Winbox wont always connect, usaully can still HTTP

Mon Sep 17, 2012 11:34 pm

For the last few week almost daily I have 2 out of 7 RouterBoards that will not respond to Winbox. I can usally still use IE and open the web page. But at times they stop responding to those connected to the hotspot on them.

What more is strange I have 1 of the 2 in the middle of this line of 7. so Im bridging 2 backhauls over it, and yet when the hotspot stops working, and Winbox wont let me login, I can still winbox into the next rb on the otherside of it?!

I dont know where to look for the problem, even changed out the RB and the new one started doing the same.. ARP issue?

What can I use to look for the issue?

Are you trying to connect to the mac address or the ip address?

I have the same problem but with x86 server.
I can't acces to it using winbox by means of IP, but only using webfig.
So if I try to access using MAC with winbox I have not problem.....
I've sended a support output file to mikrotik and I'm waiting their answer..

I have the same issue, there is too much private info that comes from that.

I have 7 RouterBoards on the same bridged network. all are setup the same but different IPs everything worked fine for the longest time. then all of a sudden 2 started spazing out.. And its so far been the same 2, I changed out the Mikrotik hardware and it happened again. I even changed the IP thinking maybe my Fiber provider screwed with the routes or somthing but same issue.

Do you have requested the mikrotik support?

sparrow : When yours does it, does the RB ever lock up for the users connected to it? Mine are complaining their connection just stops.

No, this is not my scenario, I haven't access only to server using winbox with IP....the users continue to surf good...

I just started experiencing the same issue on a 450G running ROS 5.19.

Remedied by disabling winbox service in Webfig interface the re-enabling.

What ROS are you guys running?

I have both 5.19 and 5.20.. issue with both.

Are you using Ubiquiti radios at all in your network?

I did do an Disable/Enable but within a day it was doing the same thing.

Yes we are using Ubiquity. A couple of Ubiquity NS M2's and an Outdoor Unifi with other Unifis behind another MT Router on that network.

Sorry to hear it repeated the issue. Will keep a watch put for it.

Getting the same on an RB750, winbox freezes, webfig still available, however now and then the passwords stop being accepted in webfig as well. Have to reboot the board before I can access again.

Will be upgrading to 5.20 this evening, on 5.11 at the moment, but nothing in the changelog referring to this so it's a shot in the dark.

anyone noticing your free memory is being depleated daily? seems once it gets down near 2m the router locks up. Anyone else noticing this?

WinBox not working - try this http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php ... 18#p337918

memory is consumed - turn off Web Proxy and use latest stable relese version. If prolem still happens - make supout.rif and send to support as "memory leak bug report".
