MikroTik

programming up a new rb411 with 5.1 on it.


Was all done, and was setting up WPA and things starting acting weird. I rebooted and my interfaces went away, there is nothing in the interface list. But there is still information in the DHCP server, routes tabs and such, under interface, it says unknown. Also, the SSID still shows as an available network on the wireless side.

In the Interfaces window, I get an ERROR: Timeout

Did a 'lil more work on this today, I had to install 4.17 on it to get it going.

Then after working on it a bit, the interfaces went away again. Took out the wireless card and had the Ethernet interface back.

Installed a different XR2 card and had both interfaces back. Then setup WPA and all the interfaces disappeared again after several minutes. I have to install a different XR2 to get both interfaces back.

Both interfaces seem to disappear after several minutes after I enable WPA. Not sure why why this would cause this behavior.

Settings:
Name: Profile1
Mode: dynamic keys
Authentication types: WPA PSK and WPA2 PSK checked
Unicast Cyphers: tkip checked
Group Cyphers: tkip checked
Have an 8 character password all lower case in both WPA and WPA2 preshared keys
Group key update: 00:05:00
Management Protection: allowed
Management Protection key: n/a

What am I doing wrong?

Oh and BTW, the laptop will not connect with WPA enabled.
