Re: Forwarding of DLNA protocols

I have a simular setup (and the same problem)

UPNP enabled radio -> wifi network -> AP -> wired Lan (vlan A)-> Microtik -> wired lan (vlan B)

this used to work a few Router OS revisions back but got broken somewhere in the last 2-3 releases (running 5.6 on my RB750G right now).

Re: Thundercache

Usually the videos are shared over facebook or other social networking sites so the chances are high for multiple hits per popular videos. Exactly - I do network design for my own ISP and I'd LOVE a box that could cache just the 10 most viewed videos from youtube somewhere central in our backbone. ...

Re: Use seperate subnet for NAT source adresses

What are you looking to do? You have a full /29, is that routed to you, or only available on your WAN? If it's routed to you, you can just have that subnet on the LAN of your router and hand out those IPs there. However if it is only available on the WAN, that means you need to assign all of the IP...

Use seperate subnet for NAT source adresses (Solved)

Hi I cant for the life of me figure out how to do this properly :) Apart from my WAN IP I have a /29 subnet that I'd like to use as source addresses for my outgoing NAT'ed trafic. How on earth does I do that ? I assume creating an adresslist containing the addresses is step 1 - but now I miss a loop...

Re: [Solved] RB750G ROS 5.2 serious performance issue.

I believe I'm having the same issue with my RB750G - with 4.17 everything was fine. I'm streaming HD videos across my RG750G from one local subnet to another and after upgrading to 5.2 I'm getting terrible performance (haven't done any 'scientific tests' but my video playback it suddenly very choppy...

Re: Using switch chip for managing vlans ?

The switch inside routerboards are hardware chips, they can't be upgraded with new functions. Yeah I tried with vlan 0 - didn't work. I agree with your statement above - I am however not trying to do anything unsupported as far as I call tell, check out the documentation on the switch chip - it's a...

Using switch chip for managing vlans ?

Hi I'm looking into using the switch chip on a pair of RB750G's to vlan segment my network at L2 - Or in other words I dont need the router to do inter-vlan routing. I can create the vlans under the switch just fine: [admin@MikroTik] /interface ethernet switch vlan> print Flags: X - disabled, I - in...

Re: Vlan Trunk issues

Well most people myself included dont want a powerhungy and noisy Catalyst switch at home - that why I bought 2 RB750G's instead ;-) If it's impossiple to create pure L2 trunk then I'll do it on L3 and live with the lower throughput - I'd like some clarification on whether it's possible or not thoug...

Re: Vlan Trunk issues

A MikroTik is not a switch, it is a router. Each VLAN that you add to an interface is it's own separate routed interface. Thanks alot for your tips - is it impossible so use the switch chip to create a Trunk interface without adding L3 interfaces ? I realise this in a L3 device but I had the impres...

Vlan Trunk issues

I recently bougt a RB750G with the intention to use it as a L3 switch with my home VMware ESX server. I'm having a hard time establishing a trunk interface to the ESX server and testing it. What I've done is remove 2 ports from the switch group ( eth3 and eth5) eth5 is the trunk port while eth3 will...

Re: RB450G / RB750G differences

According to the link there are differences in the use of the switch chip: Ether1 port on RB450G has a feature that allows it to be removed/added to the default switch group. By default ether1 port will be included in the switch group. This configuration can be changed with /interface ethernet switc...

RB450G / RB750G differences

How does the RB450G differ from the cheaper RB750G - I know the 750G has less memory and there appears to be fewer features in regards to using the switch chip - But is that all ?

I'm looking for something that can do inter-vlan routing for a small ESXi testserver.

RB450G Routing through put (with nat/fw/qos)

I looking into buying my first Routerboard - but I can't really find any info on the through-put of the 450G. What I need is the ability to route (and NAT) and firewall/filtre and apply QoS rules between a WAN port and an internal vlan - with a minimum through-put of 100 Mbps. Will the 450G be able ...
