i am a beginner internet provider . I have a prob with pppoe clients , can i add 2 or more pppoe clients at same time and use all of them at same time each for group of customers ? ( Note : all of pppoe clients are from same isp so they could have same ip class range ) .. plz help !!

my suggestion, use hotspot instead of pppoe clients,if you still insist in using ppoe client, try to read this http://www.mikrotik.com/documentation/m ... PPPoE.html

sorry it didn't help :S .. the problem is that both pppoe-out clients are using same gateway and the route list won't accept two pppoe-out of same destination .. example
pppoe-ou1 takes ip : 172.16.189.5 in the addresses it's like this address : 172.16.189.5 network: 172.16.189.1 broadcast : 0.0.0.0
pppoe-ou2 takes ip : 172.16.189.6 address : 172.16.189.6 network: 172.16.189.1 broadcast : 0.0.0.0

both must have one gateway 172.16.189.1 to work properly


now here the real problem the route list won't accept both of them :S
and wat i really neeed is that i want to use the 1st for group of cutomers and the 2nd for another group

in the meanwhile i am obliged to put 2 mikrotik routers each for a pppoe-client .. and i really need to set this up on just one mikrotik router...
plzzzz help mee

Ok, that's an interesting problem.

I don't know RouterOS too well, but I would use 3 routers (either physical RB750 or MetaROUTER): Two for making the pppoe connections and one for doing the routing.
Or switch to an ISP which supports ML-PPPoE
