Bouncing ports on CRS317 <-> CRS317
by Shane Clay 24 Aug '19

24 Aug '19

Hi All We've noticed a lot of RX FCS errors between two 10G Fibre SFP+ CRS317 <-> CRS317. We only see the errors on one side and they cause packet loss, port drops, STP etc etc etc. We're running RouterOS (SwOS is not an option). We've replaced SFP modules, patch leads and tested the fibre between the two points. Pretty confident it's not the modules or cabling. Now I've come across this: https://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=141633&start=100 This seems to suggest it's a known problem in the CRS317 line, although most people here are talking about between 317 and 328 switches, I'm seeing in between two of the same 317's (albeit one about a year newer) Is anyone else seeing problems like this? Surely we're not actually dealing with a company here which is still actually selling this stuff knowing it has a problem..... Shane

CCR1072 opinions
by Philip Loenneker 19 Aug '19

19 Aug '19

Hi all, In doing some research on the CCR1072, there are quite a few reports of issues with them. However, as with most things, you tend to not hear from people who do NOT have problems. I was just wondering if anyone would mind sharing some real-world experience of these devices? Note that I am specifically interested in the CCR1072 - we have plenty of experience with CCR1009, CCR1016 and CCR1036 series devices. I am aware that the CCR1036 has 36x 1.2Ghz cores, whereas the CCR1072 has 72x 1Ghz cores, so they are clearly more suited to multi-threaded use cases (not BGP with full route tables...). But it seems like it should be reasonable as a BNG. What are others using them for? Any feedback would be appreciated :) Regards, Philip Loenneker | Senior Network Engineer | TasmaNet 40-50 Innovation Drive, Dowsing Point, Tas 7010, Australia P: 1300 792 711 philip.loenneker(a)tasmanet.com.au<mailto:philip.loenneker@tasmanet.com.au> www.tasmanet.com.au<http://www.tasmanet.com.au/>

DNS to 8.8.8.8 refused. 8.8.4.4 / 1.1.1.1 / 9.9.9.9 OK
by Malcolm Faed 12 Aug '19

12 Aug '19

Hi all, Sorry in advance for the partial MT post, but I am hoping someone can assist. We have our own AS and an IP range routed through a MT. Clients connected to our IP range are receiving 'query refused' from a NS lookup using google DNS 8.8.8.8. Other DNS servers (8.8.4.4 / 1.1.1.1 / 9.9.9.9) etc work fine. For the router itself and NAT I use 9.9.9.9 so never noticed until clients started connecting. Is there anything special I need to do to use Googles DNS via our IP range? Below is a debug log from Windows nslookup. Thanks in advance for any clues.

skype for business link quality - RouterBOARD 962UiGS-5HacT2HnT
by Matt Chipman 05 Aug '19

05 Aug '19

Hi all, i have a annoying and recurring problem with my MT device (RouterBOARD 962UiGS-5HacT2HnT) where the Skype link quality indicator (top right bar graph) fluctuates between "really bad" and "good" but mostly sits on "really bad" (red) I have discovered that if I reboot the MT then rejoin the call, it works fine for the next few hours (bar graph says excellent) but will have to definitely reboot the next day again once I jump on my first call. This happens on 2 or 5 Ghz wireless, must admit I have not tried Ethernet. Anyone have any ideas? I have PNP turned on for the internal network and the standard FW rules that come with the default setup. I have reset the device to factory defaults and it makes no difference after the initial reboot. I am on a 50Mbps fibre link with IINET. All other services work fine its just SFB which is being a pain. tia Matt

8 Port Switches
by Matt Hall 05 Aug '19

05 Aug '19

Hello all, Not sure it this ok, not asking about a Mikrotik product. Sometimes I need a small 8 or 16 port unmanaged gigabit switch simply to connect up several clients to one data point. For use in SOHO environments and Pubs. MK don’t make one. Basic model is CRS112-8G-4S-IN for approx. $200 then it jumps up to a 24 port CSS326 (too big) for the same price. What have you found to be reliable? Matt

Thanks Ben. The only 2 units that support 700 / B28 are $1200 and $1700, so yes rather pricy but then so is a luxury motor yacht. They do look solid.

4G Modem supporting 700Mhz/ Band 28
by Matt Hall 29 Jul '19

29 Jul '19

Hello All, Thanks for all the generous support provided by you all. It’s very much appreciated. I need to replace a Teltonika RUT-950 modem router on a luxury motor yacht placed below deck. A 3G and 4G external antenna feed into it from above and it serves a basic AV / WLAN setup. The yacht is mostly within Sydney harbour but sometimes ventures up the coast as far as Brisbane. Any suggestions? I know there’s now an MK LTE modem (as of a few months ago) but it doesn’t support B28. Matt

SXTLTE dropouts after upgrade
by Thomas Jackson 28 Jul '19

28 Jul '19

Good morning all, Just hoping for a sanity check... we have a fleet of RBSXTLTE3-7 units out in the field which have proven to be quite reliable. Since upgrading one of the units which was previously working fine from 6.39.2 to 6.45.2 for the security fixes (and doing associated firmware upgrade) - the unit is locking up even with no traffic after about 4 hours of uptime. I'm still able to SSH into it and do some tasks (eg issuing "/system reboot" works, albeit takes quite a while to actually do the reboot), but other tasks don't work (eg if I type in "/ping 1" it will reliably and totally lock the SSH session before I can even enter the full IP address). I've tried a full factory reset of configuration and rebuilding from scratch, as well as going back to 6.44.5 and up to 6.46beta16, the only idea I haven't tried yet is to netinstall it (which is a bit of a challenge as it isn't something I can easily access physically so I'm hoping to avoid that!). I'm not game to upgrade another one of our units to see if it is the unit or the upgrade that is the problem quite yet. Is there anything obvious with the upgrade path that I've missed perhaps? Kind regards, Thomas

Powerline/ EOP
by Matt Hall 19 Jul '19

19 Jul '19

Hi All, Rare that I would want to resort to powerline devices, (power over ethernet). Mikrotik has just released a product that may or may not make it to Australia. In the meantime, I have a 2 bedroom unit built like a bunker that needs wifi access at the rear. Client has been successfully using EOP for one section of the unit so I’ve plugged in one of the pairs of the EOP devices to test various power outlets and it gets a green light wherever we need wifi so I’m thinking I might find a device that does EOP with built 2.4 for this job. Simple requirements, most demanding task will be steaming video. I don’t want to piggyback an AP on the EOP unit as one of them will sit in a hallway and look rather messy. No option to run cat cable here due to strata laws and building design. Another option is mesh I guess. Thoughts? Any recommendations on an EOP unit with built in wifi? Matt
