What worked for me was to use Netinstall fro Windows version 6.49.11.
And by magic, everything worked as expected.

Thanks a lot for your support!

My old RB750 router is resurrect!!!!

Today I tried something else, installing openwrt on my RB750 I followed this guidelines: https://openwrt.org/toh/mikrotik/common https://klseet.com/networking/router-firmware/openwrt/openwrt-rb750gl-rb750 and also tried using this files for initializing openwrt: https://openwrt.org/toh/hwdata/mikrot...

So far, I am ou of ideas on what to try next, in this challenge to resurrect it.

The reset pad, which you discovered under ruber foot, has same function as reset button. So keep those pads shorted while applying power (and then for a while more) until netinstall starts to show signs. From own experience I can tell you it's hard to keep pads shorted and plug power at the same ti...

Reuse the case and put in a new RB ? That is a good advice, inly if I can open the case, which I was not able to do yet. :) 20250209_130826.jpg I found another think that might help, under one of the rubber feet, there is a hole and in the hole there is a jumper. I did try to use it and do a Router...

Try again with netinstall. Your settings seem correct, but there are reports that putting a (dumb) switch between the PC and the Routerboard can help in detecting the device (timing problems or whatever). I would add that for such an old board I would try a 10/100 switch, just in case. I did what y...

Try one of the common credentials for digi, maybe - just maybe - they are the same: https://19216811.uno/digi-router-login/ https://www.digi.com/support/knowledge-base/unique-default-passwords I tried all combination possible, nothing works. :( Searching the internet I found that this router type w...

I did try to use netinstall, but the router is not showing at all. I configured my pc Network card to use: IP Address: 192.168.88.2 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Defaul Gateway: 192.168.88.1 Prefered DNS: 192.168.88.1 On neinstall 4.13 I configured Net booting to 192.168.88.3 I disabled all other netwo...

3.0 RC6 Is from 2015, so maybe still too new? Can you try to connect with v2.x via MAC? (of course It cannot connect via IP to 0.0.0.0) So I tried connecting with WinBox 2.2.16 via MAC address, but I get WRONG PASSWORD if I lease password field empty. Same WRONG PASSWORD I get when I try connect wi...

Yikes ! 4.13, that's from ... 2010 :shock: Using MAC address, user=amin, passwd=<blank>, doesn't work ? Since it shows uptime in Winbox, it is doing something and communicating. Maybe Winbox 3.41 is too new for that thing ? You don't happen to have much older versions of Winbox around to try ? But ...

Hi all, I try to resurrect an old RB750 found recently: RB750-DIGI.jpg I performed hard reset on it, via RESET button, but nothing changed. In WinBox it appears like this, with IP 0.0.0.0 : RB750-DIGI-WinBox.png I connect my PC to Port 2 and looked at WireShark messages: RB750-DIGI-WireShark.png Any...
