yes that seems correct for the trunking, can you see the load balancing happening on the crs ports in the trunk now ? you want to do it on both sides of the link (like you have).

The master port is fine, it just tells the ports where the grouping is on the asic for switching.

you should be able to simply create the vlan interface on ether1 (that goes to the AP) and then create pppoe client on the vlan interface. Then on ether 2 create the LAN. or you could create a bridge and add ether2 and the wlan1 if you want to provide local wifi also.

Mikrotik dropping connections

Hi All, I have a rb750g and it appears to be dropping tcp connections. It was operating fine up until about a week or so ago (no changes were done). It was running ros 5.8 but i upgraded to 5.11 and the problem still persists. I have: -DSL modem bridged on ether1 -ppp running over that -ether2 lan T...

Routerboard SXT Ethernet port and enclosure

This is a great little unit but i was wondering if anyone finds the proximity from the ethernet port to the latch cover a little frustrating ? Just a bit of design feedback. It's so tight that you cant use any prefabbed cables as they usually have rubber guarding of some sort on the pair so you have...

Re: Pre routing and multi wan and ipsec

Pre routing and multi wan and ipsec

Hi, I'm trying to route a specific subnet out a particular interface, however when i do it routes everything and forgets about the other routes to a subnet via an ip tunnel. Local subnet = 10.4.8.0 Remote subnets = 10.4.0.0/21 WAN = ppp2 I mark the packets with the following add action=mark-routing ...

Re: Erratic latency RB1200 and IPsec multi wan

update:
I upgraded to ros 5.11 and the latency problems aren't apparent anymore.

Now I need to figure out the routing problem, still cant see why it's happening.

Re: Define alternative Winbox port

is there any way to define an alternative port for this yet?

I have a few customers with multiple mikrotiks natt'd behind a single IP across various port ranges, being able to set this in the dude software would make managing them so much easier !

Historical RouterOS

Hey Guys,

Is there a way to obtain previous versions of RouterOS ? This would be quite handy for roll back purposes.

Aggregate PDU for mikrotik

It would be great if there was an option to provide PoE injection to multiple devices from a single power source. If you are powering 5+ devices from a central location having multiple transformers and injectors its begins to get unruly. Rack mount would be a bonus ! I would use a PoE switches howev...

Re: 16/32/48 ports

I will buy a higher density switch definately! A rackmount 24 port switch would be perfect

Re: RB493G features and first impressions

I thought as much, its a bit misleading as it's suggests that's it's the system temperature. I took a heat reading directly from the CPU and i was getting 39 degrees but routerOS was telling me 49 degrees. Granted it is via the base of the heatsink so it wouldn't be 100% on the money, but it wouldn'...
