Quickset (new in v5.12)

RouterOS General
1

Announcing Quickset, the easy way to configure a new router. Starting from v5.12, new SXT, RB711 and RB411 devices will have Quicket - just plug in your ethernet cable, open 192.168.88.1 and you will see a very easy to use interface to set the most basic settings for your router. If anything is missing, just go to the regular webfig and delve into the powerful RouterOS configuration.

Features:

  • currently supports RB411, RB711 and SXT CPE devices
  • automatically logs into devices with admin/no password
  • quickly see list of available APs and their signals
  • quickly align the station, by instantly seeing the signal graph of selected device
  • quickly set up/down speed by selecting from dropdown (or type custom speed, ex 128K)
  • can set basic WAN/LAN settings
  • also featured in Winbox

Perfect for ISPs installing CPE devices at the customer location. Click click and you’re done!

Please test it (a system reset on any of the mentioned devices should bring up the Quickset menu) and let us know your thoughts, suggestions and problems.

UBNT style :frowning:

Why and where? Full webfig is still available on the same page, we have not reduced functionality, just added a easy interface as an addition.

4

Not for me, but it looks like many will find it useful. Suggestion: Add checkbox option to remove the built-in input firewall on these devices. You may want to go a bit further than that with the firewall, but still that is an option that would be needed.

I’ve got one RB411 and one RB411A (level 4).
Quickset exists only on RB411 !!! Isn’t 411A a 411?

P.S. Probably an " OR 411A" on hardware check is missing…

6

RB411A has an AP license, it’s not a CPE unit.

7

that figures..

8

Please add pppoe client configuration. It will be easy for our technicians to configure pppoe in CPEs

9

Basically this is a new feature, we are starting by adding support only to three specific models listed above. We will see the response from you all, and will roll out updates, and more supported models in next versions. Let us know what you think!

thanks for suggestion! what settings do you usually configure? interface, user/pass and service name? of if PPPoE is always on the WAN port, maybe user/pass is enough (use empty service name)?

11

Any plans to support RB751G-2HnD

12

PPPoE is always in WAN port (Wireless interface) and we usually configure interface (Wlan), user/pass. Service name is empty

13

this will have AP quickset, which is still under development. any suggestions?

14

For us, just service name would be great…
Thanks…

15

sorry to say this but i should say:
may be it is very useful for newbies but hopeless for professionals.
it is like fast foods. (eat and run)!
and psychologically like ubnt airOS! :confused:

16

but then don’t use it. it’s not forced, just an optional menu

17

i know you worked hard on it and that was not induction, just my idea.
please don’t be upset from me normis.

18

why not all rb support this feature??

is more easy for noob an begginers

19

this additional option maybe useful for newbies but not the professionals as the brother said
so its not make so much different
by the way ,
i had some problem with the version 5.11 , when i reset the configuration the routerboard still keeping the old user name and passwords
should i use the console cable to reset the passwords?
and why it changed like this in this version?
