I have a cablemodem with 2 ethernet ports, and I can receive up to 5 dynamic public IPs Port 1 is connected to my existing home network Port 2 is connected to a new hAP^2 that I'm using as a lab. On the hAP^2, what I would like to accomplish, is to create a virtual AP that is bound to the WAN port, ...

I decided to do some testing today while I had the time, and wanted to see if my results are typical for speed differences between IPsec and OpenVPN. I have 4 routers, all virtual machines on an esxi server test environment, with gigabit virtual networks. All virtual routers were running RouterOS x8...

This fixed it; seems I still have a lot more to learn about filters! Thanks!

I'm having some difficulties wrapping my head around this.. Here's what I have. OpenVPN Server - Router1 public static IP - 192.168.10.1/24 - ether1 OpenVPN Client - Router2 public DHCP assigned IP - 192.168.20.1/24 - ether1 I have an OpenVPN client on Router2 that can successfully connect to Router...

Well, fixed the issue. After beating my head against the wall some more, I finally stumbled across this thread http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?t=54496 . All I had to do was set Promiscuous Mode to "accept" on the vSwitch properties, and voila, it's working like it should. So, moral...

I'm trying to a setup a portable mikrotik box, to allow myself L2 connectivity to my LAN from remote networks. I have done this several years ago, but have lost the configs of how I set it up. Here's what I have so far. Router 1 - x86 ether1 - static public IP ether2 - no IP, connected directly to p...

generated quite a bit of traffic across the network that ether2 is attached to, and still nothing showing on ether1. still weird, but, at least it's doing what I want right now.

uhm... this is odd/spooky... I removed the bridge, recreated it, built it the same exact way, and now I'm no longer seeing traffic from ether2 with torch on ether1...

I setup a small lab router on esxi with 2 ethernet ports. Ether1 - ip of 10.10.0.1/24 Ether2 - no ip address given, but attached to a busy network off the host machine I created a bridge with only Ether2 attached If I run torch on Ether1, I am seeing traffic from Ether2? Is there not a way to isolat...

I was looking around for anyone who had experience with the RB922UAGS-5HPacD-NM, but, nothing to be found. So, figured I'd add some info I came across. My intention was to build a dual-radio AP for my house. I am using an RB751, which works great, except on my mac equipment. Since Apple cripples 40m...

FWIW, dude v4.0beta3 is still working on my x86 machine even after it was upgraded to 6.18

I appreciate that. As inexpensive as they are though, I think I'll just purchase another, and use this one as a backup. It doesn't seem to be affecting the performance/stability of the router as long as I keep the port disabled.

powered the router down for ~2 minutes, powered back on, and ethernet 1 still shows an active 10m full duplex link even without anything plugged into port 1.

I have setup the link to the wisp on ether2, and it works fine.

pretty sure i have a faulty ethernet 1 port at this point.

After an electrical storm (no direct hits taken), the router I setup for my parents at their house quit passing traffic to their wisp. Today, went to their house, and first thing I noticed that was odd, was that ethernet 1 was training up at 10m *full* duplex, to the wisp's equipment, which is 100M....

Can't figure this one out on my own, so, I'm hoping someone here can help out. What I'm trying to do, is to setup an EoIP link between my home RB750, and another RB750 (both running 6.1) at my office. Both have their own private subnets (for home/office device connectivity), and are currently connec...

Not sure if anyone else has come across this issue or not, but, after upgrading to OSX Mountain Lion, I noticed I could no longer connect to any APs. The only one I could connect to was one that was still using WEP (yeah, I know...). I'm almost %110 sure this is an OSX related issue, but, I finally ...

I admit, I always have a problem of trying to over complicate things... So, trying to simplify things, and nixing the vlans... On the ethernet ports on the routers for the wireless bridge between the two... Currently company A's router has an ip address in the subnet of Company B's network. Can't I ...

Just an update. I didn't experience any more issues after updating to 5.18. Recently updated to 5.19, and still no issues.

Awesome; thanks for the help!

I ordered and setup the following equipment for 2 businesses. The 2 owners are friends, and they have agreed to use each other's internet connections for failover in case the other's ISP fails. Each location hasa miktrok RB751G router, a RB250GS switch, and a SXT 5HPnD radio (setup as a bridge betwe...

There are two ways to collect information, SNMP or Router OS. Router OS is only supported by Mikrotik applications. SNMP is an open standard. You will want to use SNMP unless there is a specific reason you need ROS. what would be some reasons to use ROS over SNMP? Any differences in speed and packe...

I agree, a native dude client for linux would be nice... But, I haven't found a need yet for what I use the dude for, to need a linux server install. Maybe I just didn't see it listed before, but, here was my solution, since I refuse to run anything "server" on a windows machine. I have a ...

What is the difference between "snmp" and "routeros" in the Mastering Type option?

My apologies if this has been answered before, but, I can't seem to find any posts regarding this.

I have an RB751 running 5.12, and I'm hitting this particular issue. I have a macbook and a mac mini, both connecting via wifi. If I want to vnc (or access anything remotely) from my macbook to my mac mini, I have to first log into the RB751 and ping the mac mini before the mac mini responds to anyt...
