Unable to Upgrade ROS to 6.36 from any ROS prior to 6.33.5

Support General
1

Situation: Unable to upgrade ROS from any version prior to 6.35.4 to 6.36

Symptom: After copying the upgrade .npk file to the root of the Files in Winbox and /system reboot, the ROS version does not upgrade.

Cause: As of ROS 6.36, the “wireless-fp” package has been discontinued, therefore if the package is enabled, the ROS will not upgrade.

Solution: Under System Packages, disable the package “wireless-fp” and gracefully reboot.

Excerpt from Mikrotik Changelog:

Follow the above yes. I have upgraded all my rbs to 6.36 forgot about 1 copied over the ros package and rebooted and lost all the wireless settings (did not disable package) :frowning: the rest i did like above copied over the ros package and then disabled the wireless-fp package then rebooted everything stayed :slight_smile: the new ros that is coming out the wireless-cm package will be removed and the package will be named “wireless” again
