Sector writes

RouterOS General
1

Hello

I have a RB750G running RouterOS v4.16. Since the last reboot (18 days ago) I have about 3 million sector writes (Total 11 mil). What could be causing them?
NTP Client active, Logging settings default. The log only show’s when I’ve connected via winbox.

any webproxy, dude, user manager installed?

3

Nope.
Admin is the only user.

I think what normis is asking is weather you have thoes modules installed and using them

5

I’m not using any of them.

you could also change configuration a lot, log to file, have set up hotspot and have some configuration in webproxy.

I didn’t change the configuration since then (I’m using the router at home with only a few PC’s behind it), nor do I log the a file. I also don’t have any wireless devices

[admin@MikroTik] /ip proxy> print
                 enabled: no
             src-address: 0.0.0.0
                    port: 8080
            parent-proxy: 0.0.0.0
       parent-proxy-port: 0
     cache-administrator: "webmaster"
          max-cache-size: none
           cache-on-disk: no
  max-client-connections: 600
  max-server-connections: 600
          max-fresh-time: 3d
   serialize-connections: no
       always-from-cache: no
          cache-hit-dscp: 4
             cache-drive: system

In the store list I have one called web-proxy1. It was probably created when I tried out the web-proxy for a few minutes after buying the router.

[admin@MikroTik] /store> print
Flags: X - disabled, A - active 
 #   NAME                     TYPE                   DISK                   STATUS   
 0 A web-proxy1               web-proxy              system                 active

However I can’t disable/remove it:

[admin@MikroTik] /store> disable web-proxy1
store is used
[admin@MikroTik] /store> remove web-proxy1
store is used

Who is using it if the web-proxy is disabled? A reboot doesn’t help.

Please see menu IP > Web Proxy > Web Proxy Settings, then go to Status window. You will see that Uptime is not a zero time (probably uptime is time since last reboot). You should corecttly stops Web Proxy service.
