Yes, and that one will stay for now. As seen in the thread, it is a much more divisive topic, than main window Tabs

It is under consideration as a configurable option. Zebras vs full grid.

Left / right two finger scrolling (swiping) on Macbook Air track pad does not scroll the wide windows left and right. You have to move the mouse down to the bottom of the window and drag the slider left / right.

this bug is already known and reported multiple times in this thread

Code: Select all
*) return tab based interface, while keeping benefits of dropdowns
This is only half done. Most people want these WebFig style dropdowns as tabs too.

most people?

P.S: why is your winbox so small?

Infabo, do you ever try something, before complaining? There is an option to hide tabs!

What's new in v4.0beta6:

*) minor UI improvements

What's new in v4.0beta5:

*) return tab based interace, while keeping benefits of dropdowns
*) move action buttons into table toolbar
*) change style for active sub window
*) fix macOS self-update on some systems
*) stability improvements

No, it's not a good summary, because the very first post in this topic already clearly said, that it is a known issue, that all keyboard shortcuts are turned off.
Do not post again and again the same thing, that is already explained.

Config files don't have names, and are not stored in files. It's all just running config. When you import something from an RSC file, it just reads the file and executes commands that are within.

Yes, you can do that. Maybe the router will be even a little faster, as the LCD takes up some system resources.

We have fixed the macOS self-update issue, but of course, you will only be able to enjoy it after the next release. The fix will still have to be installed manually.

Hm, but I assume that many professionals have Winbox running without closing for days or even weeks. They won't get notified And that is perfectly OK, IMO, if I have many routers connected, as I often do, I don't want to have to reconnect to all of them just because there is a new update. Check on ...

Like it is mentioned in known isssues list, in certain Windows computers, there is a known issue that winbox feels slow and sluggish. It will be addressed.

It's interesting that your error says "Bad volume: /Volumes/WinBox"
Can you check how the DMG has mounted in your system with "ls /Volumes " ?

maisondasilva we have many different type of products, we do not plan to aim for consistency here. There are so many possible menu combinations, that it will just overwhelm the user with useless options that his device does not have.

Kanzler are there any other disk images or volumes mounted when you do the update?
Check finder side menu

Kanzler, is your user account in macOS with full administrative rights?
Open the Console app from /Applications/Utilities, and see if there is any errors, when trying to upgrade. You can delete the new app, downwload an older one, and try the upgrade again.

How frequently does Winbox check for updates? No notification until now.
So basically 24h since release of beta4. My running Winbox instance still does not show update notification on Linux client.

On launch! Relaunch it.

If DMG installer "did not offer" it just means it's a Beta and trusts that user knows how to install apps. Sorry. We will improve in future.

But well Infabo is not the only one, there is at least one other person with a similar issue. We are investigating (as seen in my known issue list)

I have Winbox 4 beta3 installed on my Macbook running Big Sur. I installed the Winbox app on my desktop (from DMG dragged to desktop). I opened Winbox beta3. I see the "Update available" info on right top of window. Infabo, the macOS Apps should be located in the Applications directory, n...

But you can do that - create new workspaces and name them with meaningful names. You can have 10 or 20, doesn't matter. Select the needed one when connecting, or even change to another one while connected.

Edit: OK so you want winbox to remember which workspace you used last

On another note, I would like to be able to save devices together with a workspace like it used to be with sessions in v3. So when connecting to a saved device, it would open the saved workspace automatically. Using <own> for this is not a solution. Why is not <own> the solution? It is exactly the ...

Please stop this nonsense.

new entries are added to the bottom

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.

We found the issue, it is so, like you said. If there is high latency, MAC connection can be broken.

Everyone, please - those things that are listed in "known issues" and are not listed in the changelog, have not been changed. No need to report again.

Update to beta4 on Intel Mac did not finish the same way as with last update (had to manually copy app from /Volumes/WinBox to /Applications).

This works for nearly everyone else, so something must be wrong in those computers, where it fails. Make a support ticket please, so we can investigate

What's new in v4.0beta4:

*) added undo / redo / safe mode
*) added command line launch parameters ( WinBox <connect-to> <addresess> <password>)
*) fix auth via RADIUS on macOS
*) fix opening http url on Windows (for SwOS)
*) improved several icons

Karlis, so Half Life 2 is same as Half Life 1, just with additional bugs? Very weird argument here.

I have one question - how to delete the workspace in Winbox 4? New ones can be created and saved but there does not seem to be a way to delete them...

Like this (button next to workspace name. icon will be changed, current one is a bug)

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.

Will report, thanks

Functionally it is the same. You previously did not save "session" or "workspace" with a name, so it was given the IP as the temporary name. Even in Winbox3 you had to give a name to the "session", but you did not do it, ie. you did not use the sessions correctly. Right...

overall sluggishness

This only affects Windows users running 60Hz and is a known bug in the "Qt" framework, a fix is in the works. macOS and linux should be fast for most people.

Workspace saves arranged menus. Maybe you want a Wireless workspace, with Wireless Registration table open, the Log window, the Wireless scan window. Call it Wireless Debugging and save as a workspace. Then maybe you need a Terminal workspace with 4 terminals.

it is exactly as was in v3

Yeah, sorry, but that is not planned at this stage, Larsa.

Bad link, misunderstanding how apps work.
If we make an Electron app and only publish the windows version, does it mean it's a native app? No.

Native in terms of: compiled to run on Windows OS only. Is that right?

inside the app there are many windows. I believe in all operating systems those are called windows.

No workspaces is definitely not that. Workspace saves arranged menus. Maybe you want a Wireless workspace, with Wireless Registration table open, the Log window, the Wireless scan window. Call it Wireless Debugging and save as a workspace. Then maybe you need a Terminal workspace with 4 terminals.

Very slow interface when moving windows with the mouse - the window does not keep up with the cursor.
The interface is too spacious, as if it were not a network engineer's tool but a dating app.
50 MB instead of 2?
Is this definitely native and not electron on electron under electron?

what OS

Looks like macOS 11 is having crash issues. Upgrade your OS if possible. Will look into it.

It's still a single file though. Put it in a USB flash drive and use it. If needed, you can copy the Winbox directory on the same USB to have your saved routers

Karlis, thanks, Log scrolling is a known issue

50MB is too big in 2024?

Baragon, There are. Use same comment as group

Home users that plug and play (or mobile operator that just gives them a router). and professional installers. We have to make both ...

My mistake, apparently now you do need a license to use Cloud

Some more comments:

1) There is no limit how many free demo installations you can run
2) Why use Demo key? It is for x86 PC only. Where are you installing them? If it's virtual machines, you should be using CHR images, they have a different licensing system and higher limitations on demo

There exist a lot of PoE injectors that are 100mbit capable
You need the Gigabit model https://mikrotik.com/product/RBGPOE

Wouldn't this make your (admin) life even harder? Now you complain about one default password, then you will complain about a requirement to connect via Smartphone app to each and every device and run a wizard

Maybe not obvious, but since most of our devices have a default configuration, all it takes to make them work is plugging in the ISP cable and connecting to the default wireless SSID.

Which a LOT OF PEOPLE DO.

There is no "initial connection" to change password. They never connect to it.

Posting "same here" does not help anyone. We are using SMB ourselves here and there have been no issues at all, so we need a lot of detailed info. Every step, every command that you use to configure SMB in the router. And then every detail about when you connect to it. Also, try the latest...

This does not mean Winbox should be used at all. I still insist, if you use BTH without the app, you are missing the point of BTH.

Well, it is probably not just a Linux issue with these Intel AX cards. Kaldek is running Windows. It is more likely their Intel device firmware (firmware is proprietary binary regardless of OS/platform AFAIK)

I was talking about linux kernel in the mikrotik AP, not the client side.

My answer was about why documentation is more concentrated on using the App, not CLI.

But what is the issue exactly? All you need to do is setup capsman. 1) enable capsman in "remote cap" tab of the CRS 2) in "configuration" tab add one config template, that is all you need. don't enter anything else except SSID name and wireless password (select WPA2 and all cyph...

What packages does the cAP have installed?
The CRS needs no extra packages, capsman functionality is built in

We have noticed that all complaints relating to client connection to mikrotik 802.11ax AP are related with these intel chips. It seems that there is a known bug in the linux kernel, specifically relating to this intel chip. Like I said somewhere else in the forum, we are investigating if we can some...

The biggest benefit of Back to Home is the mobile app. It is super simple to use. If you want to configure wireguard manually, you don't really need BTH anymore. So by using the CLI, you are missing the point

AX devices are controlled by new CAPsMAN, which is located in the WIFI menu, not in the Wireless menu.

WiFi -> Remote CAP -> CAPSMAN

Share Link is only for another phone. You need share Wireguard (TM) config file. You can send this file via whatsapp, yes. In your computer, open this file in Wireguard app.

Post pictures of what is not working for you.
There is no "text document". When you click on Share, it will give you a .conf file

Not if there are passwords or any authentication settings. regular config yes

ISO installer has been available since day one. What is this discussion even about, sorry?

ISO: https://download.mikrotik.com/routeros/ ... .16rc1.iso
IMG: https://download.mikrotik.com/routeros/ ... .16rc1.zip

Included image shows the friend has a read only account.
So reinstall is the only option.

That's right. What is the cloud, if not a network of routers, switches and servers. It's not just servers floating somewhere. You need to connect the infastructure.

I just discovered it. Every section can have such rules banner

I think Splunk is some unrelated software, and Jotne is just posting a tutorial for how to make MikroTik work with it. So I don't think it qualifies

Done.

No need to get agressive, we can always work out something. There are definitely people who will gladly pay for such software, and there is no better place than the MikroTik forum to find them. We just need to separate advertisements from discussions. I hope this solves it.

MikroWizard, please make a clear post in here with decription of what your software does and how much it costs, and what limits there are in the Free tier. I will also move the other mentioned topics into this section:

viewforum.php?f=25

MikroWizard seems like a very interesting software. I'll allow it. I will also make a Forum section with such tools, everyone is free to completely avoid it

P.S: rextended please calm down

I know we have previously asked to avoid spam on the forum, but how about we make a sticky topic with possibility to advertise their product, if it is made specifically for mikrotik devices in some way. The only question is how to avoid "bumping" the topic with repeated ads.
