RouterOS Beginner Basics

Hi All,

I’ve just upgrade my mAP2n from 6.24 to 6.25.
I drog and drop the file to the “System/Packages” (routeros-mipsbe-6.25.npk) and “System/Reboot”.
After that almost all LED light (exept PoE Out", and approximately 15sec they go Off for a short time and again On.

When they come back on, can you connect with Winbox ?

Hi,

How can I connect to the device?
Tcp/Ip? I don’t know the Ip addrss of the device :frowning:
MAC? “Could not connet to 4C:5E:0C:7C:16:DA (port 20561) - timed out!”

Any another idea?

Use discovery button in winbox and then click on Mac address in the list.

I have tried to upgrade mAP, got one from the factory with 6.11.
Installed 6.24 and then upgraded to 6.25.

All LEDs are working and board booted just fine.


For your current device try to use reset button.

  • firstly try to load backup BIOS by pressing reset button for 2-3 seconds during boot;
  • if it does not help, try to reinstall device by Netinstall. Hold reset button for 15 seconds to launch Netinstall,

Let us know about the results.

I just got one of these in last night and did the upgrade from the web interface now it will not boot, all the LEDs light up but PoE. I tried to do the netinstall, when holding down the button for ~15 seconds the LEDs change and AP, USR, and PoE turn off for about 10 seconds then the others flash off and light up again. When looking on my laptop it seems like the Eth1 port is in a loop to try and bring itself up contently disconnecting. Netinstall never sees the mAP2n. Dose this mean the box is dead?

WebLuke, what version was used for upgrade?

Try to find another compute with Windows 7 or XP (make sure firewall is disabled on your router), try to run Netinstall once again. Hold reset button, apply power, make sure to hold Ethernet button for 15-17 seconds.
The latest Netinstall should be used,

Net-booting address should be configured.

Talked with a friend who runs a bunch of MikroTik wireless systems, and I was trying to run the Netinstall connected to Eth2, once connected to Eth1 it worked. Now mine is running ROS 6.25 and working great.
