Paul, There are posts on the MT forums of complaints with similar issues. I have had similar issues with the 751 and 951 units. Signal strength is sporatic and throughput is initially ok, then quickly drops off to zero. I switched to 2011 series and have never looked back. MT keeps avoiding questi

Thanks for this, Martin. I'm going to snip the wan IP portion of this to add to my backup script. A couple of my clients are not on statics, and it helps to know when their IP changes so I can still get to their router. - Original Message - Subject: Re: [Mikrotik] DynDNS Script Hell

I was told that 500/112 series worked more efficiently on 2.9.51. I have no information to back that claim, though. I have them on both 2.9.51 and 3.16, but the only ones that push any sort of data (5MB+) are 2.9.51. If you can stand the downtime to downgrade, I'd give it a shot if it were me.
