For recovery purposes, it is possible to boot the device for reinstallation, see section Buttons and Jumpers.

Mode button

The mode button is located on the back of the unit, on the right side. The default configuration for the Mode button enables dark mode.
To turn off all LEDs, press the Mode button briefly once.
To turn the LEDs back on, press the button again.
The button can also be configured in RouterOS to execute user-defined scripts.

Sync button

The sync button is located on the top of the unit. WPS Sync button, if configured on the wireless interface, can be used to connect new clients.

  • Press and hold the WPS button for 1 – 5 seconds to enable WPS for wireless interfaces.

Front LED status


  1. Wireless network activity.
  2. Ethernet port activity.
  3. System LED.
  4. Signal strength.

Cellular connection technology based on the System LED color:
Red: GSM
Yellow: 3G
Blue: LTE
Green: 5G NSA
Violet: 5G SA 

When LTE is not connected to the network, the system LED will blink red to indicate that there is some issue with the LTE connection. If the LTE interface is intentionally disabled (not being used), the system LED will glow blue.

SIM slot usage

SIM card slot is designed to use with Micro SIM cards.
Nano SIM cards have different thicknesses, usage with an adapter is not recommended.

eSIM settings

By default the device is configured to use the SIM slot. To use the on-board eSIM, switch the slot by using the following command: /interface/lte/settings/set sim-slot=esim

A single eSIM chip can store multiple eSIM profiles, the maximum profile count depends on the eSIM chip used.

Reset button

The reset button has three functions:

  • Hold this button during boot time until the green LED light starts flashing, release the button to reset RouterOS configuration (total 5 seconds).
  • Keep holding for 5 more seconds, LED turns solid, release now to turn on CAP mode. The device will now look for a CAPsMAN server (total of 10 seconds).
  • To reinstall RouterOS using the Netinstall utility, enter the device into BOOTP mode. There are two types of booters available: the regular booter and the backup booter.
    • Regular booter - Power on the device, wait 1-2 seconds, then press and hold the Reset button. Wait until the System LED is blinking green, then turns solid "On". When the green LED turns "Off", release the Reset button - the device will enter BOOTP mode.
    • Backup booter – Power off the device, press and hold the Reset button, then power it on. Wait until the System LED is blinking green, then solid "On". When the green LED turns "Off", release the Reset button - the device will enter BOOTP mode using the backup booter.

Regardless of the above option used, the system will load the backup RouterBOOT loader if the button is pressed before power is applied to the device. Useful for RouterBOOT debugging and recovery.

Netinstall

When performing Netinstall, make sure to use the latest v7 version of both ROS files and the Netinstall software.
