Re: How to block incoming connections to CCTV cameras on Mikrotik router (RB750GL)

It depends on configuration.

The dafault router configuration denies access to any not allowed port so there is no chance to access CCTV.
If you access cameras via external proxy/server which they send the video stream to then your router is not involved at all so there is no chance to block access.

Re: RB5009 support

...If I remove 2.5G advertisement and it renegotiates down to gig I can get 920M or so ... My rule of thumb when something went wrong: 0. Check power :) 1. Check cables and replace them if needed. 2. If there is still a problem GOTO 1. Beeing serious ... what kind of cable do you use? Is it 2.5GHz ...

Just $0.02 to show what mix of posts had to be moderated and we (moderators) have to decide what is a true post, what is a spam and what is a background for later abuse. If you see very valid and politically correct post "Thank you for sharing this info" then there is always a moment of fr...

Re: Mikrotik test results

it's a little bit like tests of cars which are tested with basic configuration, on a flat road, no passengers with minimal wind, sunny wheather etc.

I don't want my top secret attachments to be seen by every unregistered Bob out there. Well, if this is the case, you should hire a consultant, force him/her/it to sign NDA and show him/her/it your top secret picture in a dark room without backlight switched on.

yes, we do that from time to time.
we can't delete fairly new users, as they might be real people who read forum
Maybe it's time to remove this column from "Memebrs" page? Or hide it to not let indexers read it?
