Awesome for releasing this release so soon. Will see if I can test it out later tonight on my RB750Gr3’s and will report back once its done and tested. I really hope the 6.38 bugs are squashed
Still stuck on 3.7.. wonder if joshaven hides out here somewhere, if so, would you be so kind and give us a 3.9 version when you get a few minutes. Thank you.
Update
I have just dropped joshaven a quick email to see if he can upgrade winbox for us macOS users to 3.9 as a temp fix until Mikrotik one day decides to give us a native version. Fingers crossed he is willing to do it.
Just upgrade from within winbox using the check for updates under tools. Works fine for me, although I am using my own wrapped version. It’s pretty easy to do yourself if you want to learn. I use WineBottler with the separate Wine app as it keeps disk space usage down and Wine can be shared with other apps. Either way, with Winbox there’s really no extra stuff you need, so it’s easy to wrap.
This seems to have sorted the fan reporting issue on my 1009-8G-1S-1S+ that I reported after 6.37.3/6.38:
