Mikrotik and Wifi
one of the reasons i switched all AP to Aruba and keep the tik as router, switch

restarted my mini again and now it seems to run fine, keeping my fingers crossed

Done update mine to macOS 15.0 as well. 😊

Ppl reporting same thing at Mikrotik forums.
https://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?p=1098270

But they have IOS 18.0 problems also while I only have macOS 15.0 problems. One also reported probs with UBNT.

Anyone here using Macs with Mikrotik routers?

Possible. Intel based Mac will be outdated quite soon or even become vintage products soon…

mikrotik have nice low level features that you can tweak it all the way but damn when the whole house is apple only, it's just a pain.


well, 6 years already, probably give it another 1-2 years then repurpose it as proxmox server

My Mac Mini M2 Pro just received notification to update to macOS 15 Sequoia.
I think I'm gonna hold on for few more days/weeks to see any potential problems could arise.

appreciate if you guys could share your experience after updating to Sequoia. thanks.

Done upgrade my M2 Mac Mini during weekend but now if wan iPhone mirroring, need turn on Wi-Fi always :\
(All the while i'm wired)

Other wise, i think not much big changes.

why need to turn on wifi? only works on wifi?

Before using mirroring, it must turn on Wi-Fi
Else will not proceed.

Wah interesting… only wifi works..

Posted this in iPhone thread earlier. Thought I'd post here also since can use for Macs. In case anyone wants a cheap and small 10Gbps external SSD.


Orico NVME 2230 USBC 10 Gbps Magsafe Enclosure. https://s.lazada.com.my/s.lBUtX

Actually got this last month but only installed the SSD today. Exactly RM60 so perfect match for Laz's 60-30 voucher.


Blackmagic Disk Speed test done on MacBook Air M1.

• Currently using a 256GB SK Hynix NVME SSD taken from laptop. Not the fastest SSD but not bad.
• Enclosure is USB 3.1 Gen 2 10Gbps which matches the iPhone 16 Pro. Unsure if iPhone 16 Pro is USB 3.1 Gen 2 or USB 3.2 1x2.
• It's magnetic and snaps on very securely onto the back of my iPhone 13 Pro not that I can use it there.
• A short 10Gbps USBC cable is included which can also be used for transferring from old phone to new phone and connecting to computer.
• RTL9210 chipset

this look good, have you tried larger NVME disk with the drive and attaching it to the iPhone?
mine orico enclosure seems to work with smaller capacity NVME drive, but when i plug in my Samsung 970 1TB, it just won't mount it like 9 out of 10 times

But it does not work with iphone 14 series and below right if wan record video and save into external disk.
Even with the Lightning to USB 3 adapter.

Unfortunately not, the only 2230 SSD I have is a 256GB. My 1TB and 2TB 2280s are in Acasis TBT3 enclosures which works fine.

Yeah, I guess won't work since lightning port is USB2 speed of 480Mbps. Probably too slow.

no, even iPhone 15 does not have such ability to directly save into external disk

Possible to hibernate a Mac mini or iMac?

iphone 15 pro can....
