Problem: I have a static route 0.0.0.0/0 with gateway unreachable, but I can ping, traceroute and access the gateway web interface.

Here is a quick summary of my setup...
Two sites, lets call them sites A and B.

---IPs---

SITE A
Eth1: 192.168.1.91/24 - Used by PC hosts and one internet gateway located at IP 192.168.1.1
Wlan1: 192.168.99.91/24 - Used to connect to site B

SITE B
Eth1: 192.168.2.94/24 - Used by PC hosts
Wlan1: 192.168.99.94/24 - Used to connect to site A

---Routes---

SITE A
Static route 192.168.2.0/24 pointing to 192.168.99.94 (Reachable)
Static route 0.0.0.0/24 pointing to 192.168.1.1 (Reachable)

SITE B
Static route 192.168.1.0/24 pointing to 192.168.99.91 (Reachable)
Static route 0.0.0.0/24 pointing to 192.168.1.1 (Unreachable)

---Firewall---

SITE A
SRCNAT 192.168.99.0/24, ACTION = Masquerade

---PING---
I can ping all 192.168.1.0/24 IPs from subnet 192.168.2.0/24
And I can also ping all 192.168.2.0/24 IPs from subnet 192.168.1.0/24

---Problem---
At site B I have an unreachable static route 0.0.0.0/0 pointing to gateway 192.168.1.1 Located at site A.
Yet I can ping and access the gateways web interface.

---Things I have tried---
1) Setting Preferred source - unreachable
2) Changing the gateway ip on the route to that of a PC on site A - unreachable
3) Disabled, Enabled and modified Firewall rules on both sides. - Without Masquerade rule on site A the internet gateway thinks the souce IP is on the internet and sends out the reply package on the WAN interface.

So what am I missing here???
Any advice please...

Hello

You probably made ​​a mistake in copying routes, but instead of 0.0.0.0/24 probably it is 0.0.0.0/0, you can check it.
Second, on router B, except for the dynamic routes, there should be just default route 0.0.0.0/0 pointing to 192.168.99.91 - in this case those routers are aware only on their first "neighbours".
Third, I do not know why you have set on the router A such firewall settings. I do not know whether you have access to the 192.168.1.1 router, if you have - no need to masquerade on router A. There is difference between fully-routed and NAT-ed network.

Thanks for the reply.
The 0.0.0.0/24 was a typo on my post.
It is configured as 0.0.0.0/0 on the router(s).

Problem solved...
I changed the Static route at site B.
Was: "0.0.0.0/0 pointing to 192.168.1.1 (Unreachable)" - This is wrong. Not supposed to point directly to the gateway
Now: "0.0.0.0/0 pointing to 192.168.99.91 (Reachable)" - Router B will Masquerade the packets and send it to gateway 192.168.1.1

And I added a firewall rule at site B.
SRCNAT 192.168.2.0/24, ACTION = Masquerade.

This essentially changed my setup to a NAT-ed network.

The reason why I have the Masquerade firewall rules is because I actually have many other network connections on Routers A and B besides the above mentioned.
These connections require me to have this rule.
I did not mention this because it tends to confuse people when you throw to much info in the equation.

Thanks for the help.

Probelm:

I have a router which is connected with lan to a point-to-point Mikrotik on my roof over my router ether 5 :

ip address of my point-to-point:

1: 192.168.134.19
2: internet routeable ip a.b.c.49 , /28

---------------------------------------------------------------

ip address of my mikrotik router ehter 5:

1. 192.168.134.20
2. internet routeable ip a.b.c.50 /28

my local range on sfp port:
192.168.0.0/24

----------------------------------------------------------------

so on I can ping a.b.c.49 and ip 192.168.134.19 from my router
I wrote a masquerade rule on my firewall for my local lan range .

I've 3 line internet over difference isp.
I use packet mark to use this internet on my lan.

I wrote default route for over ether 5 and show reachable but no internet over ether 5 by ping.
I chenge my route to gateway with a.b.c.49 and was showed unreachable.



really I don't know how to change my route to have access internet over ether 5

I send all photo and configuration ;
