SXT 5HnD<\/h1>\n

The first item is the new SXT 5HnD. This is a dual polarity 802.11a\/n device that is all in one(16dbi antenna with routerboard). They look like they are taking the UBNT nanobridge head on with this product. The price tag should be around $90 and it ships with a level 3 license, though this is fine for station mode or to act as a bridge for P2P.
\nThis guy is supposed to have a standard voltage sensor as well as a temperature sensor.
\n400Mhz, 32MB RAM, 64MB flash.<\/p>\n

This router was built with Nv2 in mind<\/a>!<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nThe design reminds me of some licensed frequency stuff I’ve seen, so it definitely looks carrier class.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nYou can see on the back that they have the, now, industry standard signal LEDs. The plastic clip system on the back looks interesting…almost like you will be able to disconnect it without too much trouble(unlike the nano bridges). The little flappy flap hides the ethernet port as well as a USB port.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nIt looks like the poll mount just clips right onto the back of the unit. I also see a slot to use a pole clamp.<\/p>\n

Nv2 mode station-bridge<\/a><\/h1>\n

This is a new Nv2 only extension that basically connects to an AP and bridges clients right through the CPE. I love this quote from the wiki: “This mode is safe to use for L2 bridging and should be used whenever there are sufficient reasons to not use station-wds mode.” They don’t bother mentioning what might be a sufficient reason to not use station-wds \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

SwOS 1.4<\/h1>\n

Looks mostly like bug fixes.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s new in 1.4:
\n*) added ability to limit access by VLAN;
\n*) added ability to disable Mikrotik Discovery Protocol;
\n*) fixed problem – connecting to SwOS over VLAN did
\nnot work;
\n*) fixed problem – switch sometimes stopped

\/system leds<\/h1>\n

You now have a bit of control of your SXT, 711 and 400 series routers.
\n“you can configure each of the RouterBOARD LED lights to show one of these things: \u201cflash access, interface rx or tx, interface activity, interface status, wireless signal level\u201d.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
