I'm confused. The router I have that the person asked about doesn't have wireless

Sorry my bad, I bought a Mikrotik Hap ax2 a little while back which is what I was referring to. So all the tests are from a laptop with a Realtek RTL8822CE M.2 which has 2 WDR 3600 Antennas plugged into it. I'm testing 80-wide to an Archer A7 then to my new Mikrotik Hap ax2 re the graph above. The Reason I asked is because I've not seen you comment on your new device since you created the Thread. I was looking at buying one in the future!

Ahh right ok cool. I'm hopeful that I can have it up and active within the next few weeks.

All I tested in it was the poe capability lol.

I am waiting for the rewiring of my house to be done which is blocked by the roofing job and i am waiting for the community fibre to be installed (I have pushed that back 4 times now!)

 

[Ad_Augendae]

Look forward to it.

Going for the 3Gbps?!

Haha Na just 920mb. Too pricey for the 3gb. It's like 90+ a month!

Hi, does anyone know how to force 2.5gb on one of the ports on a CRS309-1G-8S+ switch?

The router OS interface only allows me to select 10g 1g 100mb etc. No 2.5g option

Is there such a thing as an SFP+ that runs at 2.5Gbps? I thought the underlying interface was always 10Gbps.

6-speed RJ-45 module for up to 10 Gbps

Yes but No - it's up to the switch to implement anything other than 10Gbps (most switches won't)


Edit:
Nothing mentioned on the compatibility matrix or support page about it not running at 2.5Gb in the CRS309-1G-8S+

Yes i laready have some of them running at 1gb speeds

But on the routerOS via winbox, there is no option to select 2.5gb on the ports

I presume the module you're using will run at 2.5Gbps?

This suggests the module will report 10Gbps to the router but negotiate 2.5Gbps with the other end

2.5 GBit Ethernet possible with MikroTik CRS309-1G-8S+IN with MikroTik S+RJ10 SwOS 2.11 - MikroTik

Not sure if this helps.

# cat /proc/lan_sds/lan_sds_cfg
lan_sds_mode = 4(HiSGMII PHY)
# flash get LAN_SDS_MODE
LAN_SDS_MODE=0

It is hoped that 2.5Gbps support can be added to the SFP + of rb5009 - MikroTik

"Yes please, on all CCR, CRS and RBs

[jonneymendoza]

i wil try a different SFP transiever and see if that will get it to work

It might still be in testing.. https://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?p=976673

This.. https://fccid.io/TV7CPG52X/

Edit: two of those would work for me!

Every experience I've had with MikroTik's Wi-Fi has been that it's balls. I wonder if being able to use the vendor drivers now they are on a modern Linux kernel has fixed that.

 

[Ad_Augendae]

I don't know what to say. Re my experience other than positive, If I had problems I would say it's garbage but it just isn't. But then I've never used anything Old.

Depending on whether those are 2.4GHz or 5GHz they’re either fine or they’re terrible. For 5 GHz these days you should be see8ng high 400’s plus and on AX clients (which those won’t be) I would be expecting see 600-800Mbps.

I just went the unify route for WiFi AP

Yeah it's crap!
