Currently still running dude 3.6. Upgrading to 6 is on my to do list. I just updated a router to 6.45.9. It appears that I can no longer access that router via routerOS using dude 3.6. I'm fine with that for now being I can still use SNMP. Is there any settings that will make 3.6 able to connect to ...

Ackster

Working with 6.46.4. Looks like when I connect to a Mikrotik device with RouterOS it will use 64 bit counters on the link element and display speeds > 4.2G correctly. However, using SNMPv2c and connecting to an IBM switch it looks like it is still using the 32 bit counters. I can do a walk in the Du...

Does the dude support 10G interfaces via SNMP. I'm trying to build a link between two non routerOS switches. This is a 10G link. Seems like the dude link type is still using 32bit for speed. Also, is there a way to use the ifXEntry SNMP OID for my port polling instead of the old 32 counters? Running...

in system script

Ackster

Thanks for quick response. CLI works great in script giving me issues.

:log info ("start");
:local lala [/tool e-mail status];
:log info ("end >$lala<");

Shows in log end ><

Ackster

Is there a way to check the status of sending a e-mail in a script. The CLI allows /tool e-mail status, but I can't figue out how to assign that to a variable in a script. :local i [/tool e-mail status]; #does not work Also, tried different variations on the above command with no success. Thanks in ...

Ackster

Thanks I'll give them a try

I'm writing a small script that I need to check for the existence of an item in the queue before execute a command. The command I am using is :set vQName [/queue simple get [find name="$xName"] name]; After this command I was going to compare xName to vQName to see if they are equal and br...

Other things have come up, but test router has bee running for over a week. Very basic test, no traffic load on it. Going to try to make some time next week to expand testing.

Ackster

Things were going great, but had a complete fail late last night :( System was running for over 36 hours. When I checked it this morning the router had rebooted. That is not to bad, except it seems the OpenWRT drive got corrupt and went back to factory defaults, losing all my network settings and ev...

Ackster

Not sure about the SQL lite, but give me a another week to work with what I have and I can send you something to try. Just starting to get busy around here with Thanksgiving coming up. Are you looking at using DHCP client on the OpenWRT image or static IP? As I said before, due to space on the 750, ...

Ackster

ROS is stock, haven't tried to remove any packages yet. Being this project is targeted at the home user, I could take a few things out like mesh, radius, MPLS, etc. That would save some more room. The current OPENWRT package is running with 12 MB of memory. I am taking notes as I go along. If this e...

Ackster

Very carefully :) Actually I'm stripping out a bunch of stuff. I'm not using any DHCP, firewall, connection tracking, dropbear, etc. Trying to build a very small very specific image with just PHP and a tiny web browser. I'm still experimenting with it, but seem to have a stable image running for ove...

Ackster

It is VERY touchy. You will have to make your own image and really work with it. I've been messing with it for a few days on a RB751 with a small web server and PHP. I may have finally gotten a stable version. I have been keeping some notes as I worked on it and may try to contribute to the wiki if ...

Ackster

FYI - May be on to something.... When I defined my image using make menuconfig, I selected target images and selected ext4 as my root file system image. I then built my image and dumped it to a RB750 for testing. The image I built has PHP on it also, so I wrote a small PHP script to exercise the sys...

Ackster

WOW - since 2009. I guess there is just a small % of the users that see value in this part of the router. I'll keep plugging away and see what happens.

Thanks

Ackster

How stable is OpenWRT on the MetaRouter. Trying to setup a small OpenWrt image and it seems to be unstable. RB751. Building my own image. Few questions. -Anyone using this in a production system? -Sometime it boots and is missing full directories, if I halt and start it again it comes up. -Does OPKG...

Ackster

Yeah, been figuring a bunch out over the past few days. Got the network stuff taken care of. Had to uninstall dnsmasq. But, still running into flaky issues. seem to get segmentation faults, sometimes it boots missing complete directories. Perl has been a real challenge. But, I'm working my way thoug...

Playing with OPENWRT on RB750. I can get it to load and I can get into the console. I make changes to network and resolv.conf for my network settings. However, seems to be memory only. If I reboot the router or reboot the metarouter then all my changes are gone. What am I missing? This doesn't seem ...

Ackster

I hope so, Are anymore specs available yet? Memory & metarouter support are what I'm looking for. I have BIG plans for this product if I can get it programmed the way I want.

Ackster

Looks like it missed the July newsletter. I'm starting to have my doubts on this product, which is a shame.

Ackster

Any updates on this? We want to roll out a managed router package with our customers and this would be a great router to base it on. BTW - will it handle metearouter?

Ackster

Saw a post on this product early in the year that mentioned April 2011. Is there any updates to its release date?

Thanks

Ackster

Update - I was mistaken on the board. It is a 500 not 400 board. I went ahead and updated to 3.17 last night and for the time being things seem to work.

Thanks

Ackster

RB433 running 3.13. I am runing 3 of these new boards with good results. But on one board I am having problems accessing the internal web server. I can not get the routerboard web screen to come up and I can not get the accounting to work. Almost like the internal server is turned off. This is not a...

Current setup. Tower - Mikrotik 2.9.x acting as PPPoE server Client - Mikrotik 2.9.x acting as PPPoE Client (3 LAN Ports). Server is handing the client a 172.x.x.x address which is then NAT'd before going to the internet. All is good :) Client now wants to add 1 device with a public IP address. But ...

Is 3.3 ready as a production version. Just installed it on a system, because of ethernet drivers. 2.9 would not see the card, but 3.3 does. This will be a gateway router connected to our fiber line. Processor is a AMD Geode NX. Duties will be. 1. NAT 2. Basic Firewall 3. 1-2 VPN Users 4. Bridging of...

Ackster

Count me in on this one. Once the specs are ironed out, I'll be willing to chip in some dollars.

Ackster

Keep seeing this in my log every few minutes. What does it mean?

Ackster

2.9.38. I'll do the upgrade, but don't think I'll see a differance. I've been seeing this problem since the RB532 came out

We have been running Mikrotik as a AP for serveral years now. Up until recently, we have been using PCMCIA cards or just regular B Mini-PCI (NL2511's). All is working well. We want to take advantage of using B/G and upgrade our APs. I have NEVER had success with a B/G card :( We will install the car...

Thinking about trying a PtMP NStreme setup in 2.4 using some SR2 cards. The new CPE boards are making this look feasible. How well does NStreme work in PtMP mode? Seems like the polling will allow me more connections and remove the Hidden Node issuses. Anyone doing this now or have attempted it? Any...

What does this do when checked? Manual doesn't really say much. This is the first time I am using NAT on the Mikrotik, and have been having major problems with AIM and VPN's. I now have AIM running, but had to use the SAME action and check the Not By DST box. It seems to be working now, but I would ...

We have been ruuning mikrotik routers as routers and AP for about 4 years now. Up until now all our incomming lines have been T1's and the old 2600 cisco's were doing our NAT for us. We just got an enternet connection and are using a Mikrotik for that. We move a big block of users over and most are ...

Trying to overclock a 532 to 333. I hacked away at one card until it sticked and that one is now set at 333. I can't get the other card to go to 333. I'll select it and it seems to take, but if I try to keep it it will revert back to slower clock. Any ideas? Also, what are the disadvantages to the o...

Ackster

Is there a list somewhere of compatible fiber cards for Mikrotik? We are only going to be pushing 100mbps max on this line, so gig cards may be over kill.

Thanks

I'm close to giving up :( I'm checking into just going with a alvarion link for the 13 mile shot and maybe using some type of PC solution for the short shot. The short shot, I can put the radio's inside the buildings and just eat the cable loss. Still have not found anything I would trust hanging ou...

I need to do a 3 point PtP link using mikrotik A->B->C A to B will be VERY short <1000' and will use 5.2ghz. B->C will be about 13 miles using 5.8 Ghz. LOS should be excellent with no obstructions for both links. This will start as a half-duplex link and be moved up to a full-duplex if things work o...

I need to get a few of these boards. I just need the bare board no CF, Memory, etc. May need indoor cases also. I'm in the US. New or used as long as they are 100% functional.

Thanks

I knocked the power down on both ends to 17. This seemed to help my radio speed, which now is 24/36 or 36/48. It also seemed to help my CCQ on the client, which is now in the 79-85 range. Odd thing is even though I dropped the transmit power from 26 down to 17, the RX signal on both side only show a...

Ackster

My problem isn't the speed, I expect the lower speeds on the RB112. But with a -59 on both sides why is my CCQ so low and why is the radio not locked into 54 mbps.

As I said we are thinking about using a setup simliar to this in the 5ghz band for a major backhaul, but I'm a bit gun shy now.

Ackster

No 900

Ackster

Speed tests are giving me about 4 meg. Speed on this link is not important. Canopy at the other end can only push 4 meg anyway. My question is more on the line of why can't I get the radio to hold at a solid 54 meg or even 48 meg with a -58 on both sides? The SR2 shows that it needs -74 to do the 54...

This is my first shot at a PtP link. We have several PtMP 802.11 links going. Setup is 2-RB112 with SR2 cards in them. This link is connecting a remote pop with our main pop. I have it setup with exact fit framing and polling turned on. Using a 10mhz channel. The system is reporting a -59 on both en...

I need to vent about 2.9 and figure out if anyone else out there is having the same problems. We have been using the system since 2.6 days on varying types of hardware and it has been rock solid. We use it for bandwidth management/firewall/wireless AP/PPPoE server. We have used it on RB200's/Old PC'...

We have two of the RB200 series running AP's using 2.18.x, these systems have been rock solid for over 2 years. We then went to a new tower and got a RB500 with a SR2 and version 2.19.x This system has never run correctly, we just get flaky errors. Lots of client disconnects, lots of DeAUTH messages...

I have a routerboard that is showing some VERY high temps. The LM87 temp is now at 429496728.9. This is the second time I have seen this. A reboot will clear it up. The router seems to be running just fine, but I am concerned. Is this a sign that the router is on its way out?

Anyone else having problems with the scheduler? I am trying to run 3 jobs. 2 are done once a day and the last one is done every 2 minutes.

It seems like the jobs are only being run if I'm in Winbox. Once I exit it seems like the scheduler stops running.

Anyone else seeing this?

Is there any way to automatically use bursting with PPPoE? We are using the internal database to store our PPPoE users. I see a standard simple QUEUE is created for every PPPoE user. Also, It appears that once a user is logged in I can manually go into the Queue and add the bursting parameters. But,...
