Hi, In my case, setting up a common security profile fixed it and both WPA2 and WPA3 work fine interface/wifiwave2/security/print detail Flags: X - disabled 0 name="common-auth" authentication-types=wpa2-psk,wpa3-psk passphrase="xxx" wps=disable What I hate in ax3 is poor 2Ghz p...
One Final note for the Evening. I tested 3 more "legacy" devices. A Wii U (b/g/n) - a PS3 (B/G) and a hAP AC Wii U - Worked Fine PS3 - worked fine - annoying as I was hoping this would bee like the 3DS - potentially proving the bug the hAP AC was an odd one. While in b/g/n mode - worked wh...
ok, so first round of testing done with New 3DS. Here are the base settings - nothing special /interface wifiwave2 channel add frequency=2412-2472 name=2ghz-channel width=20/40mhz add band=5ghz-ax frequency=5150-5895 name=5ghz-channel width=20/40/80mhz /interface wifiwave2 security add authenticatio...
In principle wifiwave2 setting of, say, band="2GHz-ax", will support older technology generations (b, g, n). In legacy driver it was possible to disable older technologies, but this doesn't seem to be possible (for now) in wifiwave2. It's best to leave "supported-rates" at defau...
So, I finally saw the news, UNII-4 support has just come to 7.8beta2, so 5850-5895 is available soon for hAP AX devices, if you wanna go beta (or wait for release I guess). This means you could go 5825 channel without selecting a centre channel. Yay - I guess (about bloody time IMO)
Oh, and sorry, forgot to mention... I don't particularly want to drop the 2ghz wifi back to"n" permanently either, as sometimes my AX devices will connect to 2ghz, for better range and whatnot. 2ghz AX is Amazing, honestly thought 2ghz was dead with AC not getting an update - but here we a...
Have had a bit of a dig, but come up empty - so am putting it out there. Have a new AX3, 2nd time messing with WifiWave2 - and am having issues with an older client devices connecting to the AP/Router. Have set up wifi fully "AX" mode, but using wpa2 and ccmp (aes) encryption in conjunctio...
Oh, and as for the channel numbers (36, 100, 102, 155, etc) they are somewhat meaningless. Generally the 40 and 80 mhz channe numbers are not "read" bu devices. Most devices I have come across read the 20 mhz channels and give you a representation from there. An example would be channel 15...
Going off of old wifi configs, 5825 is "too high" on Mikrotik devices for 80mhz band. If using this channel without setting center channel to a lower frequency, 5795 for example, the router assumes that the selected channel is the base frequency and goes up from there (Ceee in legacy drive...
Hey Team Am currently having a shit fight after coming back to look at Branding our routers. Every time I try to upload a file to the tool under "My Account" (https://mikrotik.com/client/branding) - i get the error "Empty file name!" Does not matter the file type or category - th...
Would like to make a request regarding Dude Probes of SNMP. Have a Function that reports Temperature of a Switch. When switch exceeds certain Temperature then reports as outage.

Have been Struggling with this issues for months - and have found my reason... but it's not a happy situation. Have CHR with 4gb RAM and 4 Cores - nothing over the top. Issue arises when i have Dude trying to reconnect to multiple ROS devices at the same time - CPU perfs out on one core, and as the...
Sorry for the necrotic Post - but if anyone catches - need more info. Cheers rextended and aoakeley for providing info - but Actually needed to know one more thing - looking back in now that I have 5 Mins. Are you using distibuted Agents - or all to one server I have seen in another post that Rex al...
For anyone Interested. Did not resolve the issue. Built a fresh Dude on V7.4 and it works well - have a daily backup (will delete of oldest backup) and weekly upload to Backup server. These all run through and the Disk Space has stayed a constant 59+ GB free after several nonths - and manually delet...
Have just recently rebuilt our Dude - V7.4 - and have noticed an issue that has actually plagued us for a long time, but we misdiagnosed it. Just to pre qualify - Dude on CHR - P1 License, 4 Xeon Silver vCPU @ 2.1ghz, 2Gb Ram (generally 1gb free). 64GB hdd, 59.2GB free (now actually removing data - ...
So - got a curly one. Have a Dude CHR built off the OVA template on XCP-NG. Has run "well enough" - but noticed after a couple of weeks away that some of my Functions had disappeared recently. Digging in - I found my 64GB "disk" has 0B free, and that it appears that Dude is begin...
Apparently agent "server" is the default.. so I have no clue, sorry. Thanks for trying. It prompted me to have another closer look at what was going on. I found the solution.... There were some NAT and Mangle rules I had created years ago to enable The Dude to talk to some remote mikrotik...
Have a new BGP Gateway Stack - Access Switch, Auth server and Border router - CCR 1072 x2 and a CRS317. Upgraded as our new provider advertises 1M+ routes. Was Buit and tested on 7.1.3/7.1.5.

OK, for more fuel to the flames - I found why case 2 "works" - but doesnt - but does The situation where the ECMP was running - but onlu one route was active - was only partially true. The secondary route had injected itself into the primary - so WAS ECMP - tested and was multipathing rand...
I am here because it does apper to be working for me... in ONE case... and I am not sure how. It's also "Almost" working in a second case - but the secondary route is still blue - even though both are stating ECMP (+ in status) In both of these cases - they are iBGP - but i cannot confirm ...
I think it is also related to the fact the BGP service was re-written by Mikrotik for version 7 and there was an oversight or they ran out of time? I like that - ran out of time... I started in the industry just after v6 came out - and they have been promising v7 since then... they have had plenty ...
Hello. I continue to use ROS 6.45.9. Newer version The Dude does not work well. Only on this version is the Dude server permanently connected to the MikroTik routers through the Dude client. The version above is used to connect Winbox. If you update the version, then the Dude server is constantly c...
Hey All Just to add more info on the stack. I can confirm the same issue. I am trying to run ipv6 also - and will note that disable/enable on EITHER the v6 or v4 address list will rectify the issue. I tried a disable/re-enable on another address list and... nothing happened I then tried disable/re-e...
So - I like to have use-peer-dns - however not all connectiuons are created equal and have some sites with ADSL and Satellite (Satellite FAST - but Latency is huge - DSL Slow - but lower latency) Was considering building a script to check which connection has "Primary DNS" at any given tim...
IDK if anything is getting observed here anymore - But I have a request. Route Table selection under Bandwidth Test Ping has this function and is fine for a quick check of "Up/Down" - but does not show potential throughput. Yes, I can add a specific route to a specific server - but often a...
I would say that your bridge is not configured correctly. if the First MAC does not Match the actual MAC - then the lease is being handed to the First MAC - and it is up to that device to relay it. I have the same problem - and it is the "skywirelessconnect" unit that is the problem for me...
I cannot confirm the version you speak of being the start of issues, as I have similar problems on it, but also had problems on 6.43.4 (i think) and 6.47.9. For me - the dude client crashed/froze/timeout due to winbox hammering one CPU - the reason for that was Dude connecting to my ROS devices (the...

Hi. Am trying to build a redundant network using RSTP or MSTP. Situation stands as 4 Routers and 2 Switches (designed to Run 2R + 1S SxS, redundant and HA) - with each Switch connected to all the Routers, and a single cross connect between the Switches. Testing has been a nightmare as I kept getting...

Hey Bud Just noticed a problem with one of my scripts, and decided to have a look around here. I Had your issue for a while.

Sooooo... I see Mikrotik have added a Data limit thing in the Latest Versions of ROS - YAY However it is still lacking one key feature - Removal of accounts @ Time of Day e.g. no matter what time someone logs on, all data reset @ say 9 am. Also, in implementing this - they have broken my Script :( ...

I need to Get some into on this one. Please confirm my Suspicions :) 1.

God - i'm so late with the Replies - but my comment to you sir would be that there isn't a memory "Leak" as such... but the is more features, which take more memory, and if you don't increase the device's memory, and the devices "Out of Memory" minimum conditions remain the same ...
And this is the one place i forgot to add the Link to the Scrip I Created - Sorry Guys. http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=99515 This will allow Trial access with set data limits. The Code for the Multiple HS version of the script has been in production for months now - no issues :D ...

So... Have been using these units to awesome effect as Outdoor Switches - But the one time I try to use as a Core, wha-wahhhhhhh. Wasted 4 Hours trying to diagnose my pppoe server - turns out the ODPB has only some ability as a router - as it can't seem to get the internet in on it's own. Scenario. ...
Okay, I got it working. Docmarius, Ubnt has just release a firmware that allows you to have management of the USW on a VLAN, thus creating a trunk port. But I think you have to have untagged DHCP on first to associate it to the Controller software and then you can change it to the management vlan. ...

No, you just need to switch from regular wds to mesh-wds and that is all, it is not required to use /mesh. Only thing is that you need to upgrade your all the WDS links as WDS mesh isn't compatible with regular WDS. Thanks Uldis - Finally Found this Thread... is an issue I have had intermittently f...

Sorry Phendry, you are 100% correct... A roll back destroys config and makes a mess. Perhaps a new "Rollback" version would be a quick way to get the punters happy (potentially a v6.99 say, that "upgrades the router" to a point where it is at 5.21 or less) and a disclaimer on all...
If you're sending users to a remote page anyway (e.g. a web server where you collect their email), you can use the web server to generate a new account via the API protocol, and then redirect them to the hotspot, with the new username and password attached to the URL. The new user should be given t...

google uses https by default, so you can expect every user to be putting load on that. It is also very likely that they may have other tabs opened that could have many using https which could cause hang. I really dont know your network architecture whether the APs are connected to a central gateway...
Well, Thank you for your points - I will look into them further and see if there is something specific to be drawn from this. However, as I had said previously - I have 532's that have been going for years with dozens/hundreds of connections per day - no issues. It may be due to a lot more websites ...
HTTPS uses CPU to do encryption such that even a brute force attempt on SSH can be CPU consuming unless the CPU has hardware encryption support which routerOS uses. What routerboard are you using? How many clients do you serve at a time and how often is HTTPS used on your network in terms of bandwi...
