Automatic upgrade
The automatic upgrade feature connects to the MikroTik download servers, and checks if there is a new RouterOS version for your device. If yes, a changelog is displayed, and Upgrade button is shown. Clicking the upgrade button, software packages are automatically downloaded, and device will be rebooted. Even if you have a custom set of packages installed, only the correct packages will be downloaded.
Note: If you are running v5.25 or older, the system will only auto-upgrade to the most recent version of the v5 major version release and not up to v6.20. Manual upgrade is needed in this case.
Upgrade button in QuickSet:
Upgrade button in the Packages menu:
After clicking the Upgrade button, Changelog is shown:
By clicking 'Download & Upgrade', downloads will start, and router will reboot. After the reboot, your router will be running the latest RouterOS version. You can then click the Upgrade button again, to confirm that your router is running the latest RouterOS.
RouterOS version release chains
When upgrading RouterOS, you can choose a release chain from which to install the new packages. For mission critical installations, bugfixes-only release chain is suggested, as it does not include freshly added new features and is kept for a long time on the download page, with only critical fixes applied to it.
- Bugfixed-only version is the most stable release without new features, just most important fixes. Updated rarely, only when a critical issue is found in a bugfixes-only release.
- Current includes the same fixes plus improvements and new features. Once a current release has been tested for several months, it is promoted to bugfix-only and is no longer updated with features.
- Release candidate released a few times per week. Includes newest features, released without intensive testing. Not recommended for production.
Note: Since RouterOS v6.44beta6 release channels have been renamed - 'bugfix' to 'long-term', 'current' to 'stable' and 'release candidate' to 'testing'.
Manual upgrade methods
You can upgrade RouterOS in the following ways:
- Winbox – drag and drop files to the Files menu
- WebFig - upload files from Files menu
- FTP - upload files to root directory

The Dude hierarchical upgrade
For complicated networks, when routers are connected sequentially, the simplest example is 1router-2router-3router connection. You might get an issue, 2router will go to reboot before packages are uploaded to the 3router. The solution is Dude groups, the feature allows to group routers and upgrade all of them by one click!
- Select group and click Upgrade (or Force Upgrade),
License issues
When upgrading from older versions, there could be issues with your license key. Possible scenarios:
- When upgrading from RouterOS v2.8 or older, the system might complain about expired upgrade time. To override this, use Netinstall to upgrade. Netinstall will ignore old license restriction and will upgrade
- When upgrading to RouterOS v4 or newer, the system will ask you to update license to a new format. To do this, ensure your Winbox PC (not the router) has a working internet connection without any restrictions to reach www.mikrotik.com and click 'update license' in the license menu.
Version numbering
RouterOS versions are numbered sequentially, when a period is used to separate sequences, it does not represent a decimal point, and the sequences do not have positional significance. An identifier of 2.5, for instance, is not 'two and a half' or 'half way to version three', it is the fifth second-level revision of the second first-level revision. Therefore v5.2 is older than v5.18, which is newer.
RouterOS versions are released in several 'release chains': Long-term, Stable and Beta.
- Beta: Released every few days, only undergoes basic internal testing, should not be used in production
- Stable: Released every few weeks, includes all tested features and fixes
- Long term: Released rarely, and includes only the most important fixes, upgrades within one number branch not add new features. When a Stable release has been out for a while and seems to be stable enough, it gets promoted into the Long Term branch, replacing an older release, which is then moved to Archive. This consecutively adds new features.
