When I managed to find a time to reboot the router without interrupting near permanent internet access requirements in the house the problem resolved.

Still looks as though it's come kind of RouterOS bug though.

I did something similar recently. Not too bad (and I was going from 6.x to 7.x at the same time, changing numbers of ports etc.), though there were a few things that needed fixing up. Export compact will avoid a lot of cruft and just give you what you have changed - much easier to review/edit. I had...

I can't see the SYNs and ACKs explicitly but it lo...

Hi, I'm tearing my hair out with a VPN issue. My VPN works with iOS/MacOS devices perfectly - no problems connecting to anything on the internal network. But I can't get it working with a Windows 10 client. Any suggestions gratefully received! The client seems to successfully connect. It can resolve...

Thanks mrz for the fast reply.
