For these days I was at war with RouterBoard very much. It is very difficult to draw exact conclusions, but I can tell something. You setup the device, you adjust it. It seems, it works. But after some days either weeks or monthes it can unexpectedly create a serious problem. It is necessary to thro...

The description and the request are not fully clear, I doubt someone will answer to you...

This is a correct answer.

Oh from 5.26 to 6.11 it;s a very long road :) Downgrade isn't a viable solution.. 4.17, 5.26 and 6.11 (o! 6.12 now) are the only versions, which you can download today from official site. I would like to get version 6.10, but it is inaccessible for downloading. In any case yesterday I was connected...

I'm on ros 6.11

By the way, my Mikrotik with version worked with interruptions.
5.26 was more stable.
Can you try other fw version?

Ok. Check that your AP supports the Multi-SSID mode. Create VLAN on the local interface of RB. Configure VLAN as a guest network, and the main local interface - as a network for a family. Configure Multi-SSID on AP. You'll get two WiFi nets on one channel. Don't forget to make the rule to block acce...

So you're saying that those disconnections are normal? The problem is that machine-router pptp link remains established, only winbox reports that router has beed disconnected. "machine-router pptp link remains established" not means that there was not a break in data transmission. (1) You...

I use "the same similar".

Ok, google and short phrases.

PPTP tunnel can withstand fairly long break in communication, 10 seconds and more.
Time counter continues counting. But at this time packets are not transmitted.
Winbox session during this period may be interrupted.

The pptp vpn connection remains up since in router i see the total uptime keep going forward, also ping from machine-router has 0 loss.. so the pptp connection remains established I am not sure that understood your configuration. I build the tunnel from the computer to removed Mikrotik. The tunnel ...

Is it acceptable if both WiFi networks will divide one channel or it is necessary to use different channels? In the first case you do not need an additional AP, but total bandwith will be lower.

Dude, when we're connecting with winbox to the router from the pptp vpn connection we have random frequent disconnections while directly from a port its ok, what part its hard to understand? I really misunderstood you, sorry. Today I not absolutely understand this part: while directly from a port i...

It is nearly impossible to replicate such setup here, maybe you need to contact support of the phone manufacturer? It seems the other models work fine, just one of them doesn't. Certainly, I asked about it at Panasonic forums and several Panasonic dealers. Nobody knows. It is clear that nobody will...

I'll say it again: when pptp tunnel is established all traffic from your computer is routed into this tunnel. You can do trace google.com to check it. In this case you can ping (via tunnel) external address of your RouterBoard, but: 1. now you access to your RouterBoard from new address, configured ...

it means the device works perfectly with 6.11 doh... It means the device works perfectly in some cases . It does not mean the device works perfectly in all cases . Sometimes the last version is not the most stable version. It was a sense of my question. But ver 6.11 is not acceptable for me. (((

v6.11 with 56 wireless clients (phones) connected and speedtest show 30mbps on the phone...

And what it means?

By wireless have you point all the chains on your routerboard? Yes. At this moment there is RB with firmware 5.26 and all this chains are marked. I cannot check now configuration for ver. 6.11, but I suppose there are the same settings. In both cases, I have not changed these settings and there are...

Ok. I've described this problem shortly in "Routerboard Hardware". I'll describe it in more detail here. Sorry, but there will be a lot of words. We have two offices, connected with IPSEC VPN tunnel over Internet. Before the tunnel was formed by two Cisco PIX. There is a Panasonic PBX in o...

IMHO It occurs because in case of pptp connection all traffic goes into the tunnel. You can try to connect again winbox to the internal address of the RB.

What version of firmware is most reliable for this device?

With the same configuration:

5.26 - RB works stablly, but the traffic of some devices stablly drops.

6.11 - All devices works, but communication often interrupts.

I ask to excuse my bad English. I have a brief experience of successful application of RB 450. Now we bought 2 pieces of RG-951. On the first installed firmware v 5.26. I configured the router with NAT and IPSEC VPN. At first sight everything works good. But one model of IP Phone (Panasonic) works t...
