That feature has been in Marvell chipsets for almost 10 years. It's about time Atheros got with the program. ;-)

In RouterOS v5.21 and newer releases we have added a wonderful new diagnostics feature - ability to detect cable problems. For example, if you have an apartment building with complicated Ethernet wiring inside the walls or ceilings, and you lose the link - previously, you would need special equipment to pinpoint the location of cable damage, before you open that wall, but now - RouterOS will tell you these things: • which cable pair is damaged • at what length is the cable broken • how is the cable broken - shorted or torn Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
