[solved] RB2011UiAS - turns off / self-initiated standby

Hi Community,

i’ve configured a RB2011UiAS-2HnD-IN as a Hotspot with walled garden.

Unluckily, I’m facing a strange problem with this device.
In my office, the router runs without any problems over days.
On my customers site, it turns off after a while. If I plug the network cable (which is the only cable attached), the router is booting up again.

I’ve replaced the RB2011UiAS-2HnD-IN with a new one - same problem.
Has anybody here faced this behavior before?

Make sure you are running RouterOS 6.4 or newer and RouterBOOT 3.09 or newer; reference this thread. In general, it is just recommended that you update to the latest versions.

Hi Nathan,

thank you for your reply.

I’ll try to update the “RouterBOOT” when i get the device back from the customer.
The firmware version on the device is RouterOS 6.21.1.

As far as I understand, RouterBOOT doesn’t update automatically with the RouterOS Update?

It seems like gigabit ethernet on the wan side could be the problem, I’ll try to check that too.

Hi,

it seems like the onsite admin forgot to turn off poe on the connected switch.

Problem solved. :smiley:
