Re: 📣 WinBox 4 is here 📣

Nice to see native Linux finally.

My comments:

1. Bring back TABS!
2. Allow me to change key bindings (I want to use ESC to close windows not CMD+W)

Regards,
Boris.

Not sure what effect "Use Network APN" has, but I unchecked this option in "LTE APNs" and icmp is working.

Re: Enable multiple firewall rules based on find in script [SOLVED]

That depends on what other comments you have in your firewall rules. When there are no other comments with ddns in them you can use: [find comment~"ddns_"] But of course that will fail when there is also a ddns_3 or extra_ddns_2 or something like that. This works fine. I have only two rul...

Re: Mesh for 2g and 5g Wifi on same LAN with 3 hAP ac3 [SOLVED]

Your setup is not mesh, mesh is when APs use same radio for both offering service to clients and for backhauling (connecting towards upstream). In your case it's simple: configure all APs with identical wireless security profiles and same SSIDs. And configure them to simply bridge wireless with wir...

You can't set gain for built-in antenna. This option is for devices where you attach external antenna. This product has no external antenna connector.

to answer your question any unit with an RX in the -50's then you need to turn down the tx power of the one it's talking to, Chance are you will need to turn down the tx power on them all The company that installed two links tested them yesterday.

Re: Bonding two Dynadish 5 WiFi links

Well with a receive level in the -50's you need to turn back the tx a little, They are screaming at eachother .
Which one? I'm still waiting for guys that installed this link to come and check this problem.
I see on all four Dynadishes Tx Power Mode: default.

Re: Bonding two Dynadish 5 WiFi links

Quick thoughts, I'd say you could turn down the TX power level's a bit to bring RX into the -60's. Have you checked to ensure there is enough physical separation between the dynadishs? Have you checked they are not on the same or very close channels (I.e Overlapping). The poor CCQ is the problem. I...

Re: Bonding two Dynadish 5 WiFi links

you must test final client(pc) to client(pc), testing is cpu hungry and running it on the same mikrotik device will not show real link results since cpu is used for generating traffic and the remaining for routing it. I did in first run. It was really slow. We have ordered new RouterBOARD 3011UiAS-...

No, it depends on your network layout which you (need to) know by yourself. Maybe you do not want to route these VLAN's but rather bridge them, in which case you want to create a bridge with both VLAN interfaces in it (without address). This is something you need to design before smacking a new dev...
