Hummm … in specs for cAP ax (and comparison to cAP ac), shouldn’t the row be titled “Tx Power (2.4 / 5 Ghz dBm)” rather than “Tx Gain” ? And it’s capital “B” in (deci)Bell(miliwatts) …
Looking forward to trying out the cAP ax.
no ipv6 fast-track? really?!
On default passwords:
I understand where it comes from (European legislation) but I do not get why the printing on the labels need to be so small.
Also I am not sure all the info which is on there now, needs to be there.
On some labels there is quite a bit of white space left which could have been made to use.
(I’ve already seen AC3, AX3, AX2, AX Lite)
Hi Holvoe, Newsletter 113 → New Mikrotik magnifiying glass, POE not required, now you can read password tags with ease. ;-))
Clearly since Normis already wears magnifying glasses its understandable he doesnt get our pain!!!
My apologies for aging forwards his avatar photo jajajajajajaja
Am I dreaming ;-)))))
I would like some more details of this new default password feature. Is this procedurally generated, e.g. from serial number or MAC address? Or is this a serial ↔ secure password table that each distributor gets? Please explain how a distributor is able to help you with a forgotten password and the security guarantees of such default passwords.
Doesn’t matter how passwords are generated. For ISP routers it is the biggest BS ever. Imagine that you have to configure 20+ new routers for clients or technician connects new router to the network or resets configuration of existing router and admin has to configure it via MAC telnet form the neighbor device. Thank you EU or actually FU EU.
I’m going to have a similar issue. I have an automated script to provision new routers and this is going to cause some trouble.
The default password is not a problem, netinstall exist, and also on close future is available on the other local router.
Also the admin, if is really one admin, already can do remote netinstall when technician connects new router to the network.
And also, if is a true admin, already the device on configuration reset have the wanted default password, not the sticker one.
So, all these password issues are NOT there.
If you do, you probably don’t know all the tools available to those who work with RouterOS devices, while the home user doesn’t care.
It matters a lot. If the algorithm used is easily predicted, it would be worse to have the default password than none - since people wouldn’t change, as it is “secure”.
Now, I’m not saying that this is the case - but I AM saying that really matters how a password is generated.
On a lighter note, I think Mikrotik is setting the new minimal storage to 128MB. Finally we will be able to use partitioning on everything!
me too but until it will fully implemented with capsman, I simply cannot
The only thing missing might be capsman forwarding, the rest should be there, no ?
Hummm …
If you’re going to correct, at least get it right:
GHz not Ghz
Bel not Bell
Also you, the same:
only milliwatt is right.
For example, megawatt is also not spelled MegaWatt or Megawatt.
(obviously if it is the first word of the sentence is “Megawatt”)

You prefer to fix your post?..

Ok.. so… CCR2004 without USB port is a shame but quite understandable… guess there are not quite enough USB ports laying around…
… But what if you’d just upgrade CCR2004 instead of nerfing it - add M.2 or SATA port instead?

Making a RouterBOARD is not like going to the supermarket and shopping,
everything has to be engineered,
and adding components never prepared before, or not supported by the hardware in use,
means doing everything from scratch.
It’s not enough to click on a flag…
When i buy a MikroTik product, usb and sd are the last thing i think about…
If I need disk space, x86, CHR or something like the 1100AHx2 Dude Edition…
