MikroTik

JJX

I am not using N or AC technology; these are two 802.11a and one 802.11b links with low speed requirements. (On a previous post I incorrectly posted that all are 5ghz) Yes, indeed this is an old setup (5 years old or more) where these technologies were not available. All links are point-to-point lin...

JJX

After doing some changes link is now constantly -66/-66 both ways and RTD is more constant

pings.PNG

However, I see huge difference in badwidth test:

Sent traffic reach 27 Mbits, receive constant to 1mbit with some 15 mbit peaks: this shows on which side of the link is a problem?

JJX

I have 3 links, all 5 ghz, all with cm9 cards.
All link have a dish plus a 5ghz feeder
I dont have firewall, and 30% CPU isnt too high I think

rates are already locked:

rates.PNG

I will upgrade to 6.40.2

JJX

BW test also shows problems with the link...

BR433 on my side with cm9 cards

Firmware seems updated:

There are no obstacles in the path.

JJX

I have a 3km link, 5Ghz.Tx/Rx is 77/66; this should be enough for a stable link For some reason I have randomly huge delays in ping. Usually I get 2 ping around 5 ms and then a few around 500ms I am using version 6.40.1 CPU is about 30% without any special routing features Any idea what it might cau...

JJX

Under PPP, I see "0 out of 8". What does this mean?

Capture.PNG

In the past I had PPTP server configured on this mikrotik, on the other side sometime I see connection attempts from the server but everything is disabled.

Is there some configuration left on this mirkotik?

JJX

After replacing the cm9 card the issue didn't appear again

JJX

After I enable debug in wireless I get this error: if-wifi: no network that satisfies connect-list, by default choose strongest signal I think for some reason mikrotik is searching for other SSID that is causing the disconnections problems.... Any idea why mikrotik produce this error? Current mikrot...

JJX

I will send an update the next time the problem reappears

JJX

1) Yes, but it should be enough to handle an 24 MBit DSL and 3 WiFi clients.... If excessive traffic was the issue, the problem should be solved after a reboot or should reappear after the reboot (when all connections are re-established) 2) /system resource print uptime: 21h2m22s version: 6.33.3 (st...

Hello all, almost every week (maximum 10 days) my mikrotik suddenly reach 100% CPU and network starts to become slow.

JJX

Yes, I am used to Cisco interface

I was using LAN interface, probably this is the problem

JJX

No.
I am doing a src-nat to allow MT -LAN to access internet.
The problem remains even if I disable the rule

Later tonight I will upload a full network diagram; maybe I am missing something

JJX

- Netmask mistake was the first suspect but I have triple checked and seem correct. - Devices are windows, but those windows hosts do NOT have any problem. The problem is MT_2 related: it cannot ping the other side when selecting the LAN interface as source /26 was selected because it is an interfac...

JJX

- No firewall rules. - MT_2 AP interface can reach MT_1 LAN - MT_2 LAN interface can NOT reach MT_1 LAN After some troubleshooting I find out what may cause the issue: 1) devices attached to MT1_LAN & MT2_LAN can communicate between them without any issue. 2) The problem is only isolated to the ...

So many bugs/problems and still no new version...

JJX

I am afraid that the x86 PC is not booting anymore

So, I cant export the file

JJX

Upgrade sucessfull - 20h without problem

JJX

Is it possible to move configuration from x86 PC to a routerboard?

I know that the interface will not match, but as soon as I connect and fix/match the interfaces everything should be ok?
Or it is a bad practise that will lead to problems in near future ?

JJX

JJX

No vlans are configured.
The problem was solved after resetting the whole configuration and configuring everything from scratch

In the meantime, MT support proposed to delete all interfaces IPs and BGP configuration, then reconfigure those and check if it is working. This didnt work

JJX

I just installed the new licence for version 6.4.
The problem is that although I receive routes traffic is not forwaded!!

I will use a new flash plus a new licence (which I expect tomorrow). At the moment I am using the level 0 licence.

I receive routes from the BGP neighbors. However, when I use the mikrotik as gateway (from my lan), the traffic is stuck and I cannot access anything!

Yep! Worked magnificent

I found a different solution: after a user logins, can be applied a different IP using the attribute "address pool" in the group it belongs. So although the PC is assigned a IP from DHCP, the webserver will show a different IP; that IP can be managed from mikrotik. Then I created a mangle ...

This script is nice, but has a minor problem:
when it runs it will disconnect ALL users that are currently connected to hotspot and all users have to relogin.
Is possible to find a way that will remove only the matched users from the active list?!

Well, you can always turn your RouterBoard into a Linux box by replacing ROS with Openwrt or Debian. Then you can install and run your own Linux apps as desired or your talent allows. Short of that, I doubt you will see Mikrotik add something like Hamachi to RouterOS. Tom MT has an amazing interfac...

Hamachi has a linux version, MT can create a package for hamachi?

It would be a nice feature
