LTE, no connection, missing route?

Sat May 05, 2018 10:01 pm

that you everyone for earlier support, however, i just got a new device with LTE built in. Everything seems to work fine, i can ping and trace-route from mikrotik, but not traffic to LAN or DHCP-server clients. I'm still learning, thus hoped someone can point me to what I'm missing. Here is the present config.
[admin@MikroTik] > export

System is not showing routing table, so here it is manually:

I get a feeling that i'm missing a route...

I have not used LTE routers but have a feeling this should be your problem
/ip dhcp-client
add comment=defconf dhcp-options=hostname,clientid disabled=no interface=ether1
change interface to your LTE interface and enable add default route.

give it a try

cant make those changes... the specs are locked after setting it up through LTE interface.

I had simular issue when the router was getting traffic and resolving DNS but clients wouldn't in L2TP/IPSEC situation, Sindy was able to guide me and explain.

Now, I'm experiencing similar symptoms but now with LTE.

cannot have a dhcp-client on LTE interface?
well, you can still set up static route for outboud traffic
add dst-address=0.0.0.0/0 gateway=gateway of LTE connection (or just the LTE interface)
Edit: just checked your config again, this route is already added, not sure why now.c Maybe change the gateway=:LTE to the gateway IP of LTE connection ?

The problem is that similar symptoms may not have the same root cause.

I haven't really understood from your initial post what is working and what is not, but I can see that you tell your DHCP clients to use your Mikrotik as a default gateway but you don't tell them what DNS server to use:
/ip dhcp-server network
add address=192.168.88.0/24 comment=defconf gateway=192.168.88.1
So you should use the following command:
/ip dhcp-server network set [find address="192.168.88.0/24"] dns-server=192.168.88.1
(as your dns settings say you permit yourself as a DNS server for others).
