3dfx, OMG! Thank you! Following your instructions and the files you provided, I managed to switch the modem's mode, then install the drivers and after a reboot I managed to flash the firmware. I can now see the IPv4 option, and actually it is the one selected by default. In a few days I will try to ...

3dfx, your reply was like a bright light for me after trying to understand what is going on and talking with the support of Vivacom for almost 40 mins. I have a device with firmware that has the hidden html option, but even when I made it visible, the option was empty - no IPv4 or IPv6 to select. I ...

Additional info: I have the router in this "not booting state" connected to a laptop. I noticed that every 6 minutes the laptops' ethernet LAN adapter becomes active for around 20 seconds and then it goes down again. This is a clear sign that the router is in some loop state and it is not ...

I just opened a ticket to the support as well.

Still when the router is in that "brainwashed" state I cannot generate and/or download any supout file.

After powering down a Chateau 5G router and then powering it up again, the device doesn't boot. This is the 3rd time for the last 4 months. During these 4 months there were other powering down/up cycles and everything was okay. The only solution I've found so far is to put the device in a netinstall...

@optio, thank you for your time and your reply. After your reply I had another question and this is what I've found. Thanks again!

Hello, RouterOS 7.13.3 and 7.13.4 (updated today) always show null-digest as auth. algorithm for connected users no matter the selected auth option(s). I've tested a lot of option combinations, enabled OpenVPN debugging and "verb 4" on the client and I cannot figure out if this is a bug or...

I did not upload, nor modify the default configuration script. Most probably the issue is related to the fact that when I did the Netinstall I uploaded the routeros.npk + the container.npk and the wifiwave2.npk packages. In my desperation today I decided to remove the container and the wifiwave2 pac...

Hi, If a router has been compromised , can Netinstall provide 100% assurance that no traces of the compromise are left behind? If the answer is "Yes", than may be I am having a hardware failure. If the answer is "No", than - is there anything I can do? The facts: A MikroTik Chate...

@oguruma, hello!
Your questions popped up in my Google and forum searches.

Did you manage to find any answer but without using external server?

@Amm0, thank you so much for your time and clear reply. Looking for any 5G antennas in my country made me realize I should go for LTE antenna instead. And wait for the 5G antennas to become more available on the market. Do you have experience with this antenna: https://mikrotik.com/product/mant_lte_...

@mkx, thank you for your clear and simple answer. I've read the forum for the eeeC or eeCe, eCee, Ceee difference.
But if you have time, can you clarify why do you recommend exactly Ceee?

Thank for replying @pe1chl. I did clear the cache on MacOS, Win10 and Linux... rebooting as well. It took me several hours to figure out what is happening.

Please, can you advise if I have discovered a bug and I should report it. I ended up in a situation where the DNS forwarder of hAP ac2 running 6.47.9 will not return an A record for ssl.gstatic.com. As if the router cached something that is not visible and erasable via the DNS cache. All this happen...

It seems that when DoH is enabled all other DNS servers in the settings are not used even if the specified DoH server stops responding. Is my observation correct?

ros44

I may get elegance and clarity... if it works (referring to the issues you had).

Some of the data won't be static, but I don't care if it will be lost between reboots of the router. I will use what you suggest considering the fact that you tested it.

Thank you for your time replying to my question.

These tests are absolutely wonderful. One question: did you have the same RouterOS installed on all 3 devices while testing?

Thank you! This clarifies a lot your previous answer.

I was wondering if anyone else can share their opinion on the topic?

Hello, I can see that both hAP ac³ and hAP ac³ LTE6 kit have exactly the same WiFi capabilities (gain, chains, max data rate, chip) but of course, hAP ac³ has external antennas.

It would help if you tell us your setup goal. I assume you want to have different SSID clients into different VLANs. The easiest way for me is to reset the config of the CAP and select CAP mode.

The lamest way to do it is to use the quick-set menu, select the "Home AP Dual" template, and then in the template: - configure a static LAN IP address of your router, that is free in your network. - and remove the check from the DHCP server option. This way eth1 will still be your WAN int...

I would use the code display option in the forum instead of attaching a file. It seems to be easier for the readers.

First, you may want to change the winbox port to a custom port number. Second, if you update your router to the latest stable version and then reset the configuration and configure it again, you will end up having the default firewall rules configured out of the box. These rules provide sufficient s...

It is not clear if you are using your first router as an access point only or you are using it as a router as well. It makes a difference if you will be using more SSIDs and you want them to be in separate VLANs. Here are a few ideas from me: - at the beginning focus on only one SSID and enable loca...

I read your config two times and I cannot figure out a problem. The only thing for you to correct in your post is that in the beginning, you wrote "eth1 # WLAN" and it should be WAN. It looks like you did an upgrade from a version before 6.41 and the configuration was upgraded from "t...

How come? What MikroTik are you referring to? What is its RouterOS version?

ros44

It seems that the issue is routing-related or source/masquerade-related. Can you post again in a separate code your current /ip firewall nat of the MikroTIk and also the routing tables of both the PfSense and the MikroTik.

ros44

As @sob said you need that rule. Do not disable it. You need to change it.
What you need to do is log in with winbox, go to IP -> Firewall -> NAT, then click on that rule, go to the General tab and in the Out. Interface from the drop down menu select the WAN interface your router is using.

ros44

The first rule in your /ip firewall nat configuration is the following: /ip firewall nat add action=masquerade chain=srcnat It seems to me that it doesn't have any interface specified, meaning that it will source nat everything going out from all interfaces. Can you specify the outgoing interface in...

Enabling port forwarding of port 22 from the Internet to your NAS will, obviously, expose it to the wild. I assume many bots are trying to connect to it using default username/passwords.

Can you ping the modem's IP from the MikroTik's command prompt? If not do you, at least, see a line with the MAC address of the modem in the /ip arp menu?

I assume that in order for you to get an answer you need to clarify what do you mean with
