I live out in the middle of nowhere in Northern California. There isnt even Verizon signal. I have 37 APs connected to a 250Mb fiber line and not a lot of people around us. I have seen on my Air Marshall a few spoofing alerts recently. I have a hard time believing these are real. In one case, it says there is AP spoofing happening and then the MAC address given doesn't even exist on my Here's what I see Neither of those MAC addresses appear on my network and maybe they shouldn't. My APs are about 1/4 of a mile apart at most. Its a large campground/retreat center. Any insights?

I just put them on the same VLAN. its fine. I was trying to avoid the chance that somebody uses the wrong port (I want to keep one open) and this was my attempt which failed. its ok this works fine.

Damn it. Ok. The switch has a router mode but I don’t love it. But it sounds like it would be aware enough to avoid this problem. Is there any other way to fix this?

Hello! I have an MX68 set up with multiple VLANs. I have the network hardware and APs on 1, the clients on 4, and a special VLAN 12 set up for me for a specific purpose. I have a Synology with 2 10gig LAN ports, both connected to a 10gig Mikrotik switch acting in switch mode. One port is set to VLAN 4 and it properly pulls the VLAN 4 IP, no problem. The other port is set to VLAN12, and it properly pulls that VLAN IP. The issue is I just noticed that if I am doing a copy from another 10gig client on VLAN 4 to a SMB share logged into via IP on that VLAN12 NAS port, the traffic is not staying within the MikroTik switch. It is going all the way back to the gigabit port on the MX and then back out. What causes that route to get picked?

Ok you guys arent going to believe this.... So we had this construction project going on for months on this renovated building. We had an access point called Floor 1 sitting on the network stack because there was nowhere to mount it yet in the main room because the walls weren't done. We had another access point ready to go for Floor 2 and that access point wasnt yet claimed in order to avoid unnecessary license fees. We just finished the project and my co-admin went about mounting the access points while I was out for a few minutes. I get back and start testing it and all the devices on Floor 1's dashboard are getting abysmal signal strength. I can't believe it. We had tested it reasonably and this new wall went up but it shouldnt be THAT bad. Im lightly panicking. I write this post and start researching more powerful antennas. Then I notice that the light on the bottom of the access point Im on isnt blue. "That's funny..." I think to myself. Then I go to reboot it through the dashboard. And the light stays on. Nothing makes sense here. Except... my co-admin had switched the access points accidentally. Floor 1 is now an entire flight up from where we are and the access point on our floor isnt even claimed yet. Immediate relief. So I claim it and of course now its healthy as a horse. Thanks for the responses. Hopefully this story was worth the trouble. Haha.

I have a new construction installation where a wall was built by accident enshrouding an access point with too many building materials. We have an MR 52 there right now and the results are almost passable. We can spend whatever we need to spend on an access point to get a signal through this wall into a main room area with more ears. What access point would you use? Worth trying an MR53 or 55? 56?

Theres only one network in this org. So when I do that I just see hardware types that dont correspond. Thats what im trying to remove. Maybe call support?

Hey hey - I have one network/org that only shows me the firmware updates that are pertinent to the devices on that network while another one shows me everything ie switches, cameras etc even though I dont have any of those devices. Cant find the setting to deactivate them. Anybody know?

I just bought some acoustic dampening pads and I’m going to take a run at creating an envelope that this MR 52 could go in and sit somewhere out of sight. My guess is it won’t require very much ventilation

I removed it and saved and then re-entered it and then deleted again and try to whole bunch of weird delete re-add save combinations and then all of a sudden VPN started working 🙈

Spoke to support - Yes, confirmed its a known issue with dev team responding. He associated my case with the internal update system or whatever and will let me know when its fixed.

Hello! I tried to claim an MR52 and it just spun and spun. When I reloaded the page I got this: On hold with Cisco for 40 min. Anybody know how to get out of this?

It seems to be an authentication issue looking at this log. But my Meraki cloud password is correct and the shared secret is too. So not sure whats going on...

The way this cable works is the coax comes into the house, goes into a dumb modem that gives my MX68 an external IP address right on the net. https://approvedmodems.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/ARRIS-SURFboard-S33-User-Manual.pdf Pages 18 and 19 detail the features of the modem and there is nothing about opening ports. So are you saying Comcast themselves needs to open ports for me on their end? That nothing within the walls of my house can be modified to accomplish this. Is that correct?

@PhilipDAth come again? I do that in the modem? But the modem doesnt do a firewall. Or do you mean on the MX? Could you say a little more?

I have an MR52 close to my desk and I can hear a little electronic noise coming from inside. Its not super loud but its definitely present and it intensifies with network activity. Anybody know off top if this is all MR52s or if theres a gradient? I have one I could try up there instead but Im not sure if they would all do this. Would like a little quieter.

Hello! I have a new Xfinity installation with an MX68. Using an Arris S33 cable modem. Im being rejected using Client VPN. My other install is on AT&T biz fiber and it has no issues. Im reading around and have seen the suggestion that Ill need to add the MX's IP (the external IP) to the DMZ in the modem. Does that make sense? Any other ideas of why the VPN would be getting rejected? It doesnt even seem to be able to connect at all so it does point to something occurring before the MX. But its odd because the S33 doenst even have a DMZ as far as I know. Its just a dumb (awesome) modem.
