Is the S+85DLC03D transceiver compatible only with CCR routers or it is compatible with other brand switch and interface cards? I'm looking to connect a remote server with a fiber link to a switch with SFP+ port and since these transceivers costs like one third of the cheaper I've found I'd like to ...

Nobody know how I could provide DNS suffix to my VPN users?

Thanks

Are the clients Mikrotik, Windows? Are you trying to make the client connected with a PPTP link as if it is "physically" connected to you network? It's not gonna work. EoIP would be a better solution only if the client is another MK. For my windows clients, I created a pool of address that...

Hi, I'm using MT as my firewall and VPN server. (PPTP) I assigned an address pool to the VPN profile. So far so good, the users are connecting and can resolve names. The only problem is when they don't receive a DNS suffix. So my question is how do I push a dns suffix to the dns clients other than c...

Hi, I'm looking to deploy a wifi in the G or A band in a shop. The shop have 1000 feets long by 200 feets large and 20 feets high. Due to walls and machines placement on the shop floor I assume I will need 4-5 APs to get good coverage. I have to connect: - 5 wireless barcode reader. (VT 100 terminal...

Which radio card do you use? I had similar problems last week at one of our site. I istalled this site on december 29. Clients near the tower 400m max was browsing fast in b mode. COnnection very stable; tested with bwtester. Ack timeout was ok for the distance 30, 100% CCQ and the rates were 11/11 ...

What's are the ping time if the AP is in B mode only? I have 2 sites that have an erratic ping time to the clients when I set the AP in B/G or G only, but works flawlessly in B mode. Independently of the distance of the CPE 100m to 7km. Both are running Atheros based card and have more than 15 clien...

Use snooper along with Freq. Usage to select the best channel.

The CCQ must be as close to 100% as possible.

The signal is important, but -75dBm with ~80ccq is better to me than -60dBm with ~20ccq.

Would it be possible to have a startup script that we can set global variables into?

I've searched the forum a lot and did find that Ros do not support MLPPP as a client, but does it support it as a server?

Hi, one of my PPPOE serveur have ~70 concurrent connnexions. I have ~220 address in my PPPOE pool. The problem is that sometime, when a client reconnect the server assing a new address and don't free the old one. Hence I have several ip address that belong to a user in /ip/pool/used but only one is ...

We have a 1.5km 900mhz link using WDS. It is working in G only mode and it can sustain 15mbps of throughput.

I first had problems configuring the link in the lab. The client saw the AP but was not able to connect. I changed one of the card, I don't remember which one, and now it works.

I only use the Pac Wireless POE-48i power injectors.

I'm using 18v (15w) power supply. This is probably why I'm having problems...

It is not a SR5, but I've tested a SR2 and a CM9 in a RB112. It ran fine for one hour and then the device started to reboot over and over. I removed the CM9 and it ran ok.

The SR2/5 drain too much power to have a second card in a RB112.

Which version of ROS do you run on these box? I had a 14km link that had similar problems; good signal, no noise, but low CCQ. I updated the ROS version from 2.9.7 to 2.9.23 at each end and saw the CCQ pass from 20-30 to 60-70 and the throughput pass from 2-4mbps to 15mbps. I did not change anything...

The SR9 can see a 2.4ghz AP. I have a SR9 and a CM9 in one case. The CM9 is a 2.4 AP working on channel 11. When I scan with the SR9, it can see the 2.4 AP at -86db on channel 11. With the CM9 AP off, the SR9 noise floor is -93 and -86 (duh!) when the CM9 is on. I think that the SR9 is some kind of ...

I'm using the burst function for that kind of stuff.

We did test a couple of SR5 with a spectrum analyser and did not get any reading above 21dB. The radios was transmitting at 6mbps and we did set the radio in aling mode so it was always transmitting. The cards was installed in a wrap and a RB532. Both was pumping out the same amount of power. These ...

Check your noise floor. You probably don't have a good signal to noise value. Especially if your in a noisy environment; the amp is probably your worst enemy because it will also increase the noise. On one of my link, the noise floor jumped from -90 to -80 when I added an amp. Use a bigger antenna i...

I have set up a couple of wpa link without problem. 2.9.8 and 2.9.11. With winbox and with the command line.

Right now I have 2 RB532 with 2.9.11 on my desk and I'm able to create any wpa-psk profile I want.

Use the "tab" key. It'll auto complete. If it does not, press it again to have the available options.

Is there a bandwidth tester like the one we can have for Windows, but for linux?

All of our base station runs on Mikrotik and our CPE are linux. A band width test tool would be really useful in order to test the real link speed between the client and the AP.

Thanks

I replaced a CM9 with a SR2 and all of my CB3 are connecting without problems.

I also have other b/g units on this ap, but the AP is set to b mode.

I thought that people were reporting running two of the SR2/5 cards without any problems on the Routerboard500's. Eric Those who can run 2 SRx in a RB probably don't have much load on the RB. I ran 2 SR2 in a RB532; one for the client side and the other for the backhaul. During the installation, I ...
