Hello, I'm pretty new to the mikrotik world and I have a very strange problem. I have a 1 gig WAN and a 500 mbps WAN each going into a port on the CR2116. They are then ratio with load balancing and there is a 10 gig SFP connection to a switch where all of the rest of the network plugs into. These a...

Hello, I did search but I might be using the wrong descriptors of my issue. I have a CCR2116 in a production environment and since we put it in, it will randomly just erase all of the user tables for the username and passwords and just puts admin back with a blank password. If any one has any idea w...

Hello, Thank you for answering me. Could you please just add a little more detail on what I would use to do that? Would that be something like Cacti? As I said I have two of them, both on different subnets but both have routable IP's. Will this one server be able to do both? The other thing is that ...

Hello, I have an x86 installation on a PC at 2 locations. I have them on UPS' but still continually reset due to extended power outages or other circumstances. As I use the data usage statistics for monthly billing, is there anyway to keep this data on reset or to send it somewhere else to be manage...

Hello, I'm not sure the exact question I'm trying to ask but here it goes. Is there some filtering that identifies bot-net type activity, or even spam activity? I nat all IPs in the subnet and am wondering if there is a procedure in the mikrotik that allows you to map internally all IPs so you can t...

Hello,

I was wondering if there was a place where I could get some more bandwidth shaping protocols for layer7 and mangle for traffic dealing with xbox live or the PS3.

Thank you

Mostly, just the amount of data the client has sent and received.

Hello, I have 2 RouterBOARDS with RouterOS v4 and v3.5 on them. Everytime the power goes out, or the unit resets, all of the user data goes back to 0. Is there a command or a way that the data, such as usage, will not dissapear everytime there is something that causes it to reboot? Thank you in adva...

Okay I tried that and the router rebooted and then it seems it lost all of the configurations. I had to use netinstall to get it back up again and it seems the key was still in there. Maybe I will request a new key. I have a new routerBOARD on the way from a supplier but I was hoping to at least sal...

The file is on the ftp server now and below is what I'm getting in the new terminal window. The file contains the key the way you described above. [admin@CCCS MikroTik] > /system license import file-name=new1.key failure: invalid key [admin@CCCS MikroTik] > /system license import file-name=new1.key ...

I am reading on how to do that now. I got the key in an email as text. It starts with ---------BEGIN MIKROTIK KEY--- and then there are 2 lines of characters and then the same line to end it. Do I make a *.key file and upload that to the ftp server, or do I cut out the -------BEGIN MIKROTIK KEY-----...

Hello, I have a 532A RouterBoard with V4.4 on it. This unit has been working this way for the past couple of months until one day I logged into Winbox and it said that the license would expire in 24 hours. I tried getting a hold of tech support but it was too late before the time ran out. I have bee...

I have this exact same problem as well and I have contacted support and they have provided me with a new key but I cannot get the new one to stick. I have tried through winbox, hyperterminal, and the new terminal in winbox and still without success. If anyone has any ideas what I'm doing, I would re...

I am having this problem as well and Mikrotik has sent me a new key, but no matter what I do I cannot get the key to stick. I have tried pasting the whole key in the license window in Winbox, in hyperterminal, and through a terminal window in Winbox. When I do it in Winbox it just says cannot change...

Thank you for the information. What is the baud rate I should be using? It is possible that I have the wrong cable as it was hard to find one on xmas =/. Thank you again for everything.

Hello, I upgraded to v4 about 2 months ago and had updated the key. Then two days ago I log in through winbox and it says i have 24 hours to upgrade my key. I tried to update it in the pop up window but it kept failing. I also wasn't able to contact support fast enough to get a new key so that it di...

Hello, This exact same thing happened to me except I upgraded to v4 about 2 months ago and had updated the key.

Okay I got it to work like you suggested. I can't get online past the dhcp server though. Is there a NAT routing thing I must do before it will pass traffic? Thank you so very much for helping me getting this working.

Can this be done to have x.x.x.x/24 for routable IP's and then have the dhcp server running for 192.168.x.x/24 IP's all on ether 1? I have been trying to enable the DHCP server but it just stays red and invalid.

Maybe I can and I'm doing it wrong. When I thought I had it I lost remote connectivity. When I plugged into it directly it seemed that the traffic was stuck in a loop. Am I able to have both of the ports plugged into a switch? Thank you for all your help.

Hello Everyone, I work for a small WISP in Canada and we have been using the Mikrotik's for a long time. Right now our E-10 is plugged into the E1 port of the Mikrotik and then E3 is connected to a switch that all our wireless AP's plug into. We are using a static IP setup for our clients at the mom...
