MikroTik

Does we have GPS sync in Mikrotik, that is what I talking about, I know the benefit, but we don’t have it! No and we will not get it. You only get it using a product where it is implemented. I need it, so I bought it. An this is the way i´m walking now. I buyed for testing: UBNT, Ligowave, Mimosa, ...

Mikrotik doesnt interest in this Feature. This is The hard truth. We will Never See: GPS NV2 with selectable Rates like 75/25 802.11ad And much more, because Wireless is not longer Main Focus for Mikrotik Products. We have seen it The Last years, Why SXT ac releases more then 3 years before Omnitik...

So another one: Had to change a wireless setting on an OmnitikAC running 6.40.4 with nv2. Interface goes into radar detect and finds radar on every single frequency in 5GHz. (Guess what. There is no radar). Upgrade to 6.40.6 does not help. Downgrade to the latest SW without radar detect = not allow...

Now I have some problems with SFP+ 10G Ethernet module. Here, you haven't mentioned, what kind of problem you have, but please, take into account, that according to SFP module compatibility table you can only use a maximum of 14 S+RJ10 modules because of the power controller of the switch (as each ...

Thanks. I have it running now. There was a bug in the beta's. After an upgrade it works. Now I have some problems with SFP+ 10G Ethernet module. I wait for a few rcs more until playing again ...

Hello! If you bring out a version that *bricks* hardware you must consider that it will not happen. maybe a special intermediate version to repair version rc20-24.

Nstreme plus, any hints?

I'm about to update a couple of test units...

We have some remaining sites with MT wireless. Forced to replace them by customer demands. Would love to do a SW upgrade to keep them running.

@MT could you please describe what nstreme plus will do better ?

Ordered 2x HEX as I saw they can run on those. Only for small networks. Was not stable for us.

Only for small networks. Was not stable for us. Rb1100AHX4 is the device to run the Dude.

Come on, just make The Dude for mipsbe.

There is a special device for The Dude. Why not just use it before asking MT to do porting work.

In Mikrotik Wireless device like SXT 5ac can we run OSPF ?

Of course it's normal ROS.

Hi, So basicly I have bought an unfinished product !! Would the CCR1016-12S-1S+ do the trick, or should I turn my head towards Cisco ME34xx series ? Again, we want to make use to a leased black fiber, and distribute this capasity to customers through fiberlinks. That is why we consider the HeX PoE ...

CRS-317 is a test system. Dont use it now. I test with 2 of them in office and run into different problems with rc firmware (you have to use rc at this point which means beta). I see lockouts which vanish after an upgrade between rc's. I see not reachability which vanishes after a reboot. I see stat...

We are on 6.37.5. Runs very stable on ccr8g2s+. Bgp + Ospf some filtering no queues. Full routing table.

SFP+RJ10 still reports up/down link state without a cable connected.

Hello, scrolling through my RB1100AHX4 controller I found that one on the incoming interface: https://preview.ibb.co/gdhDrm/TX.png The ethernet interface on which the VLAN is sitting has no drops at all. How can I debug those drops? How can I check what packets get dropped? Flowcontrol enabled?

It happens every single time the router reboots. And due to a watchdog and other issues on this segment for some reason that seems to happen every day or two. So, each time I have to enable and re-enable for MPLS to function properly. BIG Issue.

Please send supout to Mikrotik support.

So does this not happen to any one else, or do you just not realize that it is happening? For the life of me I can't figure out why MPLS routes become different than the same routers IP route list after that router reboots. I have to stop and start MPLS for the MPLS table to get corrected.... I hav...

Got them today. Plugged into a CRS317-1G-16S+.
What a shame. Shows link without a cable plugged in and lights go on and off. Auto Negotiation shows done/10Gbps. TX Counters increase. Seems to be a wireless card.

I want to do VLAN Tagging on smaller Boxes like the PowerBox Pro.

Hi, We are running a CCR1072 as our core router (v6.41), with 3 IPsec site-to-site connections (SHA1/AES-CBC-128, should be HW accelerated). On the remote end there are CCR1036 routers. What I noticed is with a very low average CPU utilization (1-2%), the IPsec tunnels are maxed out at around 200Mb...

I think we can safely assume that v7 is some way off, with Mikrotik staying tight lipped on a release date. Indicating that they themselves have no idea of when it is going to be released. We are getting to the stage where we are outgrowing our Cloud Core routers, yet we’re only doing 10-100Mb of t...

Ignitnet 60 ghz solutions have the 5 GHz for backup I hope that MIkortik in near future develope a similar solution

And a triple frequency Base station.

Hello! They are now available in some onlineshops like meconet.de and mikrotik-store.eu.

Thanks. Ordered a bunch.

Normis the antenna beamforming is only in the horizontal plane or also in the vertical plane?

Is it real beamforming or beamsteering? Would be great to get some background info of the mechanisms behind.

Our distributor postpones delivery repeatedly. Are these SFPs available?

Do not buy the products on amazon at all. One thing I have seen is that they do not have any warranty (officially 30 days). Only buy directly from official distributors. Amazon even has plenty of fake products for some reason. Very hard to battle against that. Only buying directly from these compan...

Hi all, I am new to mikrotik and has just recently took over network administrator position. I would like to know if we backup RB1100AHx2 with current firmware 3.10.

Hi, totally agree there are very few user interface information fir those who use it in professional basis, but enough for dummies. I believe MikroTik will release more tweaks for this band, it is not necessary to mess with band this way. Channel width is about 2 GHz, which wastes band, and capacit...

I wouldn't use the 317 Series in Production anyhow at the moment. supouts can't be saved persistantly, so in the case of semi-crashes, where you can recover via console, the supout is gone after the reboot. So you never get to download the darn thing. So far I've seen 4 Switches randomly crash loos...

If you have lot of clients pointing in one direction then the only solution is to use different wireless frequency. I guess us moving into Mimosa was th...

Ok, So I have had an actual email discussion with an actual Mikrotik agent. Here is his answer: Hello, You can look up in Internet how all the frequency re-use plan works.

Further to stop using CCRs in it's entirety (PSU issues, BGP issues), we too, are seriously considering alternatives (Cambium / Mimosa) to Mikrotik on the wireless side. Mikrotik's loosing traction fast. Unless v7 is a magic bullet that gets released, very, very soon... I see tough times ahead for ...

1.1 km? The device is advertised for 100 meters. You should wait for LHG 60G instead.

And 1.1km with 60Ghz would be to much. This is like shooting 5GHz through trees. You need luck and good weather. This is due to physics and no 60Ghz gear I know gives good/reliable results at this distance.

Apologies if I wrap you/me up with words. I have a similar setup that works really well doing this. Create your “main” bridge and add your vlans onto it with relevant tagging etc. Add the ethernet interfaces to the bridge you want to be trunk ports. Create a second bridge, make one of your vlans a ...

Not to worry, I figured it out! :) For anyone reading in the future, you have to add the bridge itself as a tagged interface in the VLAN. eg: /interface bridge vlan add bridge=bridge1 tagged=bridge1,sfpplus1,sfpplus2,sfpplus16 vlan-ids=24 ^^^^^^^ here Chris Are you able to reach CRS317 from an acce...

I cant even manage to make a simple switch config with 2 trunkports and some accessports in different vlans. It works but I can access the switch only from tagged ports. I cant access it from a untagged port. Mikrotik Support cant help. I see cdp-packets of switch on untagged ports but no mac-ping/i...

Runs stable and fast on 1100ahx4 dude for us.

Just did 2 bridges on CRS317-1G-16S+. One bridges shows HW-Offload on all ports. The other does not. Moving a port from one bridge to the other changes it's HW-Offload status. So only one bridge can do HW-Offload? ROS 6.41.rc52.

Did a throughput test port1/port2. Could push nearly 1GBit/s udp traffic FDX to port1 and another to port2. Would not work with switch between. So Winbox is correct. There is no switch.

@mikrotik So is there no switch in normal 1100ahx4 ? Guess not as I see the switch groups blinking groupwise at startup. You can see a photo. https://img.routerboard.com/mimg/1346_l.jpg There are three switch chips with a transformers, there are no disk interfaces only. This CPU have too few RGMII ...

@Mikrotik Could you please add a block diagram for RB11AHx4 (non Dude Edition). I guess the Bandwidth numbers are different, too. This is a great device as it has a wide temperature range. It uses low power (I see <10W poe-powered). It has no fan (which are the first parts failing). It has all power...

@mikrotik I have 1100ahx4 Dude Edition and now got normal 1100ahx4. With Dude Edition I see 3 integrated switches. With normal Edition Winbox does not show the switch menu (6.38.4 and 6.40.5). routerboard.com does not have a block diagram for these devices. So is there no switch in normal 1100ahx4 ?...

Hello, I just got an RB1100AHx4 (NOT the Dude edition) and I see there are fan grilles in the case and a 2-pin header. Since I will be running the router overclocked and on a mountain, I wonder if I can install a 3-pin 5V 4x4x2cm fan in the case. I am thinking about this one: http://noctua.at/en/nf...

You might want to state what kind of operating temperature range you're seeing and expecting to see. These depends on weather conditions. Towerboxes are outdoor grey/white but may see direct sun light. We do not see above 38 Degrees C outdoor temperature and not below -20 Degree. So may be inside t...

@ste
you are sure the mikrotik works on GPS Sync?
Are the wishes or facts?

You misunderstood my post.

This causes a short outage for these devices. The dude ping probe generates a lot of messages but: It does report ping outages of devices all...

Hi all, what do you expect? Follow the forums and see that this problem is no news at all. MT does not comment these posts. So do you expect MT to say "our priority is elsewhere go and find a better solution" ? Do you want to be a WISP without gps sync in 2018? Do you know your business? M...

Ethernet over power will never be brilliant. It serves a purpose and that purpose is when you want better than wifi but can't run a real cable. It doesn't matter how you package it up. This depends in how much effort you put into the installation (same as with wifi at home). Most people just plug i...

ste, enabled wireless,debug logging and check the logs. Wireless station will always try to connect to the strongest signal AP unless you have some specific Connect-list rules. Also note that we have station-roaming setting in newer versions. Yes. I see it tries to connect to the strongest 2 APs bu...

A wireless CPE still consideres only the strongest 2 APs with the same SSID for connection. This changed after 6.35.4. So if I block a CPE with access-list to connect to 2 APs it does not connect to the third. Not mentioned in the change log so I guess this is a bug.

We did an upgrade to the actual bug fix only 6.38.7 on our PPPOE Server and run into problems. Customers get bad/flake/no connections. They are pingable but I guess some MTU related stuff kills them.

hexPoE is the successor of 750up. If feeded with 48V it does passive 802.11at. If feeded with 24V it powers 24V devices (Mikrotik/UBNT/Ignite). As it is able to switch port1-5 it is great to feed a cluster of 4 AP'S with Gigabit speed. There is a outdoor-version with housing announced.

Great news! Switching through poe-in port gives us high packet rate up the tower without killing the cpu.

You can check that by setting the "all ports switched" checkmark in the switch chip config and see if it sticks.
On some router models it does, on most it doesn't.

I could if I get my hands on one ...

Performance Data of OmniTik AC PoE are max 2GBit/s. So I guess there is a switch chip for port 2-5 ?
Is it possible to include port 1 into the switch chip? What switch chip is built into it?

Normis informed us, that Mikrotik ist investing the implementation von 802.11ad cards to Mikrotik since 2013. Nothing changed since this. I am a constumer since 1997, our whole WISP system and our whole data center is using Mikrotik Hardware. But If Mikrotik will not change something in inplementin...

Winbox->Dude->Notification->Command: editable but Apply/Ok does not save changes.

Note that you can still use Winbox in the Dude, by simply adding it as a custom tool: %HOMEPATH%\Desktop\winbox.exe doesn't work (Windows 10) in Tools, works in File Explorer. Ordinary users can place files only inside of their windows profile and each profile has its own path based on username. Sh...

Got a ping outage of a device. Right clicked on the device and selected Ack. The device gets blue on map. But the service is still in state outage (red flag). The dude flag in taskbar is blue.
6.38rc51 on hex.

Feature request:

We have customers powering their device only at times they want to go online.
I would like:
- to see last time the device was online (to see if it is used at all).
- schedule an update in dude when he is able to connect this devices

Device->General Router OS Status: "connect failed ... next attempt at: <time>"
shows a time 1 hour before actual time. The Hex the dude runs on shows correct time.
Version: 6.38.rc51

As the old dude ran into problems we migrated to the new dude on hex with a 2GB SD Card.
Runs smooth so far.

1166 Devices, 437 Service items, Polling interval 5min cpu 20-40%.

Ok. Thanks for the info. Try to get PSUs from the distrubutor and one on stock for the other CCRs out there.

@Mikrotik did you change the newer PSUs for longer life. CCRs are the heart of our network so ...

Today another CCR 1036-12G-4S died. The first 2 had warm environments and died after 1,5 years. This had good conditions and run 3 years.
We have 1100AHx2 running forever in bad conditions. Seems CCR is not as robust?

thanks for the reply.. From what I can see what you suggest would be kicking a client of if its signal is poor? is this the best way to achieve what I am doing? Is there no seamless layer 2 handover configuration using WDS / MESH or Bridging which would be better? Thanks for any advice The best way...

Isn't there problem with precision level? Yes. NTP is in no way sufficient to do a timing needed for syncing wireless systems. Syncing off of NTP is just not reliable. A good GPS timing solution can cost several throusand of dollars (and you may need something for both ends). The method Mikrotik us...

But....which basic settings for nstreme in ac environment ??

I've tried nstreme on a pair of QRT5ac P-P (bridge--stationbridge) but throughput is about an half than NV2 .....where I'm wrong ??

Do you refer to nstreme-dual ?

Never had luck with nstreme on .ac devices.

On ubnt forum, an user post tests with these horns. The results where better than ubnt antennas. The horns have different (round) antennapatterns. So if they are better depends on how your cpes are distributed. The ubnt ac antennas have very small vertical patterns. You have to align them very exac...

I tested the new Dude on CCR and had used memory of 250MB. Any chance to run this on hex device ? I don't see if this are caches or real used memory.
Hex has 256MB.

Isn't there problem with precision level?

Yes. NTP is in no way sufficient to do a timing needed for syncing wireless systems.

@ste That's my feeling towards Mikrotik; They don't spend too much time/resources on wifi since they aim at a low-medium segment WISP market. Like in Asia, Africa and the South America's. On the more heavier used and higher profiled Europe and North America together with the Far East (China, Taiwan...

@WirelessRudy I don't believe Mimosa will do it on the long run. They don't fulfill their promises for long now. Where is their sector, where is TDMA, where is mumimo, where is gps sync in ptmp ?

The AP selection mechanism has changed. All our APs have the same SSID. We direct the CPEs to APs using Accesslists. So all CPEs are forbidden by default and only allowed on one sector we want them to connect. With new wireless package not all available APs are tested. The cpe tries only to connect ...

CCR microSD slot performance is not to great, at least per our tests it is not good enough for The Dude server storage. I would try again with some high speed usb3.0 flash or drive.

Changes for builds up to v6.38rc19: *) Added - AES encryption method for snmp v3 *) Added - Dude configuration interface in Winbox (Requires latest Winbox version 3.7) *) Added - Dude configuration interface in Webfig ** Maps are view-able in web mode. *) Agents - Now any RouterOS device can be use...

Well, I know one thing for sure. Mikrotik will have a surprise for us. The new 6.37 has super fast wireless. With only 2 chains I can put 1 connection tcp at 300Mbps. Udp is over 400Mbps. This is a four-mile link. Nice work mikrotik.

Which routerboard? nstreme or nv2? Did you test ptmp?

This thread talks on nv2 on 11n singlepol. To be honest this is not where we are heading to. We are in 2016 and try to get stable 100MBit. We do this with dualpol 11ac and with vdsl/vectoring. NV2 is still not capable doing this with ptmp. - NV2 N 1x1 (single polarity) is good for an easy 150meg/15...

Welp I guess I need to buy Ubiquiti radios as they do support TPC haha... Have they given a reason as to why they dont support TPC? Do I need to enter the antenna gain even if im using a model that has an integrated antenna eg. SXT series? You have to enter the antenna gain. As a lot of users ignor...

MT is not willing to do ATPC so you have to use the lower power. Just enter your antenna gain and ROS does calculate this for you.

At least you need the possibility to block channels. Esp. the channels with 5 minutes channel check at the start or channels where you know they are unusable. Most Vendors have problems implementing dfs as they are not good in handling the channel scan and recognition of radar patterns. I agree wit...

In my opinion there must be a way to configure a channel-list in order of preference when using DFS. Be careful, DFS is mandated by regulations and personal opinions on how it should work are not relevant when the regulations tell otherwise... I'm not sure that channel lists are even allowed when h...

As MT now apperently try to be more compliant ... where is ATPC? The main competition does it now. It is a valuable feature with micro cells as it is a very good idea to turn down TX-Power on CPEs which are very close to the AP. Not doing ATPC we have to turn down power to 27db EIRP in 5.5 and 24 in...

If this is a config or installation problem you might showcase an installation which scales and give advice how to install a pt...

This depend on speed that your CPE need. ITs possible to do 1000 CPE - but speed goes down. VPLS/EoMPLS dont have annyting to do with "speed" other thant make the l2 network you would probably use without MPLS goes faster and more smooth. MPLS is just a way to implement routing and layer ...

This would be an excellent product.

You would clean up from the fibre and cable companies in high density urban deployments. Virtually no interference and an AP every ~500m.

Yes. This is a good frequency for microcells. CPE Mounting is more complicated as it does not forgive misalignment.

@ krisjanis Is there a way to move partial data from one instance of the Dude to another? We would like to stay with backhaul monitoring at our old windows based system and move the handling of the CPEs to a second dude/chr (to do updates). May be later we want to reintegrate this. So we would like ...

Try to lower TDMA period size to default value of 2ms. Regards, M. TDMA period size of 2ms is totally correct - it works Also - what I have found helps throughput is to also do the following: Set "Hw Retries" on clients and APs to --> 3 (edit - do this on APs and also all clients) Set you...

Your ptmp numbers are ok but not good. With this signals >100MBit/s should be doable. Under ideal conditions >130MBit/s should be seen.

Ok, that's nice! How 'deep' is your network, seen from AC? Xms-tree alike, 2 levels, 3, 4? How is you QoS made? At the AC only? Or also at AP and/or CPE level? Reasons for asking is that we have a full MT network, up to 7 levels deep. Most of the AP's won't see no more than 60Mb aggregated client t...

And where are you now? Still with MT? Still performing? Hello! Yes, we are still going strong, all works to satisfaction.

So, is the flow control a good thing or not? I've found this negative old article: http://virtualthreads.blogspot.sk/2006/02/beware-ethernet-flow-control.html What do you think? It depends.

We use powerdns which runs great for years. 2x recursive 2x authorative. Linux virtual using vmware. We selected powerdns due to its mysql integration which makes it easy to sync dns data from our customer database into the authorative servers.

You may be right. Any other explanation for the bandwidth reduction in multi-hop setups? I guess: Packet aggregation in NV2 which disturbs the ack mechanism of tcp. The acks might come at fast changing rates and cause hickups. We see this problems a long time now (getting better with newer ROS rele...

This is what the tcp sliding window mechanism is for. You mean this is exactly the mechanism that causes data slow down: For the highest possible throughput, it is important that the transmitter is not forced to stop sending by the sliding window protocol earlier than one round-trip delay time (RTT...

The degradation happens because of the store and forward process on each element in the chain. To pass 2 intermediate stations, your data packet will have to be received, queued, dequeued and sent 4 additional times (if your B and C nodes consist of 2 access points linked together by ethernet). So,...

This here is where mikrotik falls into tho, if you like the simplicity of ubnt, then go for it. If you want the security and modding with sophisticated VLANS, routing protocols and much more, then go for Mikrotik. Or combine both. There is not only simplicity in the UBNT AC gear. They introduced RF...

most of Mikrotik units become to be outdoor and they finally started they new unit LHG but till now MikroTik did not offer indoor reset button for outdoor units. I think it is not that big deal but will solve a lot problem in case you forget password. or when you deal with new client like to run hi...

First, signal is worse, second, speed is half. Sa...

Well, if they are not, we all might be better start looking for replacement. The wifi industry is ever advancing, if they don't move in not too long they will loose the wifi market. Which would be a pity. I'll guess we should just keep on complaining and hopefully they hear us. The more complaints,...

Spectral scan is usefull and we need it but I think the priority are: 1) sync 2) NV3 without this features it's hard to stay on the matket. I hope to ear soon news from mikrotik guys Priority no. 1: Spectral scan / history on ac units. no. 2: Spectral scan / history in background for ANY wireless u...

WPA will not affect performance, but you will have to tell your users the password. Hotspot allows to accept trial users even without them knowing any passwords. But of course WPA2 is much safer i've been doing some tests & i figured out that with both wireless interfaces enabled with the same ...

The 2011 had big problems for months from start. Suddenly the switch did not work correctly. We had big issues. So is life with MT and UBNT. You have to wait and read forum. Never use new HW on live network. You still can buy 2011 and 850gx which work great and reliable.

Why not ? They do not "see" each other. Client @ 5GHz will see one and these @ 2.4 GHz will see the second interface. You can have same name on any interface to use "roaming" function .. when the client losts access to one AP then the device looks for other AP with same name. Of...

Was hoping to go even cheaper... Really just want something to test dude on... But that was on my list.
