Please keep this forum topic strictly related to this particular RouterOS release.
On the version 6.47.8 command repartition still not working (e.g. “/partitions repartition partitions =2”) causes the router’s cyclic reboot (about every 10 seconds).
On the version 6.46.8 this command works correctly.

On the version 6.47.8 command “system telnet” does not work with parametr “routing-table”. Error “telnet: Unknown argument”

telnet: Unknown argument
Welcome back!
On the version 6.45.9 this command works correctly.

Trying 192.168.1.1…
Connected to 192.168.1.1.
Escape character is ‘^]’.
Look in 6.48beta topic... there is some discussion about that.
Normally the text "improved system stability" means: fixed something that caused a hard crash/hang/reboot.
Similarly the text "improved stability when receiving bogus packets" means: fixed a DoS possibility or even a gaping security hole.
E.g. in this case the "improved stability with large table of static records" refers to a DoS possibility in the DNS resolver that is now fixed (although it still does not work correctly)
I can confirm, my CRS328-24P-4S+RM no longer displays health.
With 6.47.7 I could see temps, fan RPMs, wattages, voltages, amperage, etc.
With this version you click the option and nothing gets displayed / happens..
The update killed the wireless speed on a RB4011+ down to less than 8M. I couldn’t even log in with WinBox/WebFig. Wired, everything was OK. I don’t use the default channel width, so maybe I need to reset everything to default and start over. Since I spent many hours testing various devices to get good wireless speeds on this router, I’ll update a spare HAP ac2 when I have more time to play with this release.
I have been keeping away from recent updates to avoid issues. Back to 6.45.8 for now.
EDIT: As I thought, I solved the issue by resetting to defaults and starting over with all settings instead of just loading a backup.
EDIT: I mean I am retarded then? It should show the section, but should not display temperatures if no sensor. Please be consistent, otherwise you have to hide lots of sections, like wireless if no wifi card present, or LTE if no modem present…
winbox - show “System/Health” only on boards that have health monitoring;
Can you explain this a little bit? Does it include an improvement regarding watchdog for arm ethernet routers? Arm routers (1100xr) frequently switch off and on under high load due to the watchdog.
