at last someone changed announcement

believewireless · Wed Dec 13, 2006 9:04 pm

We installed it on an RB112 and it kills it. It's up and running but you can't winbox or telnet in. When you try, it reboots.

almost the same in normal computer

Thu Dec 14, 2006 8:21 am

what do you mean "almost"? anyone else has this problem? believewireless what do you see when you console to it?

janisk · Thu Dec 14, 2006 10:19 am

i will make wild guess, that beta4 uses little more RAM as previous versions - so, when you login, there is no ram left and ROS crash.

on RB 112 try installing minimal amount of packages, like system, routerboard, routing-test

I have it on a SuperMicro dual Xeon.. 1GB ram..

Load and run fine.. Even seems to find all 4 cores reliably..

Running well on a WRAP. Time to play!

i see 100 cpu load, high ping times even on ethernet side, strange reboots when changing wireless tx power, 1 minute reboots, etc. 4 routers upgraded - 2 runs almmost ok, 2 downgraded.

well, I've tried to connect to it via telnet and winbox simultaneously. And it still runs fine. CPU usage about 5%. It has basic configuration though.

edit:
Do you have wireless enabled? I just noticed, when clients connect, cpu usage goes to 100% and telnet dies.

It looks like wireless is totally useless in this version. We upgraded a 2.9.38 PtP link to Beta4 and it drops packets like crazy. No configuration changes other than upgrading.

The problem appears to be on the AP side and not the station side.

make supout.rif, send to support. we have not seen anything similar anywhere. if this is a specific configuration issue, we would like the file to be able to fix it.

Mon Dec 18, 2006 3:57 pm

this is a problem in beta4, we have already fixed it in beta5. we will do more extensive testing on all the routerboard models before releasing the next beta.

High Regards,

Wed Dec 20, 2006 8:39 am

have you even tried it in earlier betas? the feature was already improved as promised

Wavelan · Wed Dec 20, 2006 9:42 am

Not yet, the latest we try is BETA-3.

I would test BETA-4 soon though, but i'm think
the feature aren't improvised yet, because t
isn't mentioned in Changelog

As normis once said, not all the changes are mentioned in changelog. Just most important ones.

janisk · Wed Dec 20, 2006 10:22 am

i would add, that you can always install new beta and try settings you need. so, i always know - if problem that disturbed is solved or no, i do that even it is mentioned in change log.

We tried installing Beta4 on a Via Mini-ITX 933MHz motherboard and it halts and reboot on startup. (256MB RAM) Beta3 installs and boots just fine.

believewireless · Thu Dec 28, 2006 1:30 am

We tested the wireless on a PC platform today and it worked fine. So the wireless problem looks like it's related to routerboards only.

believewireless · Thu Dec 28, 2006 6:14 am

Read from the top down and you'll see it. Beta4 causes packet loss and several second outages using a RB532 and wireless.

BurstNET · Sun Dec 31, 2006 6:18 am

Downgrading on PC's from 3.0Beta4 to 2.9.38 has caused 3 of 6 systems to be corrupted. Had to reinstall, saving configs, to get them back up. System would not load anything at all, and just stated over and over again to contact MT support.

believewireless · Sat Jan 06, 2007 1:25 am

We put Beta5 on an RB112 and it appears to be working just fine.
