Hey! A fellow mikrotik enjoyer!

Their equipment is fun but there sure are a lot of ways to cut off your own hands. I wish more manufacturers implemented safe mode like they do, it makes tinkering and figuring things out much easier

Honestly I'm just using mine as a basic switch at the moment. It was the cheapest 12-port 10GBase-T switch I could find at the time I bought it, but all the extra features in their OS are a nice bonus.

Mikrotik devices can all do basically anything, Router OS is a powerful tool. Learning curve can be pretty intense, but they’re great devices and run a surprising amount of infrastructure.

Off the top of my head I know they’re used by ISPs, law enforcement, EMS, and some military applications as integrated hardware- particularly in the eu.

Anyway, interesting stuff

I bought a mikrotik router a few months back and honestly love the thing couldn't be happier.

They’re rock solid reliable, I’ve see the things work for years in an in non climate controlled uninsulated shed. A lightning strike finally took that one out, literally blew the top off of it
