Please only look at the brand new hapAX3 if you are interested in getting an MT device with wifi.
It may be sometime before its available as it was just announced the other day but its is the model you definitely want to get if doing both routing and wifi in one unit.
I would give the same advice to my mother and daughters.............. and I would tell my enemies to get any older version of wifi on mikrotik. :-)

If you cannot wait, then MT may not be for you there is shortage of products all the way round.
What is your ISP speed now and what do you think it will be in 3-5 years.
If you will be at 1 gig then look at the RB4011 or better at the same price point the new RB5011 (better future proofing).
If you will have less than 1gig for the long term, then look at the HEXS and get a separate business class WIFI6 Access point from any vendor . I am partial to what I have which works.


Check stock at for example
- https://www.ispsupplies.com/brands/mikrotik USA
https://www.balticnetworks.com/en-ca/co ... =grid-view USA
- https://www.streakwave.com/mikrotik US/AUS/NZ
- https://www.getic.com/shop/mikrotik-ethernet-routers LATVIA
https://www.shop.wirelessnetware.ca/ Canada ( AND THEY HAVE NEW PRODUCTS LISTED, which is great they are ON THE BALL but doesnt mean available listed at $135 US not bad at all).

That's right, it's not the first time...
If I'm on doubt, I'll double check later, if the post has been modified for add some week later later spam links, or added a hidden signature with spam links...

So far no one has asked me what is (or solved) Vld4UmVHUkdhelJUTTJzOQ== in my signature ;)

My first guess would be base64-encoded contact info or first step for finding a treasure. But it doesn't look much better after decoding.

As for finding spammers, I know it's not something you can do yourself if you don't have access to webserver (someone from MikroTik could do it), but simplest way would be a script that would check forum's database for latest edited posts and look if they contain links. It would serve spammers on a silver platter.

Maybe you found the right path, and you had to insist...

For the 2nd point, I manage as I can, changing the appearance of the forum with FoxReplace which helps me find hidden links and other things...
What is missing is the notice that the post has been modified, it is missing right in the phpbb.
If the post is put back as unread... bingo...
