Re: I purchased a CHR license. Why is it still showing as expiring in /system/license/print ? [SOLVED]

This is documented.
CHR licenses are stored in the cloud, the virtual router does not know, whether you have moved or revoked this license. This is why at "deadline" date, it will check status. If license still valid, it will again extend this date to the next check date.

Re: RB2011UiAS-2HnD-IN with ROS 7

Yes, first change to Channel "Upgrade" and upgrade to that 7.12 version, after that, newer versions will become available.

RB2011UiAS is okay with v7
RB2011L series might be too slow, but you have the better model.

Re: 📣 WinBox 4 is here 📣

Saduff, we managed to repeat the issue. It does not crash the router, but there is high load and a delay, when the Workspace tries to load certain non-existing switch related windows. We are fixing it.

Edit: Although it turns out, this is a RouterOS bug, not winbox. I also added it to the list.

Re: 📣 WinBox 4 is here 📣

No auto reconnect or open in new window options. In v4 whenever the device needs to reboot, changing frequency in an AP for example, v4 closes and requires a manual restart. This is wastes time that most field techs don't have. Please re-instate. There is auto reconnect with a countdown and it works.
