MikroTik RouterOS is preinstalled on RouterBOARD. probably you have RouterOS.
MAC-WinboxMAC-Winbox helps you to access the RouterOS.

To (re)install MikroTik RouterOS use netinstall.

Make sure that
- the PC netinstall is running on and your router are on the same layer 2 network
- netinstall has the "boot from net" option enabled (can't remember it's real name right now...)
- the RB is configured to boot from LAN (first)

I've had some strange problems sometimes with a switch between the netinstall PC and the router. If nothing works, try a direct (cross-over) cable between router and PC.

Best regards,

Every router comes with the OS instaled?

What is the licence? Level 4?

My RB532 came with license level 5 preinstalled from WISP. I've had it about 6 months or so.

Probably. I work for an ISP and got the router from them so I'm sure they ordered it with level 5.
