Menurut Mengenal System BIOS di RouterBoard :
sistem bios ini cukup berguna ketika kita mengalami permasalahan pada RouterBoard, misalnya RouterBoard tiba-tiba mati dan tidak kembali menyala. Langkah troubleshooting sederhana bisa kita lakukan dengan mengamati proses yang terjadi dengan akses pada RouterBoot atau bootloader RouterBoard. Akses bios RouterBoard bisa dilakukan via serial port dengan kabel RS232/DB9.

How can I install additional feature packages?
...Check the free space on router's HDD using the /system resource print command before uploading the package files. You have to have at least 2MB free disk space on the router after you have uploaded the package files!

If I do upgrade RouterOS, will I lose my configuration?
...When upgrading version families (for example, V2.5 to V2.6) you may lose the configuration of some features that have major changes. For example when upgrading from V2.4, you should upgrade to the last version of 2.4 first.

About Microsoft Security Essential

Microsoft Security Essentials anti-malware definitions now available via WSUS
31 Mar 2010
http://blogs.technet.com/b/wsus/archive/2010/03/31/microsoft-security-essentials-anti-malware-definitions-now-available-via-wsus.aspx

Quote:
This was done because academic institutions around the world (particularly in Asia) provide students with low cost or free internet access and provide students with update services through WSUS. Many students are protecting their computers with Security Essentials, and the universities requested that the definition updates be provided via WSUS.

So it is now allowed to be used by Academic Institutions? Compare with the quote below...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Security_Essentials says:
Microsoft allows home users to freely download, install and use Microsoft Security Essentials on an unlimited number of their computers in their households, so long as each computer has a genuine copy of Microsoft Windows. Small businesses are allowed to install on up to 10 devices, whereas use is prohibited on enterprise, government and academic institutions.

Microsoft Security Essentials checks for validity of the operating system during and after installation. If the operating system is found to be not genuine, Microsoft Security Essentials will notify the user of the issue, and may cease to operate after a period of time
