It barely fits in the bolts of the mikrotik rack. I had to use force in order to bolt it down. The adaptors would need to be 2-3 mm longer.

Re: cap-ac: cannot provide internet

You cannot setup capac from hexs like that, unless capsman, but that is really not needed.

If in hexs ports 2,5 are in a bridge, set manually IP at your pc in the range of capac; is that 192.168.88.1? Then make yours 192.168.88.2. And open winbox and connect to 192.168.88.1.
