hAP issue

I have just been building my scripts for the hAP (RB951Ui-2nD)

Initially i was trying this on 6.3.1 tried 6.29.1 with same problem

There seems to be a serious issue with this router,
/system reset-configuration keep-users=yes no-defaults=yes skip-backup=yes run-after-reset="scriptnamehere.rsc"
This just deletes the script and never runs anything in it and does the reset.

I assume there was some kind of error in my script so i made a 1 line script changing the identity of the router and still doesn't apply anything.

Can anyone from MT confirm this, i would really like to start rolling these out and this is a major issue for bulk deployment.

please check if you can execute the script manually when there is no config on the board as maybe you have some error in the script.

Yes my script runs fine using that method

When running it from the reset menu it deletes everything on the filesystem, which is not normal.

I've noticed the same - saved exports getting deleted. Thought I must be crazy for a minute there.

Also, the option for the interesting blue WLAN LED is no longer available for configuration after an update to 6.31

Yea i had to take it back down to 6.29.1 to to get the WLAN led back

Love this router otherwise, really needs sorting

Similar issues. The blue wireless light disappeared when updating to 6.32.1 and when resetting the router back to no settings any saved .rsc files disappear.

I recently purchased a usb cellular modem stick and put it into an old RB751U. Worked like a charm. Just purchased another to use in a new RB951Ui-2nD and it doesn't even see it.

No?

You dont sell RB951-2n any more and these dont work how they should, kind of in between a rock and hard place guys.

Would be nice if you even acknowledge the problem

I'm not 100% sure, but I belive you need to place files youbwajtbto survive a reboot in the /flash dir

Yes, devices with 16MB SPI flash will remove files that are outside the Flash folder.

I know it is an old post but if it can help some users :
If you wanna make a script that works regardless the routerboard model and is stored even after reboot (which allows you to .. run it after a reset), simply always store them in a folder called "flash" :-]
