Great news: Terragraph

This is competition to fiber. High speed, higher reliability through mesh. MT: I want it now.

It's available for a while already. And it's not competition, given the limited range. more like "last mile" solution.

It is announced for a while, not available. With this it is possible to jump from house to house with high speed. Given the high bandwidth several hops are possible.

There is no mention of mesh in that post. More likely, last mile as PtMP, especially with their last innovation: 180° coverage with single antenna https://mikrotik.com/product/wap_60gx3_ap
And I meant that the wireless wire kit is available for a while.

Terragraph is mesh. So if MT does Terragraph ...

I am interested in this as well. I'm hoping to do something like a mesh network with the wAP 60G as seen in the attached diagram. Do you guys know if this is possible today with HWMP+ or other protocols?

@st91ang , interesting diagram. I have been thinking about doing something like this as well. How many wAP's do you have on each home? what are your distances? how well does this work and what kind of speed per home are you seeing?

Riccochet did that in the late 1990's and early 2000's somehow successfully.
But at some point you hit a speed limit due to internal interference and multiple hop latency. Think of something like 1/8'th of a P2P link.

I have not actually implemented this but was theorizing how I could serve a couple of neighborhoods I've been looking at. I was thinking 100Mbps packages for the customers due to all of the repeating of signal required.

4 months later on and we still don't seem to have any details about a MikroTik Terragraph radio.

No release date, no price, no specs.

Is this vapourware or will be getting details soon?

While Terragraph is still in development -
Similar networks can be already made by using our devices, as explained by Attila Bologh in MUM Hungary 2019
https://mum.mikrotik.com/presentations/ ... 506180.pdf
This approach is a bit different - currently unavailable feature of AP to AP connectivity has been worked around by using multiple devices for each task. In theory this should provide more throughput as there is extra radio part doing one job (Client or AP), possible multiple frequency use and possibility to do some additional alignment for each separate device.
I would still relay on L2 bridges between nodes with RSTP instead of OSPF to speed up topology changes from link statuses.
To limit device connectivity - simple interface disable on AP will prevent it from reconnecting.
Keep in mind that some of features for this to work are currently only available in beta releases.

EXCELLENT presentation by Attila Bologh -- business opportunities galore --- very entrepreneurial.

Siklu Terragraph is on the way
