RouterOS General

This feature has been removed due to severe stability problems. It was only present in one beta version.

Good Evening.

Sorry to flog a dead horse here, but is there any hope of this feature coming back?

Hello,

I’m very interested in this feature too. Do you have any plans about it? If you need someone for test, I can help you.

If you need a USB over TCP Solution today …

I highly recommend W&T → https://www.wut.de/e-53www-15-inus-000.php
Use there Product all the time in 24/7 environment and they have PoE-Powering options

They are not cheap, but they are very good quality!

Hopefully one day we will get USB pass-through into containters, so it will be possible to interface with any devices and run USB over IP server if one wants that…

It’s a bit high for personal use indeed.

I tried OpenWRT on my HAP AC2 as described here: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/services/usb.iptunnel
I was able to connect my USB device, but hen it disconnected after a few seconds, and it happened each time I tried.
Seems that this functionality is broken for HAP AC2 OpenWRT.

So, my only hope is Mikrotik team will implement this.

Speaks to lack of credibility and lack of transparency…
+1 for truth let alone the functionality.
