What’s new in 5.0rc7 (2010-Dec-29 10:39):

*) fixed hotspot;
*) tftp - fixed problem when nobody could
connect if no ip-address were provided;
*) winbox - fixed mac ping from neighbor list;
*) fixed simple queues on little endian cpus;
*) fixed simple queues without provided dst-address;
*) fixed problem - could not update license for
old style 7 digit software-id’s;
*) fixed winbox - IPv6 route could not be added;
*) ssh - allow bigger packets (fixes some disconnecting problems);
*) added support for RDC R6040 Ethernet controller;

Note 1: This is a fix-only release, all that was reported in the v5rc6 topic has been addressed. User Manager has not been changed.
Note 2: PPP support for IPV6 will be re-added in rc8

Why is on the web old winbox 2.2.16? http://www.mikrotik.com/download/winbox.exe
Why isnt there a new one 2.2.18? Why is it necessary to download it from the router?
Thanks

Download it from the router.

Im not getting a IPv6 Stateless address on my Win7 computer or my ipad.. I did on rc6 and rc5.

Is there any plan on enabling short gaurd interval on NV2 to support higher data rates for us that use it for PtP applications? NV2 seems to allow higher data rates over long distances, I would love to see the full 150 and 300Mbps data rates!

Also, it would be nice to allow the SR71-15 full TX power.

Try to disable and enable IPv6 protocol on that interface in Windows 7.

Note 1: This is a fix-only release, all that was reported in the v5rc6 topic has been addressed. User Manager has not been changed.

It seems that no one had noticed the ethernet problem because it was on another topic, so i´m posting the message in this topic to see if it can be solved in 5.0rc8 if it is a software problem.

Think he is talking about next post:

This looks like the eth port flapping issue I reported way back.

Relax because this is just log junk accumulated from unused ports (if same issue).

Otherwise all else works (or breaks) as expected/reported.

Take care and make sure to find bugs in the more important features.
Share a success story from time to time too :slight_smile:

It is. In my office on 5.0rc6 it works. At home it worked on rc5 and 6. When I went to rc7 it stopped. On my iPhone, iPad, and on my win7 laptop. Didn’t try in Linux on my laptop yet.

What is your configuration? Is it on bridge interface? What does radv logs say?

16

Whats the “Safe Mode” thingy in winbox top left corner? :slight_smile:

Now there’s a GUI toggle rather than having to use the Terminal window in winbox.

18

Yes, bridge interface. Havent had a chance to look at the logs. Its almost NYE and I work in the hospitality industry = busy. ;D

19

If you have a bridge then it is a known problem and may happen on some configurations. Disable/enable bridge interface and radv should start to work. Bugfix will be in RC8.
