kit can be adjusted. I took a (rough) measurement on the breaking places on my mounted RB5009 (mounted in a 19" frame) and it comes out at just shy of 25.5 cm, that's 10". If you want to be 100% sure, ask supp...

It's a good ap (for the installations I use it for) but it's freaking big !!

Easiest might be to create a second bridge and bundle all WAN ports to it (that would be ether1, 4 and 5 in your case).

The way Mikrotik DHCP server works, it will assign addresses from its pool top-down. Has nothing to do with the network numbering.

Which means don't use VLAN=1 anywhere.

Don't test ON the devices themselves. They are not really suited CPU wise to handle that load. Your results will be too low because the local CPU most likely will not follow. You are also testing via your ISP. You don't know what the impact is there. Use 2 PCs within your network, one on each side o...

Just thinking ...
since your setup is local LAN hence all trusted devices, doesn't it make more sense to use a single connection which remains open instead of setting up the connection each and every time ?
It should be a lot faster.

AX3 is level6.
So for less then 50% of an L6 license, you get the HW too.
You don't have to use the wifi part.

As long as it works, it's ok but suboptimal.

You can specify in Zerotier Instance which interface(s) should be used.
If you leave it to all, it tries all. So don't use all if you do not want it to use WG.

Personally I don't use certificates for capsman.

Because your wireguard interface is not accepted. Simple.

2 options:

add a specific rule to accept input via wireguard as interface

If that does not help, where exactly does My 5G on AX cAP's appears for a few seconds and disappears again happen? On the WiFi tab, on the radios tab, or somewhere else? Most likely DFS frequency gets selected (...

Now you mention this, my explanation was completely backwards :shock: :? Oops ... In that case, tick "responder". That's what it does. It does not go out, it only listens. What it should be then: You should use this for the device which acts as arrival of the connection. Only if some devic...

Change frequency to the LEAST occupied one.
I can get close to 100Mb on 2.4GHz IF you make sure nobody else is on the used frequency (which is rarely the case using that band).

And set your country correct.

You should use this for the device which acts as initiator of the connection. Not if some device is only waiting for connections to come in (useless there). So roadwarrior situation: The mobile device should have it. The "server" not (yeah yeah, wireguard is all peers, I know ...) Site 2 s...

Minimum required amount for RAM on ROS7 is 64Mb.
Hap lite doesn't have that.

It may run on that device but you can expect quite a bit of problems.

I will probably get yelled at for wanting to reject the newest greatest and use the obsolete, but is it possible to use the old wireless packages with the Mantbox ax 15s?

Simple answer: no.
Drivers for AX radios are only in wave2 part. Not in old wireless package.

Why do I have this deja vu feeling?

Same poster, same question, same answers:
viewtopic.php?t=209273

I already had the feeling too I saw this recently with the same reluctance to accept the answer....

Export of config please, no screenshots.

Better approach: Just tested it using mAP Lite, this works better. Start from default. Add wireguard interface Once it's working /routing table add name=useWG fib /ip route add distance=1 dst-address=0.0.0.0/0 gateway=wireguard-inet table=useWG /routing rule add src-address=LANsubnet action=lookup t...

Your config looks rather simple.
Start again from factory setting and change it step by step.
Observe where it stops working.

I'm a bit puzzled too what the cause may be ...

Something is wrong in any case with that interface.
You can already see it because the name is italic.

If I simply add another WG interface on my router, it immediately comes in Running state and no italic name.

What ROS version are you using ?

so your saying, there is no ntp package for smips?

It's not in extra packages ZIP file so yes, it's not available.

And you have the same problem whatever ether port you connect to ?
You also had this problem right after starting config (factory config applied) ?

Because there is a problem with the interface where you want to apply that address to.
That needs to be fixed first.

Best to export your config, edit on PC and remove serial / WAN IP / public keys /...
Then post back in between [code] quotes for easier reading.

Are we necro posting, bpwl ?
Replying to a thread of almost 10 years old ...

Which version of winbox are you using ? Latest is 3.41.

Easy and RouterOS usually don't go in the same sentence :lol: The learning curve is quite steep but once you get how it works, it's amazing what you can do with these devices. I'm looking forward to use it with a 30GB/365-Days plan for only 40€/year. I used to have an SXT LTE in vacation house in So...

OK, already tried putting 7.15.1 on that new device ?
What happens then ?

Because if that works, there might be a bug ...

Which hap are you talking about ? Because normal hAP is MIPSBE, not SMIPS. hAP LITE perhaps ? That one uses smips architecture. What's the exact board model ? NTP server is part of NTP package BUT that package is not available for SMIPS. What other functions besides ntp do you need ? ROS7 is not rec...

Same HW so same switch. But 2 different devices. Semantics perhaps yet important distinction. When doing text compare between configs the only differences are: - that manually added route - ether47 not being added to bridge on old config (possible but doubt it) - IP address is different (but that's ...

Depends on the traffic requirements you have for that LTE link and how good/bad reception is in the area where you want to use it.

A simple AX Lite LTE may already be enough (I use it as road warrior device so not stationary installed, always have it with me in my backpack).

Check IP route
It's different between old and new.
(as in: it's present in new config and it's not in old so there it is default whereas in new it's not default, it has been added)

Check usb part what is being listed there as devices.
Does USB reset bring back the stick ?

If this persists, best to create supout.rif when it disappears again and create ticket with support.

You can also try another USB stick first. Not all brands are equal.

Best to upload your config between [code] quotes.
I don't seem to get the info via that link.

Have you checked on the device or in the box if there is a sticker with default admin passwd ? Already quite some time Mikrotik changed the default admin/<blank> entry to a device-specific passwd, available on sticker or label. It could be your previous device did not have this implemented yet and t...

But this can't work properly, because the ECM routes are ... well ... equal... On DHCP client for ether1 set default distance to something higher. I usually set at least 5 or 10 so my manual routes can be set to a lower distance. For equal destinations, lower distances get preference if they are re...

Your mAP Lite connects to wireguard using ether1.
Your PC connects to your mAP Lite using local DHCP/network/..., yes ?

Treat that wireguard connection as any other ISP connection for everything coming from bridge.

First, a nit: you'll want to remove the "&p" bit from the end of the bookmarks you have, as Fossil's latest anti-bot defenses consider this a "complicated" URL, forcing a redirect to a "honeypot" page meant to trap bots, keeping them from running up the CPU usage o...

Agreed, that the maplite will need two wifi connections, probaby 2ghz to the hotel and 5ghz to the customer laptop for example. Small problem: there is no 5GHz on mAP Lite. You need 2 wireless connections then, one slave of the other. First one to connect to whatever network you want to connect to....

If I'm not much mistaken, RBwAPG-60ad wireless wire kit ...

Ah, missed that one.
You're correct to ask more info.

RouterOS can be quite daunting at first, that's a fact. Learning curve is quite steep, we've all been there (and still learning). As for your problem: Default your device will act as router with its own subnet. Devices connecting to it should have internet access but you can not see them from your n...

Delay will take care of that.
No need to complicate things....

What's the difference between checking in a loop until one minute has passed or simply waiting 1 minute ?
What do you think is easier ?
The result is the same....

It's not because something can be done that you should do it. Already to start it's crazy to install CHR in VM on Qnap. Yes, you can do it. Is it sensible to do so ? Not so much. Performance wise it's (to say it politely) not so smart. And then you want to dive a virtualization level deeper using do...

Make script - on startup
First line: delay 60
And then your line.

what is the problem ?? A misunderstanding of the feature, that's what's wrong, I think. Lock On First - Allows to learn source MAC address from the first received frame, this property should be used together with Port Lock. Learning of the first MAC address will reset every time an interface status...

The better solution ?
Don't put CHR in VM on QNAP.

I think some others already hinted into that direction...

You can use access list to setup passwd per device.

Old thread, I don't know if it is also applicable to AX-line of devices:
viewtopic.php?t=94842

Docker on CHR in VM on Qnap NAS ??
OK ... why not...

https://tangentsoft.com/mikrotik/wiki?n ... re+Not+VMs
(section: CHR Complications)

Are you sure the master is receiving those requests at all ?
No incoming firewall rules blocking some things ?

EOIP it is then ...

But I would regard this as a missed business opportunity.

I don't get it...

You're the isp.
You do control cap and capsman but not the router in between ?

It's not because you don't see it, nothing is/was selected.
An export would have made that clear.

But good you found the problem

i'm an ISP... cAPs are installed into clients shops behind NAT. I have no direct access to cAPs. But cAPs can reach my cAPsManager. No need for all layers using L2tp / IPSEC / EOIP, simple EOIP alone should be enough then, no ? Because you do have direct connection (upstream from cap to capsman). J...

Are you referring to the banner showing Mikrotik logo or something else ?

For first, possibly something can be done using branding package but I never tried it myself.

Your cap AC are most likely using "old" capsman. You need to use wave2 capsman for AX devices, completely separate menu structure. Good thing: you can have both capsman environments on the same controller but you need to be running at least ROS 7.13. See here for more info: https://help.mi...

I'm wondering whether the 25mb up speed is the limiting factor that makes the VPN up/down both about 23mb??

That's what I already indicated.
The slowest link determines the speed for the whole chain.

And you need to test from/to both ways.

There is a mikrotik support team here.

Where ?
This is a USER forum.
Some MT staff visit this place but not all and not everywhere.

The only sure way to get Support attention is to create a support ticket.
