Any reasons why it says v6.46.6 (testing) instead of stable?

This is just text, you can ignore it. Small bug in the description field

5

Unfortunately we have left it as “testing” by mistake when building the version. It is just the name of the version - this is a stable build published in stable channel.

6

Poor dude who just didn’t break it … With every update it’s getting worse. :frowning:
I want you to administer 100000 MikroTik to your dude using the built-in features. :open_mouth:

7

Make a correct WOL or remove it. Without hosts list it is useless. Add bridge interface

8

Not only that but you cannot select bridge from the list because it’s not there. Terminal command works so that’s what I am going to use until WoL gets improved in WinBox.

9

Why you don’t fix OSPF ? :confused:

10

which means specifically *) wireless - improved system stability on hAP ac ^ 2 ?

11

Possibly because they could not reproduce. Did you open a support ticket?

12

We have this strange OSPF problems too. Especially on large routers with many EPL circuits, with many Ethernet links and many GRE-links.
This problem rise up at random, but I do not know how to reproduce it… It is appear after large scale carrier takes downtime and many links goes down\up at once. I think so, but I may be wrong…
Several members here note this problem from 6.44.6 till now…

13

Hello,
Please could you elaborate on

*) wireless - improved system stability on hAP ac^2;

I just opened a ticket asking for tech support regarding wireless sudden re-associations of some of my devices, and I just saw this release. I am currently on long-term branch, but if you explain this wireless changes I may consider switching to stable. Working from home is a pain in the *** doing video calls and getting disconnected of the AP, even for juts 5 seconds.

Regards.

Does L2TP_IPSec now work? :confused:
I had to downgrade from 6.47.rc60 to 6.44.6 in order to find a version that would behave normally.
Not sure if I had to go that far but did it by recommendation.
Guess I’m going to wait till someone else gives me an ok wave. :sunglasses:

15

Upgraded from 6.46.5 to 6.46.6 n so far I didnt see any better. Maybe need to wait for 6.46.7 for stability.

16

Did it get worse than 6.46.5? Do you have problems with 6.46.5? All fixes are not for all, so it may be that there are changes that makes it better for others.

17

Upgraded a AC 2 to this Version, configured as CAP. Nothing else changed. Several Devices cannot see the WiFi ssid. Nö connection possible.
Just downgrading to LT Version helps.

18

Some of my routers are HAP AC2. Not getting worse but not any better.
I can tell if 6.43.16 still faster n more stable than 6.44.6 to 6.46.6.
Problem? Yes.

  1. Sometimes wireless G cant connect, while wireless N can always connect n working just fine. Mode bgn. 6.43.16 dont have this issue.
  2. Some installation at office building with alot of noise, 6.43.16 perform better for 2.4ghz.
  3. PPTP from android phone, will go disconnect in few mins. With 6.43.16, the same phone can connected for hours without any problem.
    Most installation still with 6.43.16 n will stay at 6.43.16 until MT can make another real stable version.
19

Downgraded to 6.45.8 (longhterm). It’s a pleasure to work with a dude after 2 months of hell with “super stable” versions of the dude 6.46.4 - 6.46.6. How did you manage to make him such a disabled person?
