Re: 802.11ah products in the future?

I have almost forgot a step. /s

Remember to save the pcb antenna from lora wap enclosure to create a battery powered HaLow-to-WiFi gateway/access point
Use big enough enclosure to fit all the components and add a red LED to know when it is powered.

Re: 802.11ah products in the future?

... Brilliant! I was wondering how I could get these HaLow bridges glued to a Mikrotik and that's a bit cleaner than I was considering! I haven't tried interfacing with the onboard serial (for sending the config AT commands) yet but I'd expect a TTL serial to USB adapter would allow for remote chan...

Re: rtl8168

I am trying to install RTL8168 card in mini PCIe slot of the wAP LR8 kit(MIPSBE) instead of the LoRa module. Id does not show additional interface when inserted (Tested with RouterOS 6.49.7 and 7.7) While I can see the card under System > Resources > PCI Vendor ID: 0x10ec Device ID: 0x8168 nothing h...

Re: How to covert int to hex type value and save it in a string? [SOLVED]

Is there a convenient way to convert in the opposite direction. From ASCII 2byte number to signed integer? for example 0xFF85 to -123 Or at least some documentation regarding num and tonum functions beyond their wiki found it fem minutes after posting question here (HexToNum and many others) https:/...

Re: Metarouter images

Did anyone managed to make a stable minimal metarouter with mqtt broker (OpenWrt or other). Although last mention of it was 5 years ago. Now with the arrival of Mikrotik KNOT would really make sense as an all in one home automation device. The problem seams to be, that it has only 16MB of flash and ...

Re: Suggestions

Was there any consideration/plans of creating a Mikrotik lite SoM MODULE? eg. intended for system integrators, that in core has something like map lite/RB931-2nD/(or even Hap AC lite) without the enclosure, antennas(use uFL), transformers or connectors but with RouterOS. Made with industrial compone...

Re: hAP lite

@rrwakc: no metarouter option is available in Winbox for RB-941-2nd-tc. I checked with my unit. It's also been mentioned earlier in this thread iirc. That post was for the older version(without -tc) and I was hoping they changed it for the new version. I wanted to be able to create a travel router ...

Re: hAP lite

Has anyone checked if the new RB-941-2nd-tc also have option for metarouter removed in winbox. I have ordered mine and still waiting for it to arrive so can't check jet. I know that flash and ram are limited on this one. But for basic openwrt 3MB of flash and 8mb ram is enough. And since router OS w...
