Re: Edge Caching?

We currently have a transparent proxy using MikroTik (squid). I would advise against going with a web proxy. Several issues have come up with websites showing strange behavior, and it was the transparent webproxy that was causing the issue. FOr the little benefit it brings, it causes too many additional problems to worry about.

What ver of MT are you using?
I am using transparent proxy feature (squid) on the MikroTik Box. I have never had a call from a client that he can't access a site, im running it for 3-4 month, and it saves me 2 GB of 10GB daily download (approximately). Thats a big help for WISP that are paying expensive bandwidth.

Arnprior On.

 Really? The only ones that I saw were a problem were sites that routinely sent out of order packet streams - sometimes portions of the pages (if they were large enough) wouldn't load. Installing a bypass for the FQDN worked.... or turned off aggressive logging for that site (or even all sites if it doesn't matter to you) fixed it too - what type of issues did you see with it?
