Re: port speed

Just don't use the Wi-Fi. I have mine disabled, too, as I use the more powerful hAP ac model for Wi-Fi. The RB3011 is also ARM, but dual-core instead of quad-core, and it costs more. I think the hAP ac2 is still the best fit. But the RB3011 would be adequate, too. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk

I've had RouterOS default to a 5m lease on DHCP, and this has caused problems with Android and Chromecast devices. Should it? No, but it did.

Increasing the lease time solved that problem.

If you want to keep the config as-is, yes, you'll need a faster router. The hAP ac2 should work nicely for you with its quad-core ARM CPU.

Re: port speed

The RB450G has 5xGbE ports and should be able to route with fast-path at over 600 Mbps. If you don't know what PCQ is, I advise you to ask the person that configured your router.

For those that aren't understanding why this method is easier on the CPU, it's because tracking a connection, and then looking it up in the conntrack table is far faster, and far less CPU-intensive, than deep-inspecting values in the individual packets.

Re: Set Wireless to Station + AP Mode Simultaneous? WISP Client?

I haven't had the problem, but I haven't used it on mAP. In order to do simultaneous station + AP you will need wireless-rep package. The earlier wireless packages do not support this operating mode, and when I've tried in the past the station will work but not broadcast any AP when a Virtual AP is ...

No, probably a disadvantage in performance and/or reliability, actually. Specifically this breaks layer-2 since you can't bridge multiple MAC addresses across station mode per 802.11 spec. So you end up using Station Pseudobridge mode which does a sort of NAT for MAC addresses. WDS avoids all that m...

Re: RB751G-2HnD Transmit Power Level

Alright so if I change Frequency Mode from regulatory-domain to manual-txpower, I can now get up to 27 dBm output power. Unfortunately when I do that, the CCQ plummets to 20% average and the Mikrotik Bandwidth Test goes from 80 Mbps Rx to 6 Mbps Rx. So I'm going to assume the problem with this model...

RB751G-2HnD Transmit Power Level

RB751G规范1000 mW机组输出功率(31 dBm)。However, running RouterOS 6.7 with Tx Power Mode set to Card Rates and Tx Power set to 30 dBm, the Current Tx Power is only 17 dBm. Running in United States regulatory domain, and 1000 mW is max allowable for 2.4 GHz. [admin@rb1.domehq] > interface w...

Re: Problems Chaining 911G-5HPnD by Eth to 751G-2HnD

Well been running v5.26 on both RBs now for two weeks with zero problems. Guess I'm staying in the old release. The killer feature for me on v6 was partitions, really. I probably won't have time to mess with it on v6 again for at least a month. When I do get time, if I feel like it's even worth it, ...

Problems Chaining 911G-5HPnD by Eth to 751G-2HnD

Hi RouterOS Wizards, I have a 751G in simple AP mode. Eth1-5 and WiFi are in Bridged mode. The LAN is plugged into Eth1. Plugged into another of the Eth ports is a 911G, with a L4 license upgrade to run in AP mode, too. The problem is when I'm running RouterOS 6.x (tested with 6.1 all the way to 6.5...

Re: Max Tx Power Not Achievable on RB911G-5HPnD

Nevermind, I just figured it out. But there might be a bug involved here, too? After running a sweeper I noticed my frequency selection never took effect. The lowest channel (#36, 5180 MHz) was always being used, regardless what the RB was configured to use. Turns out, when DFS Mode is set to anythi...

Max Tx Power Not Achievable on RB911G-5HPnD (SOLVED-ish)

The RB911G-5HPnD product page states the radio has a 1000 mW output power (+30 dBm). Couple problems here: * 802.11a/n 5 GHz operation in the United States specifies a maximum power level of 50 mW (+17 dBm), 250 mW (+24 dBm), or 1000 mW (+30 dBm) for different channels ( U-NII 1/2/3 ) in the band, a...

Re: v6.2 released

Running RB751G on v6.1 with firmware 3.02. Upgrade to v6.2 works, but trying to upgrade attempt to firmware 3.09 causes the RB to hang on reboot. Ethernet activity lights flash but not the Wi-Fi activity light, can't login, and the Ethernet switch doesn't function. Hard power cycling recovers the RB...

Re: RB911G-5HPnD LEDs?

In RouterOS v6.1 LED presets start working after the reboot. This will be improved in the next version to make them work immediately. Alright, did the reboot and they work now as you advised. However, two things: 1. I was hoping to get a meter that would use all five LEDs to scale based on throughp...

RB911G-5HPnD LEDs?

I have upgraded to RouterOS 6.1, firmware 3.07, and an L4 license.

Currently running in simple bridge AP mode.

I'm unable to get the five user LEDs to do anything, no matter which settings I use. Anyone have a similar problem or resolution?

Thanks!

Re: New AP setup won't connect to network

当您创建虚拟美联社实例并设置它s wlan-master to wlan1, etc., you're only doing that so it inherits the radio properties. This doesn't automatically bridge the new virtual interface. You need to go to the Bridge setup and Add a Port, selecting the new Virtual AP interface. Then the...
