Hi
I am contemplating using a 180T and hEX-S. Does anyone have any experience with this combination and long term reliability?

I have a hAP Lite (RB941-2nD-TC). I went to upload an NPK file and
found that I couldn't. scp fails with various errors, mostly
"temporarily unavailable", and only about three-quarters of the file is
copied. This is with a direct connection to a laptop.
The same cable works fine with other MikroTiks, the problem happens
with other cables, the problem happens on ports 2,3 and 4, and the
problem persists after a configuration reset. The problem is completely
repeatable. The connection is not a complete failure - I can for
example log in to the device over a cable and configure it.
It's a cheap device, so I don't want to spend too much time on it, but
if this is a known issue with a quick fix it'd be nice :-)
Regards, K.

I'm almost too embarrassed to write this, but here goes.
Basically I made the cardinal mistake of assuming something instead of
just noting the symptoms. I assumed the VPN was down; but all I really
knew was that my test traffic was not being delivered as it should have
been, and that it should have been going over the VPN.
The policy at one end says run traffic over the VPN if it comes from
192.168.102.0/24 and is going to 192.168.103.0/24. The policy at the
other end says vice versa.
I was testing from the routers themselves - which have many interfaces
and thus many possible source addresses. And I was not specifying a
source address for my tests, so my test packets were not coming from
source addresses that matched the policies.
The penny dropped as I watched (for the thousandth time) a host
unreachable come back from the ISP's next hop address, and oh-so-
belatedly twigged that my test packets were not being directed over the
VPN at all...
As soon as I specified the right source addresses in my tests, the
traffic went over the VPN. And when I then tested from the networks on
the LAN sides of the routers (something I should have tried a lot
earlier), that worked too.

Two MikroTik RB951G-2HnD routers have sort of swung back into my orbit
with the return after some time of an old customer.
These routers both have 6.36 on them, and I'm thinking I should upgrade
them to 6.47.10 LTS.
Is that too big a jump? Will chunks of the current configuration fail?
It's all fairly plain-vanilla except for an IPSec VPN running between
the two devices.
The particular model is barely mentioned in any of the (many, many)
release notes since 6.36, and nothing really relevant.
Any hints appreciated.
Thanks, K.

Hi Folks,
We had a bit of an outage at work this morning, and I was a little
surprised that my 'net at home went down - it should have just failed over
to going via VPN over the MF823 with Telstra 4G that I have had plugged in
for YEARS here.. Finally had some time to sit down and check, and the LTE
interface is nowhere to be found.
Rebooted the CRS109 incase something was hinkey.. No go. Moved the MF823
to another CRS109.. Still no go. Swapped in a spare MF823.. STILL no go..
These are on 6.47.10 and 6.46.8.
Tested on our travel router (RB2011, 6.45.6), and lte1 comes up fine!
Have Mikrotik removed support for MF823's in the last 12 months?? Anyone
have a suggestion of something not crazy expensive to replace them with? :)

Hi Damien,
I have no idea on the CRS109 support. However, I've generally given up on 4G USB modems as I've found too many times they let you down when failover is critical due to a quirk of some sort... My go to now are the Teltonika RUT240 (sorry Mike ☹) the bonus is they have Band 28 support too, I've got a few dozen scattered around with 100% reliability so far.
Hope this helps,
DB

Hello,
The EC25- AU GC works in PPP but not in LTE. Using an ltap mini.
It's enabled but not running even though it's registered to the LTE network.
Any idea why? I have 3 of the GC units, have tested 2 same result.
Any suggestions
Thank you,
Matt
