RB600 processor

Sorry for the stupid question…
RB600 MPC8343E 266/400MHz network CPU means that its processor may work both at 266 and 400 MHz according to computational needs? :question:

Rgds

no, it means that it can be clocked at different speeds. We ship the boards with 400MHz

Thank you Normis,
might this be applied also to RB532/RB532A? I have both of them…
If yes, how this can be done?

yes. you can actually change the frequency to a higher one if you wish.

thank you Normis, but… how can I change it? :sunglasses:

you can change cpu speed in /system routerboard settings menu if you have routerboard package installed

Thank you Alex,
I’ve done it, but frequency doesn’t change…It seems that I have the same problem described in http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/rb532-333mhz-how/15461/5:frowning:

you have to do folowing steps:
/system routerboard settings
set cpu-frequency=399MHz
keep-frequency
Shutdown your board and do powercycle (turn off and on power)

Just connect the console to the board and on startup press any key to enter the BIOS - it is possible to change frequency settings there.
