Bridge on RB750Gr3 (6.41.2) seems to be broken.

  1. No HW offload on ethernet interfaces after upgrade from 6.41.1:
Flags: X - disabled, I - inactive, D - dynamic, H - hw-offload

  1. Bridge settings freezes constantly (for example, after trying to check/uncheck “igmp snooping”, bridge completely shuts down and remain disabled for approx. 1 minute).

It’s slightly annoying…

82

In my RB750GR3 the same thing happens … looking for more info I found this that seems to be the reason why what happens is what happens.

Release 6.41.1 2018-02-02
What’s new in 6.41.1 (2018-Jan-30 10:26):

*) bridge - fixed hw-offload disabling for Mediatek and Realtek switches when STP / RSTP configured;
*) bridge - fixed hw-offload disabling when adding a port with “horizon” set;

This will have to do with what you mention ???

Regards!!!

83

I have 750Gr3 and HW offload works, but you need to set Protocol Mode to “none”.

/interface bridge
add name=bridge-internal protocol-mode=none
84

Then because the script of the default configuration of the RB750GR3 has set “protocol-mode = rstp” ??? It would be a problem to solve by Mikrotik support, since being in RSTP mode will never use HW OFF …

85

Yes, rstp was enabled on bridge…
However, disabling rstp took about 3-4 minutes, i think that’s a little too slow… Changing other settings (like “fast forward”) also freezes the bridge for several minutes.

Hi!
I successfully updated through Dude all my rb941 (2 pieces) ccr1009 (2 pieces) and RB WAP G-5hact2hnd from 6.41.1 to 6.41.2.
But I couldn’t update any rb962.
Also, I tried to update rb962 via Winbox.
The reason is: there is not enough space.
rb962 have only 16 MB, of which only 20-30% is available.
Last time I altering them through NetInstall/
What to do now?

87

ap - cAP ac (RouterBOARD cAP Gi-5acD2nD)
ARP table - empty
Current Tx Power 2GHz - empty

OS - 6.41.2

Real IPQ4019 ???
In specification - IPQ4018.

hi guys, on my rb750Gr3 with firmware 6.42rc28 I wanted to mount a hotspot for a job. I can not install the user-manager package.
Are there any solutions?
thank you all

ap - cAP ac (RouterBOARD cAP Gi-5acD2nD)
OS - 6.41.2

Some clients are disconnected from the point here with such an error:
disconnected, extensive data loss
and
disconnected, received disassoc: sending station leaving (8)
I settings many MicroTick AP.
The settings are the same everywhere, it’s on this, new such problems.

For example, this client is sitting on the spot, does not run around the office.

Well, here’s a look at what the rest are doing …

FYI: 0 dBm does not mean “empty”/zero power. It is a valid value and means 1 mW. Still odd though, if it changed by itself.

@sindy

Thanks for pointing out which order to use in scripting. I must have been lucky that my scripts worked in earlier versions without paying that much attention to the order.

92

The new chips have a new method of obtaining power data. not yet supported Route OS.

My current router was ISP supplied and has all the default config on it. If i download this update and install it, will this setup be overwritten? Will i have issues due to PPPoE settings being factory reset ?

94

Even if you upgrade between stable versions, you should always backup the configuration and download the backup file from the router. Exporting it in the text form into another file (using “/export file=backup_version_today”) is also a good practice because the “binary” backups from older versions are not always readable by newer versions. And noting down any credentials (in your case, especially those related to the PPPoE account) is also a good idea.

I assume that your ISP doesn’t mind you to do the upgrade as they’ve given you administrator rights to the router.

I am sorry but I am still confused with the new bridge implementation :frowning:

I updaten one of my wAP-ac to 6.41.2 and created a bridge - this bridge has an IP 10.0.100.4/24 and PVID1 because the AP itself is a part of the administrative-VLAN1-un-tagged (Internet-Cable-Modem to Firewall to Switch to wAP-ac via TRUNKs).

Connected to the bridge via PORT is the only one available ether1 - this port has a PVID1 as well because if I understood the brief explanation of MikroTik, it is need for the un-tagged ingress (from ether-cable to port-ether1 / port-ether1 to the bridge) traffic … On this PORT there is a cable with Trunk (vlan1-un-tagged, vlan10-tagged, vlan20-tagged, etc.).
Frame-Types = admit all … correct / why ?
Ingress-Filtering = unchecked … correct / why ?

The next PORT to the bridge is the physical WLAN-chip (not vAP) - this port also has PVID1 because the SSID of the WLAN-chip is the administrative-VLAN1-un-tagged.
Frame-Types = admit all … correct / why ?
Ingress-Filtering = unchecked … correct / why ?

Now the vAP’s … e.g. vAP10, vAP20, vAP30, etc.
For example: vAP10 has PVID10
Frame-Types = admit only VLAN tagged … correct / why ?
Ingress-Filtering = unchecked … correct / why ?

Next is interface / bridge / VLAN:

I created VLAN ID = 1
Tagged = empty … correct / why ?
Untagged = bridge, vlan1, wAP-2GHz, wAP5GHz … correct / why ?

I created VLAN ID = 10
Tagged = bridge, vlan10 … correct / why ?
Untagged = vAP10 … correct / why ?

At the end I activated VLAN-Filtering under /interface bridge

One additional question … is it needed to create the VLANs under /interface VLAN, too ?

As you see there are some puzzle-brickets I know but I am not able to make a picture of them :frowning:

Any help is highly appreciated - especially with explanation :slight_smile:

96

I’d suggest you to either join this topic or create a new one.

97

I did, but I am still confused :frowning: Maybe because of the WLAN-aspect ?
And I opened one here - but I found other issues in between … http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/wap-ac-new-bridge-solution-6-41-x/116478/1

LHG´s AC 6.41.2
After the restarts it shows:
memory; system, error, critical; kernel failure in previous boot.
in the shutdown of the system only reboots

any solution?
Thank
…
reset when you change the configuration and the connection wlan falls

Folks,

I tried twice to move from 6.40.3 to other streams, but a few weeks after the upgrade, the router started going slow, and after a reboot, the same problem happened, exactly the same the two times: it lost part of the new bridge configurations. Even with reboots or reloading the configs, it would not fix it.. very, very strange.

It was a real pain to download the old 6.40.3 code using my cell phone as internet access to upload it to the router and restore old config.

Anyone had the same problem?

Now, Im back to 6.40.x.. just moved to 6.40.6 to see how that one is.. otherwise, will downgrade to 6.40.3 again.

My hAPlite locked up after upgrading from 6.3 something using quickset to download and install.

I upgraded winbox through the tool option first, it crashed.
It worked when I restarted it and I got into the router to run quickset.
It rebooted OK, I got in and was looking at the log when it died.
I’ve done 3 power cycles and it still won’t respond to pings.

Will netinstall preserve any supout data? I think that is my only recourse to help troubleshoot what happened.
My 10+ year old RB532 is working fine, otherwise this would be a letter.
