Its it stuck @18.1MB? I use these devices at a site and the traffic seems to be stuck and does not change

It seemed to stay right between 17 and 18 M.

I hit align on the transmitter side. Connection dropped. When I turned off align... unit reconnected. 18 M is gone.

I have a 60GHZ link from the barn to an out building. Two Mikrotik wAP 60Gs configured as bridge and station. Link is solid and SpeedTest max out the ISP..

gotsprings

2.18

All traffic just stops for about 5 minutes.

gotsprings

So there is an existing router that has to stay.

I connected it to my Mikrotik and set up a route from the Tiks Subnet to the Existing router's subnet.

I need a nat rule to masquarade to get from my subnet to that one.

How could I bring its broadcast over to this subnet???

gotsprings

I guess you need to update your support ticket as well.

I messaged them last month about it... Nothing.

gotsprings

Another month... Another lockup.

gotsprings

Man when Mikrotik decides to ignore a faulty firmware... They really take it to the limit.

gotsprings

Is there an error message in the log that accommodates the error on the device?

gotsprings

I have actually had a working caps-man system with the new AX stuff. When I tried to get AC going... Problems of plenty

gotsprings

Why not use SXT AC units?

Because the barn has a wAP 60G AP so it can serve MULTIPLE antennas that are all less than 500 Meters away.

60GHZ doesn't interfere with the Client Serving Access Points at the other buildings.

On Cube PRO devices data is gathered during beamforming events, if there hasn't been beamforming event - it will use less reliable data for calculation, this is less reliable distance assumption that was used for older (wAP,LHG, nRAY series) Any thoughts on the phy rate dropping down and then going...

gotsprings

I don't think anything has moved.

The Transmitter (wAP 60G AP) always shows the connection BACK as 2.3.

But every time I log in the receiver at the cabin (Cube 60Pro ac), shows 380 until I hit align.

gotsprings

Bringing this one back up. If I go into the Sender and Hit Align after about 20 seconds the link at the far end shows 2.3Gig again. Do I need to set up a script to run the align tool at a regular interval? Or Did I miss something in the setup? Screenshot 2025-03-19 08.02.20.png Screenshot 2025-03-19...

gotsprings

Just had another report of the 2.19rc6 firmware locking up for 5 minutes again.

Any chance this ever gets fixed?

gotsprings

Support verified the issue.

There is a firmware patch in the works.

The RC they sent me extended the amount of time between these lock ups. But they are still there.

Locked up on me yesterday and I reached out to support... heard nothing yet.

2.19 rc6

gotsprings

I have the exact same problem.

I got a beta firmware that makes the glitch take longer.

I contacted support and they sent it to me.

gotsprings

You might want to give v7.18RC1 a try.

I would have to move the caps-controller off my router. Not that big a deal but I would need to rebuild on a router and make it a controller only.

Mikrotik's recommends turning off fast transition and wifi 6.

Probably gonna end up in the box for a few firmware updates.

Nope... I have 6 different WiFi vendors set up with the same settings. I swap between them all the time.

gotsprings

I actually did move the wAP and it worked just fine with a different CAPsMAN instance even without resetting .

I didn't want to reset because eventually my old router will be put back.

When your old router comes back... it still has the config for the caps. That's the point.

Next issue would be that Zerotier changed their pricing dramatically and will probably cancel my account when renewal comes up. I am on the old price schedule. They contact...

Anav,

Could you copy paste me a config file that works on a MAC?

Like I typed... I can't even get an imported tunnel to work.

gotsprings

Must have missed it.

I don't have/use discord.

I appreciate the offer thou.

I was trying to get Wireguard to work on his MAC and that didn't work either.

He has Windows on that computer and Wireguard works fine.

Exported his tunnels to the MAC side... And they don't work.

Was away from the keyboard.

What's that mean?

You kill me, do not use crutches LOL. Do you or do you not have a public IP at the MT router or at least can forward a port from the ISP router.

Anyone using iOS devices with Mikrotik Wireguard successfully?

Terrible news. It was a nice looking structure. Why did it start burning? Did you find out? The fire actually happened before I got the PtP link up.

Log into the wireless wire and go to bridge and turn off RTSP. Might be blocking.

I think it would be nice to have some kind of roadmap, including Wi-Fi 7.

Looking at anav...

"This one's got a purty little mouth."

There is a coverage issue off to the right in the midway. The idea was move the AP off the DJ booth down to Grill. Would need to link back to the tower... Ergo PtMP.

gotsprings

Jaclaz and llamajaja

The sender may need to be multipoint at some point.

Ergo... No wireless wire.

The 5GHZ radio on the cube pro would not be needed at this distance and I am trying to clean up the 5Ghz airspace. Not add more things.

Follow up pics.

As I stated before...
I connect 2 CRS328-24P+4S-RM with a DAC cable.

Is Mikrotik recalling these clearly defective products from distributors? When will these be safe to purchase?

gotsprings

It is not in the spec nor block diagram so I would conclude there is no beeper.

Shoot... the hEX does... So I was "hoping".

gotsprings

I have a PowerBox Pro that is getting disconnected when a breaker trips on the other side of a PtP link. I was wondering if the unit has a beeper in it.

If so I was thinking of using a net watch to make an audible cue to the problem.

I dont know whether to be humbled or amused LOL.

If you are saying I have uncanny powers to spot useless posts, then I am humbled.
If you are saying, I have a unique propensity to dish out vacuous posts, then I am amused.

The reason its complete BS... it worked despite the documentation.

I had a Cambium XE3-4 for over a year now.

It's 2x2 2.4

The 6 GHZ channel is software definable to the higher end of 5Ghz or 6Ghz.

In the time I have had it... I have seen very few devices actually use the 6Ghz. So I configured it to run as 5.8.

I like Zerotier for connecting and reaching back into systems. But and this is a big one...

Larsa

Where is the server that these links connect to?

gotsprings

Larsa,

Certainly.

I described what I am using Big Leaf for.

I asked if Zerotier could do that, so I could stop paying a couple hundred bucks a month per site.

gotsprings

We bought 8 of these switches and had the same issue on one of them. We RMA it and the replacement did not have this problem with identical config. I'd contact support in the first instance.

When is this going to be fixed?

gotsprings

Larsa...

So, it can't.

gotsprings

ZeroTier supports all of that, like most other SD-WANs do. Performance-wise, it all depends on the platform. There's not much any other SD-WAN solution can do about it, be it Bigleaf or others.. Because I am stupid... Explain this too me. Right now... I have 3 ISPs connected to the service I am pay...

gotsprings

Larsa has completely skipped over the multiple ISP thing. Zerotier uses UDP hole punching. The system makes IP connections via the best route it can. Once the service knows where it's clients are... It makes connections from IP to IP then encrypts traffic between. If you set up bridging... Zerotier ...

I have had my router to router wireguard connection stop working.

Simple fix was to send pings across the link every so often. Hasn't dropped in months.

Then the next question is... "What's the actual limit of the hardware? How much PSU can we attach to this thing and not blow it up?" I asked Cambium to try some other access points on the RB5009UP. The problem didn't follow. So it looks like a compatibility issue. That means we need to con...

So you can set the PSU1 to a higher power? Its not locked on 1. Just making sure

You have still not replied to our last question in the mentioned support ticket.

Ok thanks for the tips. I should have bought the ax3 then... :/

For the record... I did not recommend that.

I recommend typical best practices. Place wired access points where you need coverage.

gotsprings

AX2 antennas are pretty small.

If you are having a range issue... Abandon all hope.

Start putting wires around your place to where you need coverage. Then start putting Access Points there.

I am legitimately concerned about this product. It shares the same processor as the CRS354s that have had issues with ports malfunctioning for 4 years. Normis will pop up in the thread and ASK US "IF" the most recent routerOS addresses the issues. This is absolutely absurd! It's a reminder...

So if the port forward request comes in on ANY WAN interface you want it to go back out that connection?

You will need to mark and track the connections for that. That used to be mangle but now its routing table.
