General reminder: when hardcoding Ethernet, you must hardcode both ends to the same settings. You cannot hardcode one end, as autonegotiate cannot properly deal with that scenario.
Removing advertised speeds and duplexes, on the other hand, can be done on one end. Also, mikrotik's safe mode is your friend for this sort of thing. It's not quite as good as a cisco 'reload in 5' command, but it's certainly better than nothing. -----Original Message----- From: Af [mailto:af-boun...@afmug.com] On Behalf Of Ken Hohhof via Af Sent: Wednesday, November 26, 2014 10:29 AM To: af@afmug.com Subject: Re: [AFMUG] 450 AP still dropping to 10M Ethernet w/Mikrotik? At which end? In the past I've had bad luck forcing the speed at the Mikrotik end, it made things worse. I could try limiting what the AP advertises, but risk cutting myself off. -----Original Message----- From: Daniel Gerlach via Af Sent: Wednesday, November 26, 2014 8:54 AM To: af@afmug.com Subject: Re: [AFMUG] 450 AP still dropping to 10M Ethernet w/Mikrotik? have you fix it to 100m full 2014-11-26 15:49 GMT+01:00 Ken Hohhof via Af <af@afmug.com>: > I thought this problem had gone away months ago with some 450 FW > upgrades, but I just realized I'm still seeing it on 3 or 4 APs between 2 sites. > > Link flaps up and down, and then drops to 10M.
