login failure only from Winbox

RouterOS General
1

Something super odd is happening to me.

The device is hAP ac2 running 6.46.2. My last successful login was 3 days ago. Since then I didn’t do anything.

Now when I try to login via Winbox I am getting a login failure. I thought I messed up the credentials after trying a 100 times but I just decided to do a telnet test and boom!!! it worked with the same credentials.

Via telnet, I even added a new user with a new password and again it doesn’t allow me to login via Winbox. I have a feeling this is a bug.

I don’t have any filtering enabled for Winbox service.

Any ideas?

Make sure you have the latest version of Winbox.

or … are you copying and pasting the password maybe?

Had the same thing. I disabled via SSH the winbox ip service en enabled it again. That worked for me.
