I agree with a pcap. Reboot the SM to trigger a new DHCP request and capture it. You can at least confirm that the DHCP request is received at the mikrotik and the response is leaving the Mikrotik’s ethernet port. After that you can pass the ball to Cambium. From: AF On Behalf Of Josh

The input chain is to the Mikrotik itself, ie the IP address that it would theoretically get from the DHCP server. I was thinking of a managed Mikrotik as a demarc to the customer's stuff (so forward chain). On Tue, Mar 8, 2022 at 7:57 PM Steve Jones wrote: > I had this issue a long time ago, i

Are we talking about wireless? If I was starting fresh with wireless today, I’d target “up to” 50mbps and have a 100mbps plan for qualifying locations. I’d have an aggressive QoS plan to mitigate impact of heavy usage. I’d be a stickler about achieving and maintaining high MCS. To make that

we have to have it for dhcp relay to keep functioning. otherwise it periodically stops working from EPMP APs, I never knew why, mikrotik had no answer, but it would suddenly get caught up in non ACL drops add action=accept chain=input comment="ALLOW DHCP UDP 67" dst-port=67 log-prefix=dhcp protocol

I have not had this problem with any Mikrotik Customer routers, but it happens so rarely. It's happened on about 4 AP's across my entire network in the last year. The first time I experienced it was last summer during an install, The customers router refused to get a DHCP Lease, as did my fie

I think its something in the way the packet is altered when traversing the bridge. I always wondered if the randomness had to do with some other consumer router on that node doing some weird thing that AP isolation should not let happen but does. Once I found that the firewall rule resolved it I ju

Thanks. I should have specified that this is for fiber deployment. I shouldn't have any problem competing speed wise, even with standard GPON. I'm somewhat curious what to expect take-rate wise since I'm not offering bundled TV service. My other fiber deployments have been a bit more rural with no

It seemed to peak around 30% without a video offering when going against a cable company. Adding video seemed to move it over 40%. It also greatly depends on the age of the population. If the homeowner is under about 35 they generally don’t give a crap about cable TV, they just want fast In

The XGSPON here is Nokia. In “unserved” areas on fiber I think coming out of the gate with 50% take is a fair guess, because those “unserved” people often have figured something out already. Cellular hotspot, satellite, 1Mb DSL that goes out when it rains, etc. It sems like about half stic

Hello All, Am I crazy when I'm remembering that when connecting an original Cambium 450 SM to a 450M AP the throughput key being overridden to uncapped as being a feature? I contacted Cambium support and was told that in V20.3 this was removed intentionally. Did anyone else use this feature?
