We have over 20 CCR's in production.
The only one that locked up was acting as an NTP Server.
All other CCR's are NTP clients that sync with our Cisco Core/Edge router.

seeing 25-30% improvement on PtMP live RB800/R52Hn AP with 15 customers using 6.14rc25 with the wireless-fp package, default-small set to pcq on the RB711G-5HnD CPE and wlan1 on the AP set to only-hardware. had a different AP (an RB800/R52Hn with 100 customers on 3 wireless cards) lock up while upgr...

are you using NV2?
virtual AP's don't work if they are using NV2.

Beeski

Are the wireless improvements in 6.13rc23 included in the official 6.13 release?
Can you give us a description of these improvements?
thanks,

Have anyone tried DHCP server on VLAN yet ? Any comments ?

500users - haha Recommend RB1200 or 1100AH - no difference if you have only 50Mbit WAN up to 150Mbit For more there is sense to think about CCR 2000 users - upto 500 concurrent. also 10 regular VPN users. We are aware that those models may well be up to it, but from what i've heard they don't scale...

Beeski

on all those RB800, did you upgrade FW to 3.02 as well?

Yes, all our AP's and CPE's are on 3.02

Beeski

In 5.23 I have wireless lockups in an 711GA-5HnD, nstream.
does 5.24 resolves it?
thanks

So far, 5.24 has not locked up in over 100 RB800 AP's running NV2 connecting to RB711's

Beeski

lockup with AP and CPE's on 5.23rc1
supout.rif sent to support

RB800 AP
wlan1 is r52Hn
CPE's are 711's

Beeski

For everyone with this problem. Try latest 5.23rc1 with fix

We are testing 5.23rc1
So far, so good.

Sounds like it is the same issue in this thread:

We have experienced the same problem on 5.22 and even on the 5.23 pre-release. Sending multiple supout.rif's to Support. No fix yet. Getting frustrated. We have written a script to disable/enable the wlan card that locks up.....but it is not foolproof. Mikrotik, please give this issue adequate resou...

Beeski

Day 4 of 5.22 testing = no problems.
3 RB800 AP's with R52Hn wireless cards
1 RB493 switch
10 RB711 CPE's

Waiting for more feedback before we roll-out 5.22 to hundreds of AP's and thousands of CPE's.

Beeski

couple of pointers:
a) we do 12v instead of 24v for the RB433
b) we do not use POE to power the RB433

Beeski

We have had office buildings with 6-7 CPE's on them. Try to have at lease 1 meter / 3ft vertical separation. Putting in a single 433 / 493 with ethernet runs to the customers is what we now do, once we get more than 2 CPE's on a building. re: dual-pol, we are in the process of upgrading our single-p...

Beeski

Anyone updated to that test release and could tell us if this issue is fixed? So far, 8000 pings, zero drops. AP = RB800 with 3 R52Hn cards in AP Bridge mode, A/N, NV2 CPE = RB711-5HnD in Station Bridge mode, A/N, any -55/-51 tx/rx signals, 130Mbps/130Mbps rate 30Mbps down steady tcp speed test 80M...

Beeski

Shields? Can you give more info?

Sector antenna shields like these:
http://www.rfarmor.com/cart/
and these:
http://www.ispsupplies.com/brands/Ubiquiti-Shield-Kits/

which keep unwanted interference from hitting your antenna
especially helpful with dual-polarity sector antennas

Beeski

I am seeing more stability (no drops) and as good / better speeds on the two AP's and their CPE's I've upgraded to 5.21RC1.
We also have installed shields on our 90 degree dual-pol sectors, they made a huge difference.

Beeski

we are upgrading to:
AP = RB800 with 3 R52Hn cards
Poynting dual-pol enclosure with 60degree sector antenna
90 degree dual-pol Ubiquiti sector antennas
WaveGuard or RFArmor antenna shields

CPE = RB711 inside dual-pol Poynting enclosure

Beeski

Will this be the basis of the future Mikrotik R52Hac?

Beeski

I am bringing GPS Sync back to the front.
It will become my most important issue.
We have over 4000 RB411's and RB711's on hundreds of AP's.
I need GPS Sync to allow more customers on my crowded towers.
Please MT, make it a priority for RouterOS 6

Beeski

Ok done a little more digging. So it looks like nstreme dual is reaching its EOL. NV2 is now the hot item for ptmp. If I understand this correctly I should run nv2 on a 2 chain N system to get the max speed MIMO has to offer? Is Nv2 better to use in a PTP setup than dual nstreme at this time? I hav...

Beeski

upgraded an RB800 with R52Hn cards that is an AP, running NV2 802.11n 5Ghz
wireless tx/rx signal strength improved 3 to 4 db

Beeski

no problems running 5.6 on RB532's.
I've been upgrading a number of RB532's from rOS 3.x
I upgrade using this sequence:
a) to rOS 3.30, then get a new license
b) to rOS 4.17
c) to rOS 5.6

Firmware is 2.18 for all 3 rOS releases.

any update on 5.4Ghz frequencies for country code = US?

Beeski

we've had 2 out of 4 burn up, one immediate, the other after an hour.
I agree that when it comes to radios, MT should focus on supporting Ubiquiti cards.....they work for years.

Beeski

Poynting's dual-pol 5Ghz enclosure/antenna has worked great for us. An RB600 fits inside.

Beeski

We are deploying hundreds...maybe over 1000 MT133C customer radios and a remote site survey tool is very much needed. All of our preceding CPE's (Deliberant, Smartbridges, Proxim) all had this capability. Deliberant also gave us the capability to connect to a secondary backup AP if the primary failed.
