Did you fix it? Or what is your post about?
There will be no more updates in version 6? Do I have to go to version 7?
EL DONCITO.
No, if v6 works fine and you do not need any of the new stuff added in v7.
I can’t agree more, its a mess and too busy fixing the bon-fires of V7 now up to 7.5 and crickets for V7 Long Term as its a never ending bug fix.
Hi,
I upgraded my routerboard in a 6hex to this release. Before it was I think v6.48.something. Since then, the temperature is higher by 7°, from 39°C to 46°C. is this something that can generally be observed? Should it trouble me?
in the CPU graphs I cannot see any change, perhaps since all kernels are reported seperately thus just a bit underground noise to be seen, no trend.

Hi,
Did someone had issue with PPTP after upgrading to this version?
Regards
It’s time you use another protocol …
Whatever, if you’re no specific on what problem you have…
In 6.49 i’ve found some issue with expect scripting via telnet.
Right after sending password, terminal and session is closes unexpected.
Expect script:
#!/usr/bin/expect -f
set timeout 120
set env(TERM) dump
spawn telnet [lindex $argv 0]
expect "Login:"
send "[lindex $argv 2]+ct80w80h\r"
expect "Password:"
send "[lindex $argv 3]\r"
expect "*@*]*>"
send "/export file=config.rsc \r"
expect "*@*]*>"
send "/tool fetch address=[lindex $argv 1] dst-path=\"[lindex $argv 0].cfg\" src-path=config.rsc mode=ftp upload=yes user=\"user\" password=\"password\"\r"
expect "*@*]*>"
send "quit\r"
expect version 5.45.4
All routeros before 6.49 works fine.

What’s new in 6.49.7 (2022-Oct-11 17:37):

*) system - improved handling of user policies;
*) wireless - fixed disconnection of connected client while running background scan on wAP ac and wAP R ac devices;
*) wireless - fixed missing wireless interface on some RB921GS-5HPacD devices;
Good catch
I thought MT had stopped developing 6.x ![]()
The list of changes certainly doesn’t warrant a new topic announcing new stable release … or does it, Mikrotik? Well, certailny doesn’t touch anything I’m using on my MT devices, so I’ll skip this release unless MT comes up with a different list of changes.
@Jotne, this is what you’d call “development”? It’s bug fixing … don’t get me wrong, it is important, but let’s call it what it is … a maintenance release.
Works good on all our routers in the production networks.
But to be honest, its a sad upgrade, no extra thread and not even the new NetWatch was implemented.
Thats by far the saddest upgrade I have ever seen.
That would be new functionality, certainly not fit for a bug-fix release numbered 6.49.7 … it would IMO warrant at least 6.50, but that’s probably not gonna happen. I fully support MT for their full commitment to bring v7 to decent functionality and stability level.
On a quick note: the time interval between 6.49.6 (released 2022-04-13) and 6.49.7 (released 2022-10-13) is exactly 6 months … the low number of items in change list might indicate that 6.49(.7) is ready to be “upgraded” to long-term release channel.
This is not how to upgrade.
- Upgrade to a version not have any public release.
- Upgrade just some hour after first post about new version.
For a production network.
After any new release, wait some weeks. See what other writes about it on this forum. Do a test on a router not in production with same setup and hardware as in production. Then if all works and no big errors are reported, then you should do the upgrade. And only if new version has some new that you need or a bug fix that helps (could help) you to get a more stable network.
Someone has to be the guinea pig …
