Access to SFP module UI

Hello everyone, I’m running RouterOS 7.19beta8 on an RB5008UPr+S+. I have an ONU plugged into the SFP port with management IP 192.168.1.100/24, and this network is bridged into my main LAN (192.168.88.0/24). Until recently I could point my PC at http://192.168.1.100 and reach the ONU’s web interface...

Honestly, this is the worst piece of hardware I've ever had the misfortune of encountering. I've spent 20 years working in IT, and this device takes the cake for having the most convoluted control interface I've ever seen for a home or small business device. The interface itself looks like it was ri...

According to my tests on hAP ax² 7.8rc1 has 15..20% lower WiFi speed comparing to 7.7.
Tested 3 times in a row. Rolled back to 7.7.
