Re: One ISP, 2 public static IP, 2 places, how tunnel over ISP, not over IP?

Ok, i did that.
And routers were visible for each other, i could poing them, create eoip link.
But this eoip link based on local addresses 10.x
was slower than eoip link based on public static ips.

On local copying files from nas was about 18MB/s
on public ips 22MB/s

why?
Anyway still slow.

Re: Feature request for v7.x

Please add some type of device / tracking protection.
That when thief will steal it, it will have some code with ability to track, even after hard reset or with remote code activation,
to work in the way as apple icloud lock - unusable without code.

Re: Extend wireless to lan with map lite?

it was in pseudo bridge but its ok cause its only one pc behind.

The problem was coincidental - someone in network set his pc ip address on the same i wanted to get, so AP gave me another. Tried different and all works.

Re: Reformatting device?

When I originally read about protected RouterBOOT, I understood reformat-hold-button as something that will make it time consuming, for someone who steals the device, to make it operable. If you needed to hold the button for exact time (+- second or two), it would take you awful lot of time before ...

Re: Reformatting device?

Why everyone is ignoring this? There is nothing about holding button for longer period... It strictly says device will not be recoverable. It looks like we were right to ignore that. This red text didn't say "if held for any time longer than the set period, device will explode with the force o...

Thanks for the correction, the wiki page has been updated to: As an emergency recovery option, it is possible to reset everything by pressing the button at power-on for longer than reformat-hold-button time. Even if reformat-hold-button time is forgotten, holding the reset button for more than 300s...

Re: Reformatting device?

I take that to mean that if you set the "hold-the-button" period to be longer than the default that you'll need to remember to hold it at least that long... So 301 seconds should be enough for a guaranteed "long-enough" period... Not sure if holding it too long doesn't work thou...

ummm - the universe doesn't end whenever max seconds goes by - that's just the most it will allow you to set the value to... so you should still be able to hold the button for 301 seconds.... Thanks, but this is still talk about how long to hold the button. But http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:...
