What is the recommendation in noisy environments? Running nv2 with adaptive-noise-immunity switched on on client and AP? Does ist affect nv2 operation at all? I always use it. To be honest be surprised by the question. Why NOT use them? With adaptive-noise-immunity turned on throughput and latency ...

Upgraded two nv2 sectors to current release candidate, 20 subscribers each. Now clients with good RSSI/CCQ get reasonable speed, while clients with low RSSI/CCQ are stil performing bad. Also the average throughput on the sectors almost doubled during peak times (from 8-10 to 16-20 Mbps). Running thi...

Hi! We are currently updating all our P2P and P2MP MikroTiks to the current v6.4 firmware and thereby configuring NV2 wireless prioritization for ICMP and SIP traffic. As this works great on our MikroTik APs where the PPPoE traffic is not encapsulated in a VLAN, we don't get it working on P2P links ...

@scotthammersley: Any idea what could be the issue?

I tested it with v6.6 and v6.7. I think I had also a test client with 6.10, but I'm not sure about it...

scotthammersley, n21roadie: Thanks a lot for your suggestions! At the moment I don't bother about prioritization of different types of traffic, e.g. best-effort, voip, p2p etc. Now, in the first step, I just want to limit the maximum allowed bandwidth. Prioritization will be the next step after band...

Other vendors, e.g. Ubiquity and Alvarion are offering the opportunity to limit the upstream/downstream bandwidth directly at the CPE (wireless client). Why use one heavy device with a strong CPU if you can distribiute the work to many small CPUs? Another benefit of limitng the bandwidth directly at...

Hi, our MikroTik SXTs stop passing PPPoE traffic/passes traffic really slow (e.g. with 50 kbps) with configured bridge and simple queue on ether1 interface after some random time. Only PPPoE traffic is allowed to pass the bridge. Problem exists on RouterOS v6.7 and earlier. After setting use-ip-fire...

from my view point ...the best way ,is by user proflie ( hot spot & pppoe )... Where will the bandwidth limitation then be applied? At the AP or the client? We are already using is a FreeRADIUS server using Mikrotik-Rate-Limit reply attribute. But then the queue for bandwidth limitation will sh...

Hi guys! What's the correct way to achieve bandwidth limitation and priorization of VoIP traffic on the CPE side (SXT 5HPnD)? We want to do the bandwidth limitation on the customer CPEs to data rates with 1024k/512k, 2048k/768k, 3072k/1024k (downlink/uplink). What we also want to achieve is to prior...

I've a script for this but changing the power/antenna gain cause a reconnect.

ste, this sounds interesting. Can you share your "ATPC" script?

Thanks,
Robert

Hi libove, I tested such a setup in a live network last night using RouterOS 5.22 and two RB1100AHx2 boards. I only tested IPv4 and VRRP version 3. Both routers got IP addresses from another subnet as the virtual IP address. All of them were public IP addresses. Having only one virtual IP address at...

@Basdno: Interesting info about the CPU usage... I will check this on my board and compare with the CPU usage values in the past. But at first I have to update my Nagios configuration as the SNMP OIDs have changed after the update.

Thank you for this hint! This is exactly the information I was looking for. We do not run MPLS on this board... but OSPF, some IPIP tunnels, PPPoE-Servers and a lot of traffic management. I did an update last night, without any problems. The board is now up for almost eight hours and all services se...

Hi, I want to upgrade a RB1100AH from 4.17 to 5.14 because I need the GRE tunnel feature introduced with version 5.x. The board is in production and about 500 kilometers away, so I just want to know if there are any known issues with 5.14 (e.g. port flapping, booting with attached modem on serial po...

After upgrading RB1100AHx2 from 5.12 to 5.13 some ethernet ports started flapping. Interfaces going up and down every 10 seconds.

5.12 works fine.

On the first sight I think we're on the same wavelenght... I also want an additional option for the DHCP client for almost the same thing you mentioned. ;-) See: http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=47781 Has anyone submitted this feature request to support@mikrotik.com yet? Regards, Ro...

Hi, I'm currently gettin' totally insane configuring a RB450 with 5 ethernet ports similar to a simple switch but gain some more traffic control (using ip firewall etc. for traffic limitation/prioritization using bridge interface). What I'm trying to configure is: Port 1 : Uplink Port Port 2 : Recei...

Hi, @mrz: Do you mean, adding the interface to an vrf instance the default route from dhcp-client should be added with the corresponding routing-mark? Well, I just tested it, and the default route will not get into the routing table with the routing-mark set. So indeed, using VRF a new option for th...

Hi, I want to submit a feature request for a dhcp-client option I want to call add-default-route-to-table . I want to use the explanation from http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Routing_via_a_DHCP_allocated_gateway : Sometimes a box can have a DHCP allocated address, but the gateway for that address is n...

RB1000 discontinued?!
http://www.routerboard.com/pricelist.php?showProduct=57

We have this problem since the day we bought our first RouterBOARD from MikroTik (RB1000) 1,5 years ago. Well, if I remember correctly, the board had RouterOS v3.22 installed. Since that day we're always looking forward for the next firmware update hoping they fixed it. cuz2000m: The support told me...

sergejs, I already contacted support multiple times... the last hint was to upgrade 5.0 beta. But I'm afraid of doing that, as the routerboard is on a production network serving about 120 PPPoE clients at the moment. Thinking a lot, my last thoughts yesterday were, if anybody having this issue maybe...

The same problem occurs here, too. With about 100 users on RB1000 PPPoE server. All sessions disconnect simultaneously. The RB1000 has two uplinks to two different providers using PPPoE for their connection, too. Also the uplink PPPoE sessions disconnect from time to time. Two weeks there was no pro...

Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for...

Hi, is there a way to prioritize PPPoE-encapsulated SIP and RTP packets? We have an RB1000 as AC (PPPoE server), from this point there are several wireless PtP links and APs. As we're encrypting the wireless link the PPPoE server is setup to not use any encryption, so it would be possible to access ...

Hi, I configured my RouterBOARD with IP address 10.0.0.1/24 and PPPoE server on ether4 . On ether1 to ether3 there are ADSL2+ modems (with IP addresses 10.0.0.5-7). Everytime I need to access one of the DSL modems via telnet to get synchronization details I have to move the IP address from ether4 to...

Hi guys, I'm completely new to this Mikrotik stuff. I purchased a RouterBOARD 1000 with RouterOS on it as well as a current Level-6 license to see if it can do what I want them to do. The RouterBOARD runs Version 3.10 of RouterOS and the Level-6 License is the latest Version 3.16. In the first step,...

Hi ebandrew! Would it be possible to get your configuration for this setup? I'm really interested in it because I'm trying to setup exactly the same since a few days. Do you just have a single L2TP link between LAC and LNS or multiple L2TP links over different ISPs from the LAC to the LNS? I want to...
