Hi! I have a RB450G which had 3.22 andI tried to upgrade it, from 3 to 4, 4 to 5 worked find.
On 5 I still had the old upgrade page open which actually was still accessable and triggered the upgrade.
After that the device went into a boot loop.
I tried to the Netinstall v6.42.3 on a windows 7 computer I had lying around, but I did not succeed.
I could see that port 67 was open and I could see on wireshark was seeing bootp requests from the router,
but I could not see the device popping up in the netinstall. I tried disabling all other interfaces, add a firewall rule
for the application, fully disable the firewall, closed all other applications, rebooted the machine, ran the
Netinstall as administrator, ... and sure the the 192.168.88.2 was statically configured and 192.168.88.3 was
set up as the cilent ip but I never succeeded.
I would assume its still something on the old windows machine, so if possible I would not like to use it.
As I am mainly working with Linux/Mac os, are there any other options? I tried to set up my own bootp+tftp server
pointing to the routeros-mipsbe-6.42.3.npk image. I see the file gets transferred but then it also just restarts,
but at least I get a file transfered, so if one has some inside on how to set it up?
