license questions/ upgrades/etc/

RouterOS General

Just a quick question.
I’ve installed version 3.3 onto an alix board, I installed 3.3 because I had read somewhere that for some reason, folks had more success putting version 3 onto the alixPC and then upgrading to 4.

So for now I only have a demo license, and I want to go ahead and purchase a level 5. So It appears that I can’t upgrade to 4 without a license, so would I simply purchase a license and it will work for my 3.3 version, then I upgrade from there? or do I have to get a 3.3 license and upgrade my license to 4. hmmmm…

chickens and eggs.

hope thats clear.

thanks

if it is new install better start out with testing v4, and see if everything is ok. Since you are going to v4 sometime anyway. Then you also can buy license straight for that version and have no guesses about what will and what will not work with license upgrade afterwards.

Or choose 3.30 (three thirty)
