Hi Mikrotik Gurus,

Is the radar scan active for all channels 100-140 (5500-5700), or just for 120-128 (5600-5640) ? What about channel 52 - 64 ?

will the dfs change also be in 6.36.1 ?

Feaure Request: Watchdog to watch multiple IP addresses

Hi, It would be fine if the hardware watchdog could check more than one ip adresses, only rebooting if all of them failed. If the checked device is down, the checking device is rebooting even if it doesnt have a problem itself via watchdog. checking more than one device would solve that. thanks, Maria

Re: Virtual AP and NV2

having seperate radios for each provider is the only way to do it for the moment, BUT free channels and space for antennas is not an endless resource.

especially in crowded areas its a huge difference to coorinate 3 oder 6 channels (out of 9, cause 3 cant be used cause of radar reservetion).
