Mikrotik which has a comfortable 35 non-M subscribers. Again, remember to turn on Firewall rules, consider bandwidth shaping and put in rules for icmp and block 255.255.255.255 then it will give much of the same protections that you are used to on Mikrotik. Forbes Mercy Washington Broadband

You're basic 433 with an SR2, Winbox sees both but the R isn't by the SR2. We checked bridge then port and they're all set up right, there is the hash mark next to the SR2 but they won't bridge traffic, no one registers and field tests don't detect the radio. So is it the board or the SR2?
