Supply problems appear to be getting worse

Fri May 20, 2022 3:27 pm

Want a RB260GSP ASAP and most UK suppliers are out of stock with my main supplier saying August! Yikes... so heads up for anyone in UK planning Mikrotik install - leads times are horrible.

Equal here, on Italy
But do you really think that only MikroTik has this problem?
But "where do you live"?...

Got a reply from a tier1 firewall provider pretty much telling me don't bother order physical hardware this year.

From their smallest smb branch box to their mega iron $100k box no orders will be shipped this year.

No, of course chip supply problems are hitting everyone but Mikrotik seems to hit harder. UBNT kit is difficult but weeks, not month lead times.

What FW provider was this ?

Does it start with an F or a P ?

Took nearly 9 months for me to procure 4x G4 Domes.
Everything is affected at this stage.
