![]() Which of course means it can forward the NMEA data to a TCP server, and also cache it, and also log it to a file, and you can configure this all per-sentence type, and you can enable an HTTPS server to provide it, and it supports multiple AVL protocols for vehicle location tracking, and it has a rules engine, and a geofencing system, and it can trigger GPIO pin signals. My go-to was PCEngines APU2 but AMD no longer supports/produces CPU it uses so it is near-discontinuedįor example, this router has a GPS antenna. It is different enough from anything else networking and different from linux commands that I have zero intuition for it. The one thing that makes me steer away from Mikrotik is its CLI. > On a tangentially related note I recently found another manufacturer that is very similar to MikroTik: Teltonika. I think (not sure) RouterOS reimplemented a lot of networking for whatever reason instead of just using Linux facilities, and that bug would suggest that, as otherwise it would also show up in vanilla linux (I guess it could be in userspace tool not in kernel?) In what way ? If it is just "let's expose every feature of linux kernel underneath and add some" I wouldn't be worried. > Their firmware strategy seems to be going for implementing every feature under the sun, so I'd be a bit concerned about the robustness of some of the edge cases, but no problems yet. There's some bugs in the gui too around routing tables too. The Ruts config is spread all over the file system and it's not obvious to me yet how to manage that. I really like the wireguard connection, makes it easy to see what's going, and they're a nice little box anyway.Ĭonfiguration isn't good though - a mikrotik has a nice simple "/export terse" to see how it's configured and easilly apply. Those ruts are now on the way to be in use at a site near Poole to do 3 sim cards worth of connectivity to some remote locations. The other sim had fortunatly managed to connect to a French 4G provider.Īnother location had issues with the venue internet so again rut to the rescue, but another location had no 4g coverage at all so wired did the job. Just before the broadcast started the "ethernet" circuit dropped off, as did one of the sims. In Dover sim coverage was patchy, as was the "ethernet line" (which I believe was a 60G wireless link across the harbour). I set up a wireguard tunnel from the RUT so I could have remote management to the rut and to the tieline gateway providing the comms over one of the sims, in addition to my normal tunnel from the mikrotik. ![]() Used a mikrotik for the third off some venue network which varied depending on the location. The RUTs have decent modems and took two sim cards, and could be configured with routing policies to effectively have two independent paths out. I used their rut to provide 2 paths out for comms to 10 locations around the UK for a high profile Outside Broadcast a couple of weeks ago.
