Not to put a damper on things. But I have had all the support I have needed and haven't had a single box brick since I kept using and put out even more SonicWALL's. Yes they cost more. But for business stuff, it is worth not only my time, but reputation. When I was asking the MT vendors about what t...
I had that same exact problem a couple of years ago for a Justice Center I support and the ISP got my attention by turning off the Internet until they knew I was working on it. The network I setup there has a SonicWALL, going to some managed switches. But for you, it doesn't matter because the proce...
That is good to hear some positive feedback on the 951! Maybe I wont feel like such a freaking beta tester if I decide to buy more MT devices. I get all excited about MT. But when they have all sorts of problems and its hard to see them take ownership of them, its hard to put any real faith in them....
Yeah, we all know about that :) Similarly though, have there been any production problems that we might potentially see with either of the RB751G or the new RB951-2N that will brick a box or make it run quirky and or in-efficiently? Maybe this model is better than that one? Or maybe your maybe your ...
Not to bring up old history, but are they rid of the problems the older 751's had with the xmas lights that bricked the box? (I still have a couple that are yet to be replaced.)
Thanks for your help, worked like a charm. I simply disabled the DHCP Client on the router, added the PPOE client, changed the nat rule from ether1 to the PPPOE interface that was created and all is well. Made sure to use the "PEER DNS" and the "ADD DEFAULT ROUTE". Great Informa...
Those printscreens Pilgrim has on the wiki look really good. I always like looking at other posts because you never know what you're going to learn. While I was looking at other posts in the forum, I stumbled on this guys site again down below. Its the CLI (command line interface) version, but is tw...
Nothing like being thrown in the deep end huh? lol I have just started using the Mikrotik's myself and have found the initial learning curve to be steeper than I thought it would be. I am certified in SonicWALL's and thought this would be a breeze, but found myself having to do alot of testing and r...
I feel your pain kmitchell! and feel the EXACT same way!! I to went from ecstatic to doubtful, to just plain aggravated; and I'm afraid its not over yet. I cringe every time a client calls me that I have installed one of these at because I am expecting the worst now. I was at a client's today where ...
to turn off your wan ping, disable the icmp line on the Firewall side For security, here's where I started with some great vids from a seasoned pro in the Mikrotik community: http://gregsowell.com/?cat=17 Some of his stuff is material for older versions of RouterOS. So I don't delete my initial conf...
It won't happen again huh? That's a 60% failure rate for me! :( Post subject: Another bricked RB751U-2HnD? http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=58320 Post subject: My 2nd bricked RB751U-2HnD out of 4, lots of flashing lights http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=58773 Here...
When we just had started production of this product, a few devices like this were found, we quickly fixed that problem and from then on, this problem will not happen to anyone. I am sorry that you got two of these first units. Please contact the seller for immediate exchange Thank you for your nice...
That sounds interesting. I can't help you on the multiple IPs. But if you search the forums, I remember seeing some good posts on having more than one public IP address. UPDATE: someone just posted asking for help with (4) public IP address, with access to (4) different LANs. It appears that you cou...
I bought a RB750gl, and a new user for mikrotik. i have a adsl connection. and i want to setup it and I have been searching to the right configuration and i failed> :? :? i ask if anyone can provide help??? and i will appreciate his help Thanks From my new, humble experience, unless you have a stat...
Yes, I agree. I know the mod is aggrevated with it. But you don't know aggrevation until you have backed out of 2 different jobs for loyal clients in two weeks time, and was not able to make your time billable either...
Man, talk about bitter/sweet!! Why bitter? Because nothing sucks more than when a new product doesn't work right because of some crappy problem beyond my control with the manufacturering process. Sweet, well, we all know why we are here: the Mikrotik OS is awesome! I am still iearning it, but have c...
Then let me ask this an another way. Do you know the root cause of the problem? You did not answered this. What if I will send back my bricked 751, and after ~ 1 month, I will get an another one with the same defect? We cover the warranty for 1 year as do most other distributors, so yes you would g...
I have the same exact symptoms as the forum member listed below where his RB751U-2HnD bricked on him after very small usuage: http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?t=55429 I just bought (10) RB751U-2HnD units from StreakWave, setup one of them and have been using it since last weekend.
