Hello becs,

It is really frustrating. I copied my posting from v 2.8…

German IPTV (Entertain TV, MR401/201) still not working at all with this SwOS version (CSS326). No IGMP v3.
Picture freezes after a few seconds.

Independent of setting IGMP snooping.

Using together with FritzBox 7590.

Latest usable version is 2.4 (with packet flood on all ports due to missing IGMP)

Please implement IGMP v3 in next update.
Thanks.

Robert

Updated all my RB260GS(CSS106-5G-1S) to 2.9 without any issues.

So given this comment and no mention of IGMP in official changelog we may safely conclude IGMP is not yet fixed.
God job Mikrotik team!

I’m staying on v2.4 until IGMP is fixed.

Any fixes for the issues with RX overruns and RX FCS errors included in this release?

Where can I find the 2.8 files? I want to check if some strange behaviour of my rb260gsp is related to the update

I’ve been patient version after version since 2.3

Each time I upgrade, there’s endless issues. Resetting resets to 2.0 and then I’d have to pray and hope it’d upgrade to the latest with my settings intact, and then having to restore again.

This is on CSS326. Can mikrotik somehow allow RouterOS to be installed on CSS326 because honestly, SwOS is complete garbage. Yes I’m annoyed. You already have a good 1 year to fix the product and its still garbage.

Hi all,
Is there prove of bugs fixing appeared @2.8 for CRS317-1G-16S+ ?
Especial freezing of switch, which forced us all to downgrade to 2.7?

I have a CRS317 that in version 2.8 often crashed the management, it was very slow access. The traffic flowed normal but the management looked strange.

This issue has been resolved with version 2.9.

@RobertF and @abrodkin
SwOS has supported IGMP v1,v2,v3 since v2.5, also many issues have been addressed since then and now in v2.9 there is an additional port option to disable unknown multicast flooding. We are not aware of common IGMP Snooping problems anymore.
If you experience problems using IGMP Snooping in SwOS, please, write to MikroTik support so your cases can be individually investigated.

@storp
Yes, the v2.9 contains the latest improvements for 10G → 1G performance issues and they can help regarding Rx Overruns in other setups as well.

SwOS v2.8 for RB260:
https://download.mikrotik.com/swos2/css106/swos-css1061g4p1s-2.8.bin

Updated my CSS106-5G-1S from 2.8 and all appears to be working. However, after the upgrade, this is what the Upgrade page says:

Firmware
Current Installed Version	2.9 (built at Mon Jan 07 2019 03:04:37 GMT-0800 (GMT-08:00))
Latest Available Version	2.9 (built at Mon Jan 14 2019 02:29:12 GMT-0800 (GMT-08:00))

At the bottom, it says that there is an upgrade available. Tried the upgrade again and it still comes up with the 07 January version and not the 14 January version.
I have not upgraded the other three switches yet.

Same here

Upgrading from 2.8 to 2.9 on a CSS106-5G-1S causes severe traffic drop between 1G ports and 100Mbit ports. It’s random from 0 to 40Mbps.
Reverting back to 2.8 traffic increased back to steady 100Mbps.

I can’t any longer access webui on vlan management port… coming from 2.7… do i need to reset settings?.. what settings are required to be able to access webui from vlan99?

i did set the management port on the system page.

Are there any errors in interface stats when using v2.8 or v2.9?

The issues (random video playback lags -wirered- or loosing wireless connection) vanished with downgrade to 2.8 of my two rb260gsp.

Before downgrading I looked for transmission errors, but none were shown.

Ralf.

No errors at all on any port.

Any with CRS317 & 2.9 ?

Yes. Works.
