  Gasp, that explains the odd behavior when I click on something slightly out of place on the dude map. I'm so very used to closing accidental mikrotik.com popups that it was weird when it didn't happen.... - Source: Reddit / 10 months ago

• Max tx-power

  In the product page of each wireless product on mikrotik.com, there is a table showing the maximum Tx power for each data rate.

• Is worth investing in a 10 Gb switch for only a few devices?

  I believe that the most economical way to get into a bigger 10GbE is Mikrotik and Direct Attach (Twinax) cables.

The PoE is handy - it powers phones, access points, Raspberry Pis, other switches, and so on. - Source: Reddit / 11 months ago

  Thank you in advance, it is just annoying that I cannot go to this specific website, and the irony is if I search google and add mikrotik.com I never get the right result because the website resolves for everyone else and it returns issues of people on the mikrotik forums with other websites and their mikrotik devices and not a general issue like mine.

• Ubiquiti Developer Charged with Extortion, Causing 2020 “Breach”

  The usual answer I've found to this question is Microtik, they strike a similar balance between enterprise feature-set and more consumer level price point as Ubiquiti sort of aims for with the Unifi line. The quality/feature set is there and the software is really well designed, even if not as networking beginner-friendly as Unifi has become. https://mikrotik.com/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
