Re: GrooveGA-52HPacn won't save LAN IP address

Thanks everyone for your help. I did the netinstall with the option checked to "Apply default config" to which I received the same error, that only "Ethernet" is available in the QuickSet menu. "Ethernet" is not a valid option. I have been working with MikroTic support ...

Re: GrooveGA-52HPacn won't save LAN IP address

According to the MicroTik documentation, "Ethernet" seen on my QuickSet panel is not even a valid choice for QuickSet options. If I understood more about this product, it would be easier to resolve the issue. For example some places in various online documentation refer to ordering the &qu...

Re: GrooveGA-52HPacn won't save LAN IP address

Previously I back-leveled the firmware one release with netinstall to check if doing this resolved anything. It did not.. The failure is the same with the previous version or the most recent version. It remains a failure no matter if I upgrade the firmware or back-level it. However, just now I upgra...

Re: GrooveGA-52HPacn won't save LAN IP address

I also tried loading in the script you suggested. I went to files option and uploaded the file and tried using it but it vanished on the next reboot. I discovered I had to upload the file, then drag it down on top of the "flash" directory and it got auto named "flash/Grove.rsc" ....

Re: GrooveGA-52HPacn won't save LAN IP address

As always, thank you for your support. I have an old 52HPn that you helped me with last week. When I upgraded firmware on the old unit, the device automatically set itself up for QuickSet CPE. Do you have any idea how to change the QuickSet Ethernet-only option to a CPE option on this new GrooveGA-5...

GrooveGA-52HPacn won't save LAN IP address

Brand new out of the box 52Hpacn won't allow the LAN IP address to be set and saved on the quick set menu. It claims to save it but when I click quick set again, it's back to all red 0.0.0.0. I tried first setting the button to router, then saving that config, then rebooting the router and the route...

Re: Groove 52Hpn - can't talk to it after reset << wireshark trace added

I can't thank you enough for all your help. This has been a learning experience. Either via software or an altered firmware bit, the reset key would never reset the device. Additionally the unit would never go into boot mode with the 15 second hold down either and that must have been the result of w...

Re: Groove 52Hpn - can't talk to it after reset << wireshark trace added

I am now wondering if the reset key is even working. I have 3 identical, same issues but from same source.

Re: Groove 52Hpn - can't talk to it after reset << wireshark trace added

From what I can see, the modem never goes into boot mode and the protocol from Wireshark monitoring seems similar no matter if I hold the reset button in for 15 seconds, 30 seconds, the first beep or the double beep. I tried several more laptops today and changed the address to 10.0.0.1 (assumed) fo...

Re: Groove 52Hpn - can't talk to it after reset

I've had batches of Grooves that had a default configuration as an AP/Bridge with no IP. Does the Groove show up in Winbox with an IP of 0.0.0.0 if connected by ethernet then use the Mac address to connect? Check your wireless device to see if your Groove is broadcasting a Network name of Mikrotik-...

Re: Groove 52Hpn - can't talk to it after reset

I have started Wireshark on the HP Laptop, capturing exclusively the Grooe 52Hpn traffic after power on of the device while holding in the RESET button for 15 seconds at which time all the lights go off and then releasing the button. The netinstall program never initializes to show the Groove MAC ad...

Re: Groove 52Hpn - can't talk to it after reset

Thank you for your reply. I have tried a recently purchased Windows 10 laptop with only a USB-c to LAN adapter available to connect. I used the Windows 10 system both with and without an Ethernet switch and could not connect using netinstall vai either direct connect or switched. I also today tried ...

Groove 52Hpn - can't talk to it after reset << wireshark trace added

From all I have seen the Groove devices are supposed to default to 192.168.88.1 I bought this unit used, I did the plug in with the reset tab held in, the lights danced and flickered, the unit beeped a couple of times and the bar graph zipped up and down a few times, but from the Windows command pro...
