*) winbox - make keyboard work right away after main window is activated;

is this mean for now winbox have keyboard short cut?

3

no, it means that if you have terminal opened in winbox, and use alt-tab to switch to the winbox window, you will be able to type right away. you will not have to click on the terminal window to type

4

ack value at legacy A clients stay not show / removed for all ? / If its possible please readd this value to winbox

5

use Distance now.

6

ik but when i have many clients in range 100-500m information value of “distance” is zero, ack is good value for determining som bad situations eg. watter in antenna, connector or bad pointed dish with long distance links. you can make both vaules for winbox or no ?

7

Ack time value is directly connected to Distance value. If previously those bad locations showed abnormal Ack times, now they will show abnormal distances.

8

*) pcq - can specify address masks for pcq;

normis, can you give us some details about this new feature ?
