'all packages' is the name of the file, the UI on the website says 'extra packages' I use a hAP ac2 which is ARM-based, so for me the link was We are now upgrading to latest stable release but with a minimum set of packages (this is the unbundling part) system Copy these three files to the root of your files. Reboot, this will actually disable the packages.ĭownload all packages zip file for 6.49.2 and unzip. After downgrading you need to reboot.ĭisable all the packages you can including these system => packages => open => disable: advanced tools If you already have a different version than latest stable then you can just ignore this step. I simply set the channel to LTS and then installed. Make a backup and export, save them on your PC files => backupĭowngrade to another version, I was on stable 6.49.2 and downgraded to LTS 6.48.6. If any of this terminology is unfamiliar you will probably want to not proceed this way I don’t use winbox and never have so I can’t help out with any questions related to that I’m comfortable using the CLI but I was able to do most of this using the WebUI

The remote network is Comcast/Xfinity, for whatever reason I had to remote reboot the modem using Comcast/Xfinity app after upgrading in order to get the network back online I also had a remote machine available to SSH into separately, though it was dependent on the router working :) I had an address list setup with my local static IP to allow remote SSH access.

This was a remote environment that was not at all crucial, I just wanted to see if I could upgrade to v7 and setup wireguard while sitting on my couch This post has all the majority of the information which was helpful but I will copy/paste below: Not really a ton that I had to actually do after a lot of trial and error, the gist of it is I had to unbundle v6 packages so that I had enough space to finally just upgrade to 7.1 using the web ui. I was fine if things went wrong because this was just a remote location that was low priority that I could travel to if things went wrong. I had the opportunity to figure out how to remotely upgrade my router in another location to 7.1.
