I've tried to sort the list out a bit, hope it makes sense!
I'm getting way higher download speeds ! 850Mbps but lower upload speeds ( 850 -> 750-760Mbps ) on my MX68CW which is still excellent !
I'm getting more performance than ever.
Until now, it's looking by far better than the previous beta!
Has anyone tried this yet on a MX67C? Curious to know if they've truly fixed all the cellular issues that plagued previous versions of MX 18.xxx
Is there a timeline for when 18.207 is supposed to go production?
Yes, but the customer in question isn't going to go for it if it isn't a full production release. I don't have any drop dead dates, but I'd like to get an idea of when that will come out.
I upgraded my MX450 HA pair to 18.207 once I saw it in SRC. Immediately, end users started reporting issues getting websites to load. All devices reported online in the dashboard such as my downstream switches and APs. It was very sporadic as some users had no problems, but several others did. After a few hours of troubleshooting with Meraki support, they recommended a rollback. Rolling back to 18.107 resolved those issues for us. It might have been a random fluke for us, but I wanted to let folks know that may experience similar issues.
Thank you for your feedback ! Do you know if they are investigating the issue ?
They acted like they were unaware of anyone else that had experienced this issue on this firmware.
Same for me with my MX450.
Upgraded to 18.207 -> two major problems :
- The MX450 restarts randomly (according to the logs, loss of power, even though we have 2 redundant power supplies) or uplink down...
- Some of our users are unable to connect with the basic VPN client (L2TP connection failed because the security layer encountered a processing error during initial negotiations)
Support wasn't aware either.
After 2 hours on the phone with them, we downgraded.
Rolling back to 18.107 resolved all issues...
Be very careful if you install this version with an MX450 !!
Ps : no problem with MX64, MX65, MX68, MX84 or MX100
@MlatParl I hope you are aware, but the MX64, MX65, MX84 and MX100 don't run 18.2xx, if you upgraded networks in them they will be running 18.1xx, I think it will be 18.107.7 as that is the latest patch, despite what is stated below, but I might be wrong:
Therefore the only network(s) you have running 18.207 are those with MX68s in them.
Exactly, thank you for these details.
So, no problem with MX68 😆
All MX64, MX64, MX84 and MX100 are running 18.107.6 on the status page.
On the other hand, I just saw that all these models have the status Config : Out of date (reverted to safe config), even after restarting... 🙄
hi @cmr , how are you getting this information? Is there something I can subscribe to that tells us when end of firmware is coming? Thank you
Thanks Jimmy, i already have this link - was hoping there was a link out there such as a version update or a blog post that I can subscribe to...
https://documentation.meraki.com/General_Administration/Firmware_Upgrades/Product_Firmware_Version_R...
...so the only way to know of firmware caps is to constantly go to this page?
I just get it from the release notes, new releases are always posted here:
Firmware Upgrades Feed - The Meraki Community
Other than that, the only page is as @jimmyt234 suggested.
thank you!! this is it @cmr , are there any others that you would recommend I subscribe to as a newbie?
Another good one to sub to is the new features feed: https://community.meraki.com/t5/Feature-Announcements/bg-p/new-features
Also the global Meraki status page: https://status.meraki.net/
Thanks Jimmy 🙂
