Band 28 LTE Card
by Matt Perkins 16 Nov '15

16 Nov '15

Hi All, Has anyone had any success with any LTE cards that support band 28 (Telstra's 700Mhz band) with Mikrotik equipment. Im toying around with the idea of putting a hotspot on board an aircraft and you really cant beat the range of Telstra's new band and before anyone says anything about mobile phones on board aircraft I understand the laws and responsibility here. Im a licensed pilot. I already have an Iridium hotspot on board but 2400BPS is not very useful for anything other them SMS and the IPAD does an amazing job on band 28 in 90% of the time but im trying to get an extra 8~9 % Matt. -- /* Matt Perkins Direct 1300 137 379 Spectrum Networks Ptd.

>LR range SFP + mikrotik
by Mike Everest 16 Nov '15

16 Nov '15

Hi All! I receive questions from various folks from time to time who need to take advantage of dark fibre runs > 20Km. I have already received confirmation from MT that none of their products currently support power required to deliver greater than LR modules, so I suppose that the only option is for some kind of third party switch or media converter would be required when using MikroTik routers at the endpoints? Here is a query I received this afternoon: "What are after is integrating a 45km Single mode dark fibre into our network, obviously mikrotik routers on each end. If we could push 10Gbps that would be awesome, however if we could obtain 2 or 3Gbps with a lot less effort that would most likely be the go to start with." Does anyone have any suggestions for the OP? (I suggested that he post here, but perhaps he's a bit too shy to post in a public forum, so I offered to ask on behalf ;) Any comments will be most appreciated! Cheers, Mike.

Omnitik Half Duplex Issue
by Paul Julian 11 Nov '15

11 Nov '15

Hi guys, a while back I asked the list about the issues we seem to have with Omnitik 5Hnd units and them randomly syncing up in half-duplex 10M, I have exhausted all options with these and after just having yet another one do it I am at my wits end. It doesn't seem to matter whether you use auto-negotiate or try and hard set the interface speed on the device itself or the device that plus into it but they just randomly decide to go to 10M half-duplex, has anybody else seen this and come up with a concrete fix by any chance ? It only happens on Omnitiks and it seems that it's only on the ether1 port from what I can see. Regards Paul

Hi I have to admit it was a while ago. Also I looked through the slides from Melbourne they mentioned it would be fixed in 7 ... soon :) I had 2 VM's which were able to iperf 9.8Gb/s tcp. Place the CCR in the middle and it dropped to 1Gb/s. if I started 8 parralel tcp streams I go 8Gb/s A Not sure if this dup or not .. -----Original Message----- From: Public [mailto:public-bounces@talk.mikrotik.com.au] On Behalf Of Mike Everest Sent: Tuesday, 20 October 2015 2:46 PM To: 'MikroTik Australia Public List' <public(a)talk.mikrotik.com.au> Subject: Re: [MT-AU Public] X86 What routerOS version shows that behaviour? I know that there has been a heap of work done on multi-core queue architecture since around 6.20 to 6.28 - they claim enormous performance boost (like up to 15 times faster!) in high traffic situation. Also, make sure that your testing methodology does not introduce some limitation. Btest, for example, is limited to 1 cpu, so if your btest client pegs a CPU, it is not necessarily indicative of a limitation with routing ;-) Cheers!

MikroTik as an LNS
by Tim Warnock 21 Oct '15

21 Oct '15

Ahoi, Dunno when it was actually put into play: but I noticed in the latest 6.33rc25 MikroTik now supports the specification of an L2TP Tunnel Secret for a source IP range. Meaning it can terminate sessions directly from wholesalers who use L2TP Tunnel passwords. Nice!

X86 USB License Keys?

Hi Mikrotikians, Have embarked upon a grand adventure to build a multiple 10Gbps machine on R/OS and hit a snag ... The 24 hours have expired on the R/OS test and I need to add the KEY to the USB image to get the machine up and running. How to do that? -- http://about.me/terry.sweetser

Hi All, Just a quick question is there a way to "record" a script in winbox etc... for later reuse? Much like the record macro for excel. Thanks Andrew
