Hi Guys.


I have a new RB 433 UAH that i upgrade the OS and after that it does not boot up any more.

Try with POE and different power supply to make sure power was not the problem.


The RB come up the light shine on the network interfaces but no beep sound come up and then the LED LD504 come on and that is it nothing happen after it.

I also try serial port and nothing :(


I being reading for 2 days and i don't see any way that i can recover this hardware.

Please i really want get this RB up and running .


This is some pic of the board when is stuck.

With serial connection you should be able to reinstall OS with netinstall

I would suggest you should use netinstall to reinstall previous OS and see does unit boot up, and what file did you use for upgrade was it mipsbe version for rb400 series.

It's hard to see why an OS upgrade would affect the bootloader.

Can you show a screenshot of your settings when you try to access the board via its serial port?

Was this your first time upgrading with winbox, did you allow enough time for new OS to install you didn't by any chance remove the power to the board during the upgrade process which can take about 4-5mins, if you did then use a serial cable and use netinstall to recover by reinstalling the OS
