If u wans access router via winbox you have to do as following

set hotspot port as
/ip services set hotspot 80
and www port as
/ip services set www 8081

and define ip address on router's local interface like
192.168.1.1/29 as wel as 192.168.1.2/26 ip on your local PCs from where to access winbox.

now download winbox keeping address 192.168.1.1:8081

double click on winbox and put 192.168.1.1:8081 in winbox

or follow the following link for more details
