How to connect my MikroTik device to other MikroTik HotSpot

Fri Sep 17, 2010 6:30 pm

Dear friends,
I have problem that i want to connect my MikroTik RB433UAH to other MikroTik device (the other MikroTik device use HotSpot feature to share internet access) via Wireless.
So, how to do that? I want to share the internet connection with my MikroTik.
For your information, my friend is the MikroTik owner & got full control to the MikroTik (HotSpot server). So maybe possible with setting something, but i don't know how.

Do you have any idea? Please help me with detail explanation.

Thanks,
Yudi

I think he means the second Mikrotik should log itself in at the Hotspot.
That will most likely not work - you will probably have to work with firewall rules to except the second Mikrotik from Hotspot authentication.

Maybe Walled Garden gives you the possibility to give a source IP, so you can pass all traffic from the second Mikrotik through without authentication.

why, the user behind the second hotspot router will log in. if that's not acceptable then yes, you have to make exception in the hotspot server.
