Hello, We offer facebook login through the mikrotik captive portal for public hotspots, so a user can quickly sign-up and receive free public wifi. We have had sporadic reports from a number of users where their account is being "temporarily locked" and they have to provide identification ...

Hi, we have recently add a NAT rule that takes all HTTP port 80 traffic and sends it through a specific IP / Port. This all works fine if the user has already authenticated and therefore past the hotspot however if they havent i get the error "xxx refused to connect" I understand this rule...

Does anyone have any idea? I have the exact same issue with a new batch shipped with 6.35.4

Kind regards, Mal

Hi, I have been trying to get a mikrotik 951 to successfully forward all non-https TCP traffic to a specifc ip address and port but have had no success. I have looked into NAT firewall rules and Web proxies but i cannot get this working. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Kind regards, Mal

Has this issue ever been resolved?

Weve seen issues on pretty much every version from 6.29 onwards (havent really tested before).

I can find lots of topics regarding intermittent DNS failures but no concrete answer.

Hi, We put multiple 951s into venues currently with captive portal technology, unfortuntely the way our system has been developed, each AP acts completely independenty and roaming between access points brings up another captive portal authnentication, which is expected behaviour. We want to do this ...

Hi, We’re seeing a lot of the following error message in the logs of one of our boxes and im not really sure what it means. hotspot-prohibited forward: in:bridge-hotspot out:bridge-venue, src-mac b4:6d:83:1f:05:6d, proto TCP (SYN), 172.18.25.21:64646->172.16.0.50:389, len 52 Can you tell me what thi...

Hi there, I was wondering, we utilise 951s to provide captive portal (w/ internet) to businesses, we have just enabled "graphing" and i have a question going forward. Our 951s have 128MiB of storage inside them, we have graphing setup to "every 5 minutes" with "store on disk...

HI Steve, Thanks for your response. Their is a few things we would like to be looked at / fixed and as the work is quite detailed and would require divulging access details etc i would prefer to do it in a more private setting. Im also looking to outsource this completely as i currently do not have ...

Id be willing to speak to non-uk people as maybe these problems could be solved completely remotely if anyone else would like to talk

Hi everyone, Im not sure if this is the best place to post but couldnt find a more suitable place. We are a company located in the north east of england and are looking to hire an mikrotik expert to solve some problems we have with our setup. We are looking to solve some fairly trivial issues i woul...

Hi, I am having an issue remotely accessing our Mikrotik boxes due to an hardware failure of a 750GL in our office that was handling all 10.200.x traffic (we assign this range to the mikrotiks) redirecting the requests to our centralised RouterOS server that holds active VPN connections to all other...

Thanks guys, some really valuable responses there. When my box dies after the mis-configuration is there anyway to access any sort of log to get a hint of what is wrong? I can no longer connect via winbox when this occurs and i must do a reset to get the box accessible again, obviously clearing any ...

Hi guys, long time lurker, first time poster! We utilise Miktrotiks (RB951Ui -2HnD) for captive portal hotspots and after receiving a "fresh batch" of Mikrotiks our config system no longer works, after putting the config on the box when the box reboots it comes back up in an "broken&q...
