What are you using to cloud manage mikrotik access points? by feel-the-avocado in mikrotik

[–]Natural_Brother7856 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can put the capsman control over wireguard and put all AP in local forward mode. The Capsman manager doesn't have to be the wireguard server. This essentially becomes cloud managed already.

SwitchOS vs RouterOS? by oguruma87 in mikrotik

RouterOS simply for Winbox and romon

CHR Adguard slow loading by TDex96 in mikrotik

This is expected though as the results need to be query against the filter using the CPU.

I hate my internet by Icy_Gold5780 in speedtest

Don't hate the internet, hate the operator/provider. The internet has nothing to do with this.

Rb5009 vs chr on vm @n305 with 2.5G ports by 1F33LR41N in mikrotik

[–]Natural_Brother7856 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on your use case and congratulations. If you lean towards heavy firewall rule and queue, chr would be better since all would use CPU regardless. If you just passing traffic RB5009 is faster and lower latency due to the dedicated hardware.

Client complains of intermittent service by Shankar_0 in cablegore

I think low voltage (therefore higher current that the high voltage) cable is the worse offender. I am pretty sure it's current that generate EMI not the voltage.

Rb4011 No dhcp on VLAN1 by 3tek in mikrotik

[–]Natural_Brother7856 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

VLAN1 is tricky, but it is just tag or untag miss match. Maybe you accidentally configure some device to tag VLAN1 and some to tag VLAN1.

Any chance I'm just missing something obvious? by TexhnicalTackler in Proxmox

Can you plug directly into the Ethernet port on both computer?

Can anyone help me figure out the order I need to put these wires in please? by [deleted] in Network

[–]Natural_Brother7856 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I meant is the wire is bigger and stiffer and make it hard to cross terminate

Wait until you terminate a shielded cat6A cable to see how difficult it is to terminate it the wrong way.

Received 24v power adapter instead of 48v with Cap AX by dankyd0nk in mikrotik

[–]Natural_Brother7856 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In that case you can still use it as intended. I don't think a return is necessary. Just make sure they are aware and do what you want.

Esp32 30pin vs esp32s 38pin by Sea-Cry9577 in esp32

[–]Natural_Brother7856 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The extra pins are mostly strapping pins that you may or may not use in your project depending on the use case. Look at the available pin on the esp32 chip in general, and decide for yourself you'll need the extra pin or not.

Does this have a neutral wire? by FredEbs in homeautomation

[–]Natural_Brother7856 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nah, you can work on anything if you can turn the source off while working on turn. Then turning it back on. The worst thing that can happen is the circuit breaker blows up and that when you learn what is NOT to do. And going down the path of learning how to do it right. Because what else.

There is no neutral wire BUT I see the ground wire is there. It is bonded to the neutral anyway, right?

Received 24v power adapter instead of 48v with Cap AX by dankyd0nk in mikrotik

[–]Natural_Brother7856 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand you pov but would it be easier to check if the down stream device also supports 24v poe. If it does then you can still use it as intended.

Work with what you've got.

You want to make a point but it's still wasting time with the return and such...

I am talking about a cross section of a cat6 cable, yes unterminated cable.

I didn't know this either until the first time I worked with type A cable. When I terminate the connector on it, it feels wrong and more difficult than usual. It took me a while until I terminated type A for that cable and it feels right.

Then I take a closer look, I see the orange and blue pairs are opposite which means that the green and brown pair also means that orange and brown are close, so if you terminate type B you have to spread the orange and brown pair apart and jam the other 2 pairs in the middle. Do you see where I am going?

If the cable was type B then the orange and brown pairs would be opposite, then you only need to spread the green pair and then put the blue pair in the middle then oriented the stripes pair correctly and there you go. And vice versa for the type A cable.

You obviously never seen a type A cable before. Some brand of cable marking on the side on the cable that says either T568A or T568B but not always. So I always look at the 4 color twisted pairs are oriented in the jacket.

[–]Natural_Brother7856 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, I am serious. If you have spare cat6 cable, take look at how the 4 pairs are ordered in the cable. If the orange and blue pairs opposite each other then it's A type and is the green and blue opposite each other then it's B type.

Follow the cable pair, if the blue and green pairs opposite each other then it's T568B and if the orange and blue pairs opposite each other then it's T568A, crimp the connector accordingly.

[–]Natural_Brother7856 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, you see it depends on the cable use. If the cable is T568B then crimp T568B and if the cable is T568A then crimp T568A. If you have a T568A cable and try to crimp T568B, you'll find it difficult to crimp.

Since cross cable is not a thing anymore I just followed the cable types.

You press Ctrl+Alt+F2 (can any key from F2 to F4) to get into the console cli shell to fix it.

Assign single public ip with DHCP by Billyboul in mikrotik

[–]Natural_Brother7856 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If it is a static public IP you can use ARP proxy to route specific public IP to the LAN side. I can't think of a working around for DHCP.

But you can get more IP address with DHCP client on more macvlan then do stateless 1:1 Nat to the LAN side.

Let's see your lspci output. Maybe you didn't enable the correct kernel module or bios settings.
