i have experienced a strange problem with my routeros for the latter part of today.

hotspot users will be browsing alright but all of a sudden all Tx Rate drops to zero for all users
even though the Rx rate will be showing activity.

when this happens no one is able to use the internet interestingly when i restart the routeros, which
is installed on a pc, everything works fine for a while then it happens again.

what could be my problem?

thanks in advance

Do you send syslogs to yourself to monitor it?
Now everything that gets logged (all rules in firewall, errors, reboots etc, will show up in syslog). Obviously if it cannot transmit data, you won't get them.. if you have the diskspace, log them to disk too!

Code: Select all

thanks for your reply but i ditched the router and replaced it with a new one i was having and that problem is not happening though i have another issue with the current setup but i think it is best suited for another thread.

I Have the same problem with RB1200 RouterOS v6rc11.
