Detect internet stopped working

At some point about 3h30m ago the detect internet function in my mikrotik routers stopped adding interfaces to the internet interface list

This happened to two devices in two different locations with 2 different isp connections.

I can still connect to cloud.mikrotik.com on udp port 3000 using “nc -zvu cloud.mikrotik.com 3000”

Did something happen?

Not discounting a potential service outage at Mirkotik, or bug here…

But once an interface is downgraded from Internet state, they don’t go back until a reboot. Does a reboot get it back to the correct state?

Perhaps a typo in your post, but it’s port 30000

same thing on different devices

:open_mouth:

It’s in the docs … so to be clear it says:

WAN interface can fall back to LAN state only when link status changes. LAN interfaces get locked to LAN after 1h and then change only when link status changes.

So depending on what was going on when, they get “stuck”.

I’ve never seen anything like this
Internet - 3 times one minute each (cloud is not responding)-wan-once responding - internet

I find the same issue happens to my AC2 router since yesterday, it unable to turn on detect internet even after I tried to reboot the router. Some users from Vietnam also face the same issue.

I can find info via the help page and performed the test to cloud.mikrotik.com (udp/30000) and it works.

I just try to reboot some of mine router, but the state don’t change

It’s seems as mikrotik cloud is partially not working

Any news?

Another proof that benefits of “detect internet” functionality are … questionable.

Yes, best solution every time is to disable “detect internet”, it provides no useful function.
It is easy enough to maintain the WAN and LAN interface lists manually.

no backup cloud? …

and “detect internet” doesn’t work on the LTE Passthrough interface (p2p mode), status is “wan” only and no cloud check

Ip cloud does work on lte.

Detect internet I disable by default on every device passing my hands…

if this is for me, then I’m not talking about LTE
LTE Passthrough interface (LTE APN Settings)
I have this interface implemented via VLAN

No it does not get back to correct state after a reboot. Oh I tried port 3000 and it worked, and I tried 30000 now and it also works. However, Internet detect is not working, no interface is set to internet anymore.

Yeah, I am only using it because for some reason I can’t make the router use a route with a distance higher than the main route. It will just ignore the interface completely. Even if I have it set in a routing table, with no other route. If the route on main has a distance that makes it not the active one then the routing table will be ignored and data will be sent over the main route somehow.

So in a frugal attempt to sort this out I have firewall rules that only nat data that is sent thru the interfaces that are part of the “internet” list.

I’m not sure the “internet” state part is working right either (at least after one test this AM). Basically I don’t see it’s going to “internet” state when it should. On a RB1100Ahx4 with v7.12rc1, that has a static public IP and very basic config for containers testing.

Now, /ip/cloud shows the correct public & seem to work… But detect internet does do “wan” detect, but not “internet”, as would be expected in my case. Now…if you don’t have a public IP…then whether it go to “internet” depend on upstream NATing…

My only use case for it is so Mikrotik App’s “Internet Status” screen shows up correctly to end-users using the iPhone app. And app show “wan” state as “limited availability” while “internet” state gets “available” displayed. Since the “detect internet” feature is so prominent in the app, I’ve been forced to deal with it & it’s always been problematic.

“Detect internet” is useful to me
It shows “wan” on ethernet and ppp ( 3G modem ) interfaces since 20:58 GMT 20.10.2023.
Reload didn’t help.

Was this working to get you to “internet” state before, and recently stopped?

With a LTE 3G modem, it possible the CGNAT isn’t connect to UDP on port 30000. It may also be a bug here, IDK yet.

I have Mikrotiks with pppoe, lte, dhcp on the wan interface
the status is “wan” everywhere, does not go to “internet”
since

it worked fine before, except on the LTE Passthrough interface

Yes, it was working fine with 3G
