Re: installation of system-7.18.2 failed: disk is too small

Probably free space more than 134217727 bit cause variable overflow.

On your spare time, can you try again the passage from 7.18 to 7.18.[1|2] leaving on purpose free space less of 134217727???

On that devices are expected only 128MiB........

Just for fun and curiosity...........

Re: Repeater config shared please?

Before continuing, please note that NEW AC or AX drivers DO NOT SUPPORT any modes other than AP and simple client,
instead all old drivers support all legacy 4-MAC modes, like station-bridge, etc.

Re: PPPOE MTU ALWAYS DEFAULTS TO 1480 INSTEAD OF 1492

Since all the internet, or at least 90% (ahem... :wink:) transmits with MTU at 1500, you will never have problems with MTU at 1480/1492 in PPPoE because in this regard I think that nobody connects via PPPoE to a host hosted on a cloud... The PPPoE MTU is more related to those who play at home with R...

Re: no LTS for current mikrotik hardware - will that change?

If you want an official answer, write to support@mikrotik.com and see if they give more importance to the latest arrival (sarcastic),
than those who have been asking for years to make 7.something an LTS................
I recommend 7.16.2, for now....

Re: Bug when executing script that contains :return statement from scheduler

But as I wrote before, just put the correct command in the scheduler instead of just the name of the script:
/system script run myscriptname

Re: Bug when executing script that contains :return statement from scheduler

More fast than my copy & paste....
:local thisscript do={
    :log info "PRE-RETURN"
    :return   ""
    :log info "NOT-EXECUTED"
}

$thisscript

Re: Bug when executing script that contains :return statement from scheduler

/system script run p
Inside the scheduler, and work as you expected....

:return is for go outside one function, not for stop the script, is a misuse, where is on the docs?

Re: Bug when executing script that contains :return statement from scheduler

I was unable to replicate the error. Based on what you wrote, and guessing everything else... The error is... You omit "/system script run" in front of "p". Is not just "p" but the full path must be specified: /system script run p Detailed: What is p ? Is a shortcut fo...

Re: Bug when executing script that contains :return statement from scheduler

is better "/system scheduler export" and "/system script export" that one print for readability & debug and also for see how the script is invoked but what's the point of a :return "" outside a loop that returns nothing to nothing? also this is a correct script, but...
