For those who, like me, struggled to have ROS running on Apple Silicon. I'm sharing the config that, for me, solved the issue:
I'm running UTM Version 4.5.3 (99) on Apple M2 Max, Sonoma 14.5.

Hope it helps.

Thanks for spending time helping me!

First of all, thanks for help! I'm not sure if I understand correctly: this script will fix the the route acting on the gateway assigned dynamically with the DHCP from the provider. I get that. However, I understand that you're suggesting to enable its automatic creation via the dhcp client. What's ...

Hey!

Indeed, putting ether5 in the gateway field of the manually created default route does not work (router accepts it but i don’t have connectivity) and gateway changes every now and then. I mean, could be the same for three hours but then changes.

No, I was forced to move it in a central position of the house where the signal is not great. So I introduced an LHGG outside pointed directly to the BTS which is in LoS fortunately. I did not like having a double NAT setup so I configured the LHGG as a simple modem. It almost works just fine, if on...

I have followed another route that somehow solved my case. I have scheduled this script to run every 10 seconds. # Script to adjust route availability based on DHCP lease status for ether5, with logging # Check the status of DHCP lease for ether5 :local dhcpStatus [/ip dhcp-client get [find interfac...

You're right, exactly. The setup looks like this: an LHGG with LTE interface who pass via passthrough the public dynamic IP to the WAN port of a Chateau device. Basically the LHGG acts as a modem, and all routing happens on the Chateau (router). On this router, the WAN port is configured with dhcp c...

Hey thanks for the answer! What part you think is relevant? It's pretty big and full of many private information that would be time-consuming to redact all.

Hello I've setup a simple dual WAN setup, according to this: https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/display/ROS/Load+Balancing First default route, is coming from a dhcliet from the main ISP. The second rule, with distance of 2, is going through to another ISP. Problem here is, it seems I can't configure th...

Is this a bug?

Thanks, but it has plenty. It's a 16gb USB stick.

Hi all, no matter what I try, I'm not able to run the Uptime-Kuma on my router. While I can successfully run a pihole container, numa always hangs during the layers download phase. See the screenshot for details. Logs don't show anything meaningful. Is there something I can do to troubleshoot this i...

Thanks a lot! Appreciate your help guys

Amazing guys, thanks for you help and responsiveness!

I've looked at RIPv2 as protocol, is it worth the time?

It certainly helps, thank you! Network topology, now, is simply a star network diagram where all the nodes rely on a central router that routes traffic between branches. The purpose of this network is to exchange little txt files between nodes mainly for automation purposes. If I got it correctly: n...

Apologies, I should have made it clear: the backup router has a public address. I can't mesh the branches between each other. Am I understanding correctly? Problem is not the backup router but a method to automatically switch the routes when the primary router goes down. I'm completely ignorant of d...

I'm afraid I can't because the branches are using 4g/5g connectivity behind a double(maybe triple) nat from the telco provider and not even with public IP addresses. I can't implement a wireguard endpoint listening for connections. I was thinking of configuring new wireguard tunnels from branches to...

take one of the most feasible branch as backup point. and start making a partial mesh topology heading to those 2 route server (hq and that new backup point). after that - try to use dynamic routing protocol such as rip or ospf on those 5 sites (adjust which protocol suits your requirements). Thank...

Will the second central (backup) node be on LAN with the primary central node?

No it's a totally different site: another location, another provider, another connectivity.

For the scheme, apologies I don't have a precise diagram but actually is something like that: https://ibb.co/ccPxxkR

Hi all we have 4 branch offices that establish Wireguard tunnels to a central router that routes traffic in the each peers with a series of custom static routes allowing each branch offices to communicate with each other. The weak point is clear here: the central router. Ideally we would create anot...

Apologies, I should have made clear: we have different hosts running different hypervisors virtualising different VMs. All hypervisors connect to the same AP hence share the same network segment.

Some of the VMs should be able to talk each other, ideally ONLY to each other.

Hello, I have a fairly strange use-case scenario (for me) and I'm struggling to understand what's the best approach to use. Therefore I'm not sure if the subject is precise. :( Basically, we have a home lab where few independent hypervisors virtualise bunch of virtual machines. All hypervisors conne...
