Review on Mikrotik MT RBwAPR 2ND RouterBoard WAP by Anson Wang ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like it, thanks for the quality product.

In general, the product solves the assigned tasks. Although, if I chose now, I would rather take mikrotik ltap mini. It is still more adapted to hanging on the wall outside. Pros: Function lte passthrough - allows you to transfer ip from the provider without nat. For the sake of this, and took, in fact. Raised first a self-written smart home, then video surveillance and storage on ownCloud. Given that the only type of communication is lte channel. I knocked out a SIM card with static, and chose this one as a modem. NAT is up on another micro (ten-port rb2022), to which all my hardware and a Wi-Fi point are connected. I hung the wap on the street against the wall, brought a vituha to it, and power supply from it (by the way, it was powered directly from rb2022, one of its ports supports power supply via poe). Connected mimo antenna at 18 dB. Then it only remained to raise the VPN to rb2022 and the job was done. I already wrote about PoE. Also in inventory. You can change the radio module. R11-lte6 with frequency aggregation is already on sale. It's a pity there is no aggregation on the built-in. Worth keeping in mind. I did not know that. Street performance. The kit includes everything for mounting on a wall or mast. Although, on hot days in the sun, it was not possible to check the stability, but summer is not far away. Has some cons Microts would not be microts if it were not for the fly in the ointment. The interface sometimes freezes for some unknown reason (the one on which passthrough). rb2022 sees the connected device, receives an ip address from it, but the packets do not go through. No internet and that's it. You have to restart wap. The problem is software related. Simka normally can be pulled out only with tweezers. I preferred to just take it apart and remove the board. LAN port would be gigabit. Although, I still did not receive values ​​above 70 from the operator. Moreover, the signal was excellent. That is, the speed was corny cut. There is also a radio card without frequency aggregation. Although given the point above, she is also probably like a goat's fifth leg. And yet, the guys obviously had to make the holes for the cables fatter. When I hooked the antenna to it, the 5d-fb 50 Ohm cable turned out to be thick, I had to expand the holes with a drill.
