Re: Trying to change a cheap TP-Link router for a cheap MikroTik one

If I understand correctly, all the interfaces but the eth 1 (WAN) are on bridge, right?

Re: Trying to change a cheap TP-Link router for a cheap MikroTik one

Oh, sorry. It's not like that. I changed the IPs on the .txt before paste it here. In this case, the network is 192.168.8.0/24, with no DHCP, so the DHCP range shouldn't matter, right? So, network 8.0/24, gateway 8.1 and no DHCP (the DHCP box is unchecked on the quick config screen. The PCs have sta...

Re: Trying to change a cheap TP-Link router for a cheap MikroTik one

There are no new configs. I just took a brand new Router, put the network and PPPoE, disabled DHCP and plugged the ethernet cables. (Without any kind of filter or any other config beyod the basic) Someone said that the bridge may be the problem. But why that would be a problem with a certain network...

Re: Trying to change a cheap TP-Link router for a cheap MikroTik one

This seems dead, but I will continue updating.
I just connected the router (using another PPPoE user) to a clean switch. From the router I went to another router on bridge mode (needed for DSL) and connected two PCs into the switch.
The PCs with static IP. The router without DHCP. It worked.

Re: Trying to change a cheap TP-Link router for a cheap MikroTik one

About the last sentence, can you tell me how to work around the blocking method that I found? It would be of help. Any VPN service will cut around your efforts... and when you want to block those too you will again have a lot of services to watch and block. So, by just using Opera (that has VPN) I ...

Re: Trying to change a cheap TP-Link router for a cheap MikroTik one

Because there are apparently so many overzealous operators who want to restrict what their clients can visit, there are many examples of "block this block that" configs to be found. Unfortunately the usually block much more than the (usually beginner) poster knows, and others become the v...

Re: Trying to change a cheap TP-Link router for a cheap MikroTik one

Well.. I did the change with a MikroTik router with just PPPoE user and pass, LAN IP (192.168.8.0/24) and DHCP disabled. It didn't worked. I have no fucking clue of what the problem might be. Can it be something that is configured on the TP-Link and it's missing on the MikroTik? Hello, ... EDIT: I ...

Re: Trying to change a cheap TP-Link router for a cheap MikroTik one

The config does not look so bad, so you will have to debug it. First check if the PPPoE interface is coming up and obtains an external IP address. Then try with your censorship dropping and marking rules disabled to see if they maybe block all the traffic. Note that such filtering is very CPU inten...

Trying to change a cheap TP-Link router for a cheap MikroTik one

I have to change a TP-Link router that is configured with a PPPoE user. I was told that putting the MikroTik on PPPoE with the same user and password, the router on the same network (192.168.8.0/24, with .1 as gateway) and no DHCP (all the PCs have static IP on Windows) it will work. But it doesn't...
