RouterOS version 6.49.19 has been released in the “v6 long-term” channel! Before an upgrade: Remember to make backup/export files before an upgrade and save them on another storage device; Make sure the device will not lose power during upgrade process; Device has enough free storage space for al…

Wow! Super! Finally updated the router from version 6 to 7.19.3 which had a list of packages instead of npk.

Just update to 6.49.19 … but for my R11e-LTE6 Modem, only firmware V038 is available, not V039? br Richard

#[SUP-126246]: Winbox IPv6 ND reachable time units Regression introduced in 6.47.10 which was a long-term telease, still in 6.49.19. Cosmetic, value correctly in seconds, just wrong label “ms” shown in Winbox. [obraz]

I created a new key pair for SSH … it works right away on rb5009 with 7.19.3, but on ltAP with 6.49.19 you still need the parameter “PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes +ssh-rsa” … is that possible?

Possible, yes. Totally different ROS versions, you see … Logical ? That’s another question. Maybe not.

[image] EdPa: upgrade - the upgrade, testing, and development channels now direct to the latest stable version of RouterOS v7; Does this mean v6 is EOL now? Are there any updates to the v6 long-term channel planned? Will v7 get long-term channel anytime soon?

There are several answers scattered around the forum given by the MikroTik team that allow for the clear understanding that new features will not be added to v6. That the focus will be only on fixing bugs that compromise the operation of the equipment. But to this day, there's no official statemen…

[image] fischerdouglas: new features will not be added to v6 It's obvious. Anyway it would be nice to know for how long the long-term v6 channel will live :slight_smile: There's a lot of older but perfectly functional devices in the wild.

I have upgraded all APs and the cloud router, but a hexs (RB760iGS ) insists on continue on 6.49.1. I tried to find any reason/bug/restriction associated with that device, but I could not find any reason. Anyone experiencing this? Or knows why this device would stick to 6.49.1?

V6.49.19 [long-term] is released!
