I recently upgraded my MikroTik router to the latest RouterOS version, and since then I have been experiencing intermittent packet loss and random client disconnects throughout the day. The issue affects both wired and wireless devices, although it seems more noticeable during periods of moderate network activity. Before the upgrade, the network had been running reliably for several months without any noticeable connectivity problems.
I have already tried rebooting the router, resetting interface settings, checking CPU and memory usage, replacing Ethernet cables, and temporarily disabling firewall rules to rule out configuration conflicts. I also reviewed the system logs, but there are no obvious errors that coincide with the connection drops. The troubleshooting process reminds me of discussions in [gsmneo frp bypass](mod removed link)) communities, where a firmware or software update can introduce unexpected compatibility issues. Downgrading individual configuration changes has not made any difference, and the problem continues to occur unpredictably.
Has anyone encountered a similar issue after upgrading RouterOS? Are there any diagnostic tools, log settings, or specific configuration areas that I should inspect to identify the root cause? I would appreciate any suggestions on troubleshooting this problem before I consider performing a complete configuration reset or rolling back to an earlier RouterOS version.
