Hi,
It now seems that quickset is broken.
Just got a 751G-2HnD & have upgraded to the latest OS ver.
When I change the Frequency in AP mode via quickset wireless stops working even if I reboot.
It won’t start again even if I set it back to the original frequency. I have also set my country. It worked out the box & works if I reset but stops as soon as I change the frequency.
In wireless table it no longer shows an ‘r’ after changeing frequency.
What am I missing plz?
Thanx
Paul
OK,
After more playing around & wondering why I am getting different results after doing the same thing after a reset I used the manual method (winbox) down the side rather than quickset & things went as expected.
What gives is quickset just broken??
Have you tried using winbox or webfig to change the frequency without quickset in /interface wireless?
Yes am using winbox now was using quickset via winbox before.
So if I invoked quickset via winbox & change the freq dead radio.
So if I invoked quickset via winbox & change the IP most of the time dead radio.
Quite possiably if I make any changes with quickset after invoking it from winbox radio dead.
If from winbox I use the manual menus ie the ones below quickset, Inferface (/) etc no problem. Have just set my router up in 15mins using this method after 3-4 days of trying just to set the IP & Freq with quickset.
Is quickset broken? or my router?
When I say radio dead I think I could still scan etc but from an AP point of view dead. Think interface (terminology?) was not running as the ‘r’ had gone.

Thanx
This could be a bug with quickset. You might want to email support at support@mikrotik.com.
Edit: correct email address
I see now that u only fet an ‘r’ when somethings is actually conected. It’s been working just fine all night so I will do a backup followed by a reset and see what happens again when I try quickset.

Thank you very much for the report, it seems we have found the problem!
Cool just to note it also seems to happen when I change IP addr also.
Did a reset & AP OK changed IP via Quickset & no AP.
Did a reset & AP OK changed IP via / & AP OK
Thanx
It happens because Quickset changes the wireless protocol to “NV2” which is RouterOS only, laptops can’t use it. We will fix it.
