Hi

I’ve just accidentally deleted usb port in system => ports. Serial is still there. How can I restore it ?

did you try to reboot ?

mike1977 · December 4, 2013, 10:41am

Yes, many times…

You can always try netinstall

try to unplug and plug the usb device back.

Maybe i havn’t expressed myself quite accurate.
Connected USB devices are being seen eg. pendrive.

But usb port is missed from:

[admin@MikroTik] > port 
[admin@MikroTik] /port> print
Flags: I - inactive 
 #   NAME                                                                CHANNELS USED-BY                                                             BAUD-RATE
 0   serial0                                                                    1 Serial Console                                                      auto     
[admin@MikroTik] /port>

Now there is only serial0 present.

But if you do see connected USB devices, why do you need to see an empty USB port?

bysard · December 5, 2013, 5:58am

I would. It should be there, so yes.

normis · December 5, 2013, 6:08am

It is not supposed to be there, if you don't have any USB device plugged in. This is my RB2011:
[admin@normis] /port> print
Flags: I - inactive

NAME CHANNELS USED-BY BAUD-RATE

0 serial0 1 Serial Console auto

For example to connect a 3g modem.
It will be necessary to pinpoint a serial port in ppp section during creation of ppp connetion.
Now, even when a 3g modem is connected, there is only serial0 (physical rs323 port) present. So it is impossible to send AT commands to it.

mike1977 · December 5, 2013, 11:34am

But it was there… Since my stupid, accidental action which was a click on that red “minus” icon

normis · December 5, 2013, 11:37am

It was not supposed to be there. It being there was the bug, not the opposite

mike1977 · December 5, 2013, 11:49am

Ok, but in this case, how can I do a cofiguration of 3g modem?

Ok, corretion. Since 6.7 usb port has appeared in ppp section.
Sorry And TNX

Plug it in, and it should appear.

Is that still the behavior? 6.36rc10 and a USB port that did work no longer shows up. I’ve tried a UPS, an LTE card that did work and a USB flash drive.
