Hello @achachej,
This is the post (earlier on in the forum) that @sitloongs is referring to where we spoke about the MTU settings.

Happy to Help,

Wondering why the Default Outbound policy rule has to be on “Auto” in order to get info for the WAN Quality tab on Status…

Dear All, after the firmware update the performance wifi are no good… I’ve try to reconfigure but without solution.
Before with 5ghz 178mbit down and 48upload. Now 30mbit download.
Any idea? Thanks in advanced.

Just to confirm when you downgrade using the previous firmware , immediately you can get 5ghz 178mbit down and 48upload (Make sure the same 5Ghz channel is use) ? If yes, please open a support ticket here for support team to check.

For Firmware 7.1 implementation, “at least a single Lowest Latency Outbound Policy need to defined” or "Default Outbound Policy is set to auto in-order to get the statistic for the WAN Quality report.

Sample WAN Quality report:

We may change/improve this in future firmware so that user can have better control over the WAN Quality report

Hi Team,
We’ve noticed that in the 7.1.0 firmware we cannot rearrange the WAN priority on the dashboard yet the Priority levels remain listed. Not sure if the Priority levels should be changed to read WAN1, Cell1 etc to match the Balance line, or if the inability to drag them was unintended. I have particularly seen this on the Transit and the BR1.
In the example below, we were unable to move the cellular WAN to priority one and have the Wired WAN as a backup.

Hello,

I am using BR1 firmware 7.1.0 and I don’t have such a problem. I can prioritize the connections by selecting them from the left side of the bar. With previous versions you could move from any point of the bar.

BR,
Gorka

Thanks @gorka_iza, I appreciate the help, that’s exactly what I was missing. It’s changed a little, but the functionality is still there.

Hello @sitloongs,
We have just noticed the the DPI functionality is not working for the MAX BR1 ENT in 7.1.0, there is a thread on this with @TK_Liew that mentioned this would be available in 7.1.0.

Also the WINS Servers option is missing for the LAN connections in the MAX BR! ENT in firmware 7.1.0, can we seek getting that added to?
Appreciate your assistance,
Marcus :slight_smile:

Hi Marcus,

For BR1 ENT and BR1 series, we don’t support WINS. Do you mean you have that before but missing on 7.1.0!?

Thanks,
Eddy

@mldowling, I have provided my answer in ticket#777636. WINS is not supported in BR1 series.

For DPI report, I will reconfirm again.

Thanks.

Thanks @TK_Liew & @Eddy_Yeung,
We have created a feature request for the WINS Server in the MAX BR1 ENT.

@Eddy_Yeung, I am unsure if there has previously been a WINS Server, it is unlikely it existed previously…

@TK_Liew, thanks for looking again into the DPI Report option.

Appreciate your assistance,

Afternoon
We have noticed that in 7.1.0, we can no longer view the AP controller password for external APs under “Web Administration Settings (on External AP)”

7.1.0

7.0.2

In the past there was a little “Hide Characters” button below the password field as in the image above.

Have seen this on a Balance ONE and Transit DUO

Thank You
