A 14dBi omni has a pretty narrow beamwidth so AP antenna height may be a factor. However, you are saying some work and some don't within the same areas so that probably isn't the issue. For the location you mentioned having issues, do the clients have a clear line of sight to the AP Antenna? Any Fre...

firebat

What frequency are you using?
What are you using as the AP antenna?
What type of antennas are the clients using?
What is the signal strength that the client is seeing and what is the distance?

firebat

Didn't realize that. When do you expect to have a MT based wireless card and support?

firebat

Normis:

Does Miktrotik have throughput performance measurements for each of its routerboards with different packet sizes? It would be nice to have a table so everyone can reference it (obvioulsy caveated with lab and test scenario information).

firebat

Thanks for the pointer. That looks like it would do the trick.

firebat

What can we expect in non-turbo/non-Nstream for UDP and TCP throughput?
IMHO it must be MAX wirelesly possible (and as you know it depends on the frame size)

If that's the case, it's time for 802.11N draft support (Though, haven't noticed if there is a mini-pci card even made)

firebat

firebat

Approaching 3 months tomorrow since the start of the thread. Still no comment from MT.

firebat

Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of. I was hoping Mikrotik might have some input themselves as well from their testing.

firebat

I'm looking for the same info.

firebat

What can we expect in non-turbo/non-Nstream for UDP and TCP throughput?

firebat

Anyone test the throughput of an RB333 in PtP link configuration? What's the max throughput that you are seeing? I'm specificially interested in the 5.3/5.8 bands.

firebat

Anyone have an RB333 running with three wireless cards as of yet? How is the performance? Any issues with router OS v3 and this config?

firebat

Thanks. Since the PC will be logging into muliple APs throughout the network, I would need to setup mapped IPs on all APs which is not desireable. I was hoping for a way to have multuple MACs in a filter rule.

firebat

How do you use the list function for MAC addresses? I can see how to use it for source/destination IP addresses.

firebat

Is there a way to do this?

firebat

Anyone?

firebat

Thanks for the comments. :D In order for the MESH to work, all APs need to have the same SSID.

We want and need the new features that are coming. That's why we are asking. The BETAs were coming out a frequent pace and then all of a sudden stopped. It's just a simple question with the expectation of a simple answer: Next week, a month, never.

This thread must be the pink elephant in the room?

firebat

Normis:

Can someone give us an ETA on the next BETA? It must going to have a lot of enhancements in it

firebat

You can run your own server mail server (on your Dude NMS machine if desired). Look into postcast. There is a free version available.

What's the throuput of the RB133? Both wireless to wired ether port and wired ether to wired ether?

firebat

How do you have your notifications setup?

firebat

I changed to 2.9.41 routing-test and the issue is not reproduciable with it.

firebat

If you have 8 ether ports in the machine, you can assign each to which ever partition/VM that you wish? Can you assign CPU affinity, etc also?

firebat

Can we make this post sticky again?

In order to create a function, you need to find an OID(s) that you can use in the calculation. Maybe someone is already doing this and will chime in as you are desiring :) Other way is to find out what message is logged in the router log when a client connects and assuming you are using a syslog ser...

firebat

Just modify the hdd_usage function. Take the result, multiply by 100, round (will remove to nearest integer) and then divide by 100. This will give you two decimal points. You can multiply/divide by whatever you want to get the resolution desired.

Oh OK. So if you disconnect the serial cable between the UPS and the the PC running Router OS, it doesnt reboot.

Hopefully Mikrotik will pop in to provide some light.

I have always used mangement cards in the smartUPSs and manageme them via IP.

Thanks Uldis. Can the parameters be set on Device type instead of or in addition to the SNMP profile? Or should we just make a specific profile for slow devices?

This is my config: 1. RB153 with one wireless card. 2. ether1 and ether2 are disabled 3. ether3,4,5 are bridged with IP address 192.168.2.30 assigned to the Bridge1 interface. 4. WLAN1 is the single wireless card with IP 10.5.50.1/24 5. Default route is set to 192.168.2.2 6. no NAT is enabled The b...

Yeah, I tried that and it didn't work in 2.9.40. Like I said, 2.9.40 user manager cant even see changes that you make via the CLI. I tried adding a new customer as an owner via the user manager and I get an error indicating only subscribers can be owners. I add it via the CLI and it is fine but user...

OK. Maybe no one is reading what i wrote above. I said I have a parent simple queue that all other queuse are a child of. The child queues are limited bandwidth for users. The parent queue is what I had a question about with fairness. I can make the parent queue a PCQ, SFQ, whatever type you want. W...

Is wireless MAC authenication supported in 2.9.40 or is it in BETA3? I tried to set it up in 2.9.40 and its not working.

Also, is anyone seeing issues with adding a customer or a router via the CLI and it not showing up in user manager in 2.9.40? (still there in CLI)

firebat

Thanks Marksx. For Simple Queues, you can specify the queue to be any type, just like Queue Trees. I still don't understand why you cant use hierarchial simple queues to achieve the same affect as queue trees? If I create a parent simple queue as type SFQ, shouldn't that work? The reason I was tryin...

I'm trying to creat a probe that uses an OID created with the use of the custom field of the element.

OK, This is what I was asking about originally: I have a router with interfaces: cloud: connected to internet (2MB connection) ether1: connected to Access Point 1 (10MB Connection) ether2: connected to Access Point 2 (10MB Connection) I have created the following Simple Queues: 1. Cloud Queue using ...

firebat

So what is my implementation going to accomplish that I proposed? Its not going to work? You can create simple queues as a PCQ type. I tried creating a queue tree on an interface in addition to simple queues limiting user BW but it didn't work.

So you are saying that there is no way to shape overall traffic on the outgoing interface (ingress/egress) for all users if you are using simple queues for limiting bandwidth for each users?

firebat

I have the following config. I have two APs on separate subnets connected to two different router ports. On each subnet, I have CPEs that need to be on the same VLAN. Can I bridge the VLANs on two the two different ports (same VLAN ID/subnet assigned to each port)?

Why not mangle packets and mark icmp packets with "icmp". Then add a queue with sufficient priority and use the packet mark of "icmp" for the queue.

firebat

The queue type just indicates which type of queue it is. Each queue created is isolated from others and if the Bandwidth is avaialble, they will get the full rate set.

firebat

Do you mean that having a main simple queue limiting overall bandwidth and each user in a sub queue will not yield equal sharing amongst users?

firebat

My only suggestion is to change the interface to the one that your PC is connected. You PC is definetly .14? Also, 16kb = 2kB

I need a quick clarification on simple queues. For an example, I have 10 simple queues rate limiting 10 users by IP in the network. All are set to approx the same max/min settings and all queues are at the same level. Will all of the users equally share the Bandwidth when they are simultaneosuly usi...

What's the best implementation to perform the following: 1. Rate limit users using simple Queues 2.

Thanks Normis. That's good news. I hope the new release comes out soon....

Ryan- Thanks for the quick reply and useful information. I added the two strings you listed to the apperance of an AP I am monitoring by simple ICMP - as expected it displays the two RSSI values of SUID 8. 1. Must every SU be manually added in this fashion? 2. Does The Dude keep a log of the RSSI v...

Hi Scott: Yes, you can add all of this info. The AP is the only element that has an SNMP engine and it polls the SUs for the SU RSSI and associated values. If you perform an SNMP walk on the AP, you'll see the SU table. For SU specific info, I created some functions to get all of the pertinent info ...

Well maybe not overseas. I mainly use it for bittorrents and gaming. It takes me about 7-8 min for a 4 gb dvd movie. I pay 42 USD/month.

I'm jealous.

This is really a requirement, not a feature. I would assume MT performs upgrade/import testing before release new versions.

firebat

Will user Manger eventually be able to support a major release without having to upgrade router OS to the same Rev as the user manager package? Is there be an abstraction layer for a major release that can reduce this dependecny.

firebat

Its down to a week and we'll have Paypal integration.

I'm feeling a bit ignored.

MT, any comment?

firebat

There already is round function that leaves one digit after the decimal:
round(x * 10) / 10

OK

Not quite what I was expecting but it's a workaround. Why not add a precision option to the round function so you can specify the number of digits to use/display for calculations?

Information about new Routerboards have very few details. It's enough to say they coming. Nobody knows the sizes, and anything but power consumption and expected CPU power.

I have the same problem. I upgraded from Beta12 to 2.1 and several of my functions are returning 10-15 digits past the decimal. I need at least one decimal. The round function only rounds to an integer which isn't what I want. There should be a round function that will allow you to specify the numbe...

When is the new back-end database going to be implemented? Will it be in 3.0?

firebat

If I set the the limit-at rule priority higher than other customers, the customer at the higher level will get more bandwidth due to MAX-limit.

I wanted to understand what Normis's comment.

firebat

How long do we have to wait?

Yeah. That looks a bit chilly. I'm looking for something with a little more horse power and memory. Maybe you guys are coming out with some bigger RBs in the near future?

Thanks Normis for the reply. Questions and comments: CIR is committed information rate. We also have Max Limit and burst limit. At times of no congestion, we should be running at the Burst limit or Max limit. CIR is the comitted/guaranteed rate but you should be able to run at Max limit in times of ...
