HW Offloading

Hi, I have an issue on a CRS309 where when I enable HW Offloading on the WAN connection (sfpplus-1 in the attached screenshot), traffic will no longer route. The route shows the 'H' and HW Offloading is successfully enabled and shown as working on all routes, but the connection effectively stops wor...

SFP Temperature is 255C after Router OS upgrade [SOLVED]

Hi, I have 2 SFP modules in 2 different routers. After ugprading both routers to Router OS 7.10 the temperature on both modules which are in different routers is now reported as 255 degrees C. At first it shutdown both interfaces, so I updated the shutdown temperature to 256C. However I still reciev...

CRS309-1G-8S

Hi, I've got a CRS309-1G-8S and it works nicely. I am using it to route, and the connection is PPPoE. It uses about 75-80% CPU at 1Gbps. So I don't think it will do much better. It has twice the resources of the CRS125, and the performance is only marginally better. I also can't overclock it, which ...

Re: Hardware selection

who needs whole preceding post to be quoted to be answered? Use "Post Reply" Yeah, everything has to go through fastpath to get the CRS125 to route acceptably, even then it maxes out around 850Mbps. I'm in NZ and they're doing a deal on 2000/2000 connections, it's the equivalent of 76 EUR...

Re: Hardware selection

ROS v7 brings L3 HW offloading (as in: ASIC routing) on select devices, CRS3xx included. Which means that in certain cases routing and firewalling can be done wirespeed. Have a look at linked document, you should get an idea. Depending on requirements on L3 functions you might be able to find a mod...

Hardware selection

I love the Mikrotik gear. Currently have a CRS125-24G and a HAP AC3 (and about 10 other MT routers spread around family and friends places). Right now, the CRS125 is used as an internet router, as well as switch and just manages to route at ~1Gbps. I want to upgrade our fibre to 2gbps. I'd have 4 de...

Re: CRS226-24G-2S+ Poor routing performance

Yes, this topic scared me when I wanted to upgrade my internet to a supposedly 1Gbps connection, but the posts here are outdated and/or wrong. I'm running a CRS125-24G and for me it routes at 700Mbps WAN to LAN through PPPoE > VLAN > ETHER1 with masquerade NAT. Still has 20% CPU idle, when it's doin...

USB LTE interface dropping out

Hi I have a RB951 with a Vodafone K4201 USB stick connected through USB as an LTE interface. It works beautifully, but after approximately 6 hours, the LTE interface just disappears completely from routerOS. After I re-plug it or perform a USB power reset, or a full reboot, away it goes again normal...

Re: Some switch purchasing assistance please

Okay, so turns out some muppet had the ethernet set to 100mpbs half duplex on the test machine. After changing that, it gets 89-91mpbs. The Fritzbox still slightly outperforms it with 93-94mpbs and I checked all the MTUs on the fritz and set them to be the same on the microtik. So not sure why the m...

Re: Some switch purchasing assistance please

Okay, so I picked up the CRS125-24G-1S-IN Cloud Router Switch. Wasn't great when it restarted itself 3 times on first boot. It seemed to do that on all cold boots. Got it setup - took me an hour or so to get my head around the config and UI. The routing performance is abysmal. You can't really use t...

Some switch purchasing assistance please

Hi Guys, I've been running Cisco equipment very happily until the last few months where we have moved to Fibre internet (200Mbps), I had to switch from the Cisco to some customer router that isn't cutting the mustard. I am looking at purchasing one of these: http://routerboard.com/CRS125-24G-1S-IN a...
