Worked for 9 years already w/o any (well almost) problems.
I've upgraded RouterOS to the latest stable 6.49.7
Before that, there was 6.47.7 as far as I remember (obviously cannot check it).
After the upgrade, I was able to log into the web interface of the router, but after a little while, it became inaccessible for configuration. Other things like WLAN, outboutd PPPoE - all work and I have Internet connection in the house.
SYMPTOMS:
When accessing 192.168.88.1, after long timeout period, I get an error message in the browser:
Code: Select all
dial tcp 192.168.88.1:80: getsockopt: connection timed out
the ssh connection disconnects immediately with
Code: Select all
Received disconnect from 192.168.88.1 port 22:3:
Disconnected from 192.168.88.1 port 22
And most strangely, I cannot reset the box. Whatever I do as per the instructions - unplug the power and plug it back with reset pressed - wait for 5/10/30 seconds - the result is the same, the box doesn't boot itself (there is no double-beep and no interfaces seems to be up - Ethernet light is on when connecting the cable, but my laptop can't obtain an IP and communicate).
If I unpower/power it back, the old config is back and everything is the same - WLAN is up, Internet active and so on.
Basically I can use it, but can't configure anymore.
Any advices are appreciated, because the only way I see now is to wait untill it dies (which might well be another 10 years) or ISP changes any configuration, so I can't use it anymore.
Thanks!
