Hi, I'd like to power off my wifi dongle connecting to Hex Poe USB port during weekend. But seems like RouteOS lacks the capability to power off/on the USB port. What I can find is the USB power reset feature. Not sure what's the max seconds duration of the power reset can be set. If I put a large n...

You can enable logging for the rules that you have created. Then you can see whether rules get hit.
You can also double check Dlink switch configuration. Maybe inter vlan traffic even not passing thru Mikrotik router.

Agree with Jotne, besides the Mikrotik router, is there any other device connects to ISP, like modem or media converter?
Maybe that modem LAN interface does not support 1G.
Or bad cable. Or fault Mikrotik port. Have you tried different Mikrotik port to connect to WAN?

Create VLAN interfaces under ETH2 with the vlan id you want to tag. Eg. from vlan 102 to vlan 106. Create 5 vlan interfaces.
vlan 101 untagged vlan no need to create, just use eth2 should be fine.
