hAP ax3 antenna report: https://fccid.io/TV7C53-5AXD2AXD/Test-R ... 203601.pdf

all details here: https://fccid.io/TV7C53-5AXD2AXD

Pea

Just advice: rename the topic from 5G to 5GHz. I am also hAP ax3 owner, I also noticed weaker wifi compared to my previous hAP ac2. Probably due to tx-power hard coded lower than regulatory would allow (country Czech). But I never opened this topic because 5G is mobile network standard, so why shoul...

Pea

You can use emojis in SSID, this is fun to have wifi named just

/interface wifi set [find name="wlan1"] configuration.ssid="\F0\9F\A5\B0"

https://observablehq.com/@a2m0/utf2rsc#decodeStart
or
https://r-1.ch/mikrotik-unicode-ssid-generator.php

Pea

Maybe signal drop due to detected radar (DFS)?

Pea

It is offtopic here, but I recommend using https://1.1.1.1/dns-query (Cloudflare).
Because it contains "IP address" it does not need standard DNS for the first connection.

Pea

For the https://family.cloudflare-dns.com/dns-query you should use DigiCert Global Root G2:

is there any problem with rebooting with v7.8 ?

No problems with reboots, my is running many days nonstop already.
Are you using original power supply delivered with your hAP ax³?

Pea

Didn't you read any of posts in this thread? The only way of installing ROSv7 on de-bundled ROSv6 hAP ac2 is netinstall.

I did, but obviously not all :)
Thank you for hint, I will try netinstall tonight...

Pea

What happened? How to upgrade to v7.1?
(this attempt done through Check For Updates from Channel: upgrade)

In 2013 I thought it would be good idea to implement this function.

Pea

Just write it down normally into the generator, no comma necessary. Try my examples for a test.
You can use few emojis within one ssid (up to 32 bytes, one emoji is up to 4 bytes).
U+1FE8 (Ῠ) is not emoji, that's why it is not translated by Android/iOS/Windows10 into emoji picture.

You must change it via terminal, you cannot do it in winbox wireless settings.

Push-button WPS seems secure, but the vulnerability being that anyone with physical access to the AP could push the button and connect, even if they didn't know the Wi-Fi pass.

Recommendation: Do not use insecure WPS and keep it disabled.

Currently you are running current-firmware 3.24.
You should upgrade to upgrade-firmware 6.42.6.

So what about version 6.40.8, is vulnerable or not? Could somebody from Mikrotik finally confirm it? Bugfix release tree Release 6.40.8 2018-04-24 What's new in 6.40.8 (2018-Apr-23 11:34): !) winbox - fixed vulnerability that allowed to gain access to an unsecured router; https://mikrotik.com/downl...

Pea

Yes, last bugfix 6.40.8 is fine (+ change your passwords after upgrading, restore your configuration and inspect it for unknown settings, implement a good firewall)

Did you change all your passwords after update?

You are running vulnerable version, so no surprise that someone can change your settings when they can get all your usernames and passwords.

It will not happen if we could see all open windows within the Winbox as on this simulation:

Pea

This happens when you have several terminals hidden behind other windows. Close some windows and you will find those eight terminals. And close them.

Pea

It's a pity!
But good inspiration to MikroTik for Winbox improvement. Maybe someday

And next would be option to disable/remove Quick Set based on setup on router (e.g. /system routerboard settings quickset=disabled).

Pea

Tell me how to get these window buttons there? I like it! But I do not have it

(I hope this is not a "photoshop" joke)

If the hotel keeps login based on device MAC address:
1) Change your laptop MAC address to your router MAC address
2) Pass the login on your laptop
3) Change the laptop MAC address back to default/original
4) Switch on your router, fill the SSID and enjoy "own network"

No, PoE works in 6.42.1 correctly for me same as with previous versions. Did you try to connect different device?

I am just curious why you want to block ping? Anyway if you insist on it start with simple input icmp drop rule placed somewhere on top. If this works then do fine tuning in more detail. If this does not work then you are actually pinging different device (you modem - as you wrote that your WAN is e...

My experience beyond specifications is to keep the Ethernet cable as short as possible, as isolated as possible

Maximum is really about 100 metres then collision detection mechanisms "break" the link.
Use some repeater in the middle and you should be fine.

Please, note that downgrading to previous RouterOS versions (below 6.41) will not restore "master-port" configuration, so use backups to restore configuration on downgrade.

Hi strods, this happened for the first time that log message about upgrade was missing completely.

You have very likely double NAT.
If you cannot use bridge mode on ISP router then try if setting DMZ is available there.
Or use IPv6 address of your computer for external access.

Do you have your domain DNS/DDNS name registered with your WAN IP address? If yes, then you can do it with NAT. These 3 lines will make your web server accessible from internet and also from LAN by your domain name: /ip firewall filter add action=accept chain=forward comment="Accept dstnat pinh...

The ether5 connector looks perfect, same as others ether1-4. So it seems it is hardware failure.
It is still in warranty, I will contact my dealer to exchange device.

Pea

I use only CAT6 cables.
For test I connected only one computer which negotiates with ether1-4 on 1G but when I move that only cable to ether5 it negotiates on 100M.
From my logic this cannot be caused by cable or connected device. Anyway I tested 3 gigabit devices and few cables with same result.

It should be enough to do reboot and then update.
How much free-memory you have after reboot?
Anyway 8,6MiB visible in your export should be good for update.

Pea

Use this:

dst-address-type=local

Matches destination address if dst-address is assigned to one of router's interfaces.

Pea

Just question:
Why you do not run PPPoE client on Mikrotik and your adsl router in bridge mode?
This should be imho easier and more obvious for setup.
