Hi,
Just flashed version 7.9 on hAP lite only to find MPLS missing. Is this normal?
Is there a way to enable it by disabling few others I don’t need?
thx.
The general consensus around here is that ROS7 and hAP Lite don’t mix together.
The device simply doesn’t have enough resources (especially RAM) to run comfortably.
Stay on latest ROS6 for that device.
Here is the relevant link:

Not all features exist on all architectures. hAP Lite is a very basic home device, it lacks the needed resources.
Normis, thanks for the link.
Now I’m gonna have to try to have MPLS working between v.6.x (hAP lite) and v.7.x (x86).
Sure it was horrible at first few hours? may be. I mean after flashing 7.
But it settled down eventually and whatever IS supported (On v7.x), ran well on hAP lite.
FYI, I tried v7.9
I’m now on v6 not because any issues with stabilities but they simply do not support MPLS on hAP lite.
Well, that’s my two cents worth if anyone wants to have a go with 7 on hAP lite. Give plenty of time to settle down.
I use a hap lite as a wireless bridge. Just default configuration with quickset profile CPE applied. Even this minimal config did not run stable on v7. After a short time (1 to several days), the device started to get unresponsive. It was not even possible to SSH into it. It even when SSH still worked, you could watch appearing the characters you just typed - in slomotion 1 char / second. I then disabled any service I was not using (winbox, webfig, …) to maybe resolve these resource issues. But un the end, nothing helped to make this device stable with V7. I went back to V6 using the same quickset profile CPE, and it is happily running and performing with several months of uptime now.
Interesting. I wonder why mine ran well.
I did have the same experience mind you. But all decided to go well the next day.
Maybe because you didn’t try with v7.9?
