Software ID upgrade from 7 to 8 code failure

RouterOS General

Hi Guys!

I’m new to the forum, hope to learn a few new things.

Yesterday I experienced a problem, on a RB433 that was running 3.27, I upgraded it to 4.17, all fine
Then I winboxed in, and it showed the license must be updated, also all fine.
The router has internet and dns etc.

But as soon as I press update, its just states done, it does nothing, it doesn’t remove the license timer, and every time I login there the messages is still there, through ssh and winbox.

I’ve done a tcp dump on the IP address on our proxy, but it doesn’t request anything at all, no traffic is going to mikrotik.com. And if I do anything else, like a ping or a lookup etc the traffic is there and it works.

any help would be much appreciated.

Kind Regards
Wayne

You don’t need Internet access on the router, you need Internet access on the host running Winbox.

Thanks for the reply, but I have that as well, the lan I’m plugged in as well as the router thats on the same lan has internet
