galaxynet: That is what I thought at first. Just wanted to make sure that was what you were doing. Better to ask than guess... Thanks again! EDIT: I just read that real close. the "core" to which you refer is the x86 box connected to the internet? Three generations here, right? That would...

Mactrekr

good to know, I'll definately keep you posted, but it sounds like you're far ahead of me.

Mactrekr

Well- if you have it working with Version 3, please tell!

Thanks

Nope, sorry, only v2.9. I may install 3.0 just to try it out on my next install.

Nevermind, got it working thanks!

mrz,

I can't seem to get your script working at all, I've very carefully entered it, and verified it in winbox. I can still ssh into the box even after as many as 12 failed attempts. Any insight would be appreciated.

Ok, I'm not sure I understand about converting from bridge to routed. The only "bridge" I've got in the whole system is the bridge between the main ethernet interface and the wifi interface on the RB133's. The x86 (Grandma) and the 532A (mom) don't have any bridges on them at all. The RB53...

Mactrekr

Ok, been using Wireless Orbit for a year now, and it rocks. I've got many MT RB133's with Ubiquity WiFi cards attached as hotspots and all are working flawlessly. If anyone needs advice on Wireless Orbit, and MT combos, let me know.

Ok, well, now I think I've got what ya'll are saying, but I may have a new issue. I tried to ping daughter from mom and got no reply, wonder why I can't ping the 192.168.40.x addressed RB133's from the 10.10.10.x addressed RB532A? I'm going to assume this is the reason I can't access the RB133's.. A...

Ok, Tim, one question, why do we set the dst-nat on Grandma to Mom's primary IP address if we're only going to change it later on to Mom's 2nd IP? Or are we supposed to have 2 seperat dst-nat rules on Grandma? Hi Mactrekr, I think you may be missing a step. I use relational names for my boxes, like ...

Mactrekr

Ok, Question, why use /32 subnet? I'm not arguing, I just would like to know so that it makes more sense in my head. Connection Tracking is enabled in both Grandma and Mom, (Using SurferTim's family tree) Default gateway on RB532 (Mom) is 10.10.10.1 (I have Grandma set up to hand out 10.10.10.x addr...

Ok, here's what I've got. Using (Simulated addresses here) The x86 machine is on a public ip block 73.194.59.1 but I've also assigned it 73.194.59.5 532a board is 10.10.10.159 but I'v also assigned it 10.10.10.5 rb133 is 192.168.40.189 I have a nat that will allow any traffic attempting to hit 73.19...

Mactrekr

Ok, first, the DHCP issue isn't a problem. Static or Dhcp I can't access the 133's. The problem I'm dealing with is to do this, it basically becomes a "tripple" nat situation. First, I've got to nat the Main X86 Mikrotik to the 532A board, and then from there on to whichever 133 board I wa...

Mactrekr

A more advanced solution to this is to use a product by a company called netburner. We have successfully set up a remotely operated dual camera pan tilt system with this. We are able to control all functions of both RS232 cameras and RS232 pan/tilt head from anywhere in the world. It would be really...

Hi Ya'll I've got a rather complex system, but I've got a simple question. We have a primary MikroTik X86 system that handles our T1 connection. We use that to route traffic to both our subscribing customers and a RB532A that handles our hotspot traffic. The PC, has a public IP on one nic and hands ...

Mactrekr

is this a routed or bridged network , yu wont be able to see the 133s on a routed network unless they have public ips or you have a route to them and you have a spot to access them on that route, plus your going thru the canopy i have heard ther is some issues aka a lil extra config to be done to b...

Mactrekr

Ok then you need to add routes , either src-nat dst-nat for the network or use masqarading , look up hot-spot masqarading and it will show you how to do it, and yes you cant nat without either src-nat dst-nat or masq enabled , imo masq is way easier Nate, Could you explain how I could accomplish th...

Mactrekr

Hey Ya'll, Ok, kinda complicated, but here goes... Here's the basic layout of our system. An osx86 Mikrotik that acts as our T1 interface. (Has a Sangoma CSU/DSU T1 Card in it) attached to that is a RB532a, which acts as our Radius controller. Attached to that is our Canopy AP which Broadcasts to Ca...

MRZ,

Thanks for the reply. I actually figured that out and it works great. Similar to MultiLink on a cisco.

Is it possible to have 2 interfaces configured to use one DHCP pool? I can get one or the other going, but cannot get both working.

Mac

Mactrekr

Mactrekr - I have never used the Canopy system so you'll have to forgive my ignorance there but typically you would just tell your main router (your home site MT in this case) to route the public ip address/subnet mask to the canopy AP. The canopy AP will have to have a static route put in it to te...

Hi Ya'll. I'm having a hell of a time trying to get a downstream MT to take a public IP address from our main MT Router. Our system is as follows: 2 T1 lines (internet) bonded by a cisco 2130 router using Multilink to bond the serial interfaces. Out of the cisco using an X-Over cable to our MT PC Et...

Csickles,

You are a gentleman and a scholar. You are now my very best friend. If you were a good looking woman, I'd send you flowers. It worked and I'm happy.

Thanks

Would Eoip tunneling work in this situation?

ANYONE?

Mac

Mactrekr

Well DHCP relay doesn't seem to work.
Any other ideas?

So far, I've got 2 hotspots up and running with wireless orbit and after the first day or two, they've been trouble free. Authentication speed is very quick and my customers are happy.

Hey Ya'll, I'm not super Network Savvy, but........ I have a problem that I think I "theoretically" know the solution to. I've got an RB133c, I have a RB532A assigning DHCP to it, basically acting as a gateway. My RB133c has a Ubiquiti XR-2 wifi card on it. The two MT's are connected via M...

Mactrekr

Ok, I just now got my MT HotSpot working with Wirelessorbit it is really cool. Still a little rough, but they are adding features with every revision, the best part is that it doesn't require you have another computer set up. I tried antamedia (CRAP), and PatronSoft's firstspot (also crap) both were...

I am attempting to Double Nat. I have a main MT and a RouterBoard at a remote location (connected via Motorola Canopy). Right now, I'm having trouble getting a Nat rule to pass a public IP address to and from the Private IP of the Routerboard. Problem is, it ain't working and I don't know why. Anyon...

Normis, I would really like to see more T1/E1 synchronous interface PCI/PCIx cards supported. In particular the new line of Sangoma cards, A10x series. Most of the T1 Synch cards currently supported are out of production. I've spoken to Sangoma and they are willing to work with MT to get these cards...

jhydzik, I currently have 3 MT's running with various T1/E1 pci synchronous cards working. I've got one on a Cyclades PC300 (No longer made and very hard to find) The other 2 I've got running older Sangoma 1 and 2 port 51xx series cards. (also no longer made and in short supply). I'm trying to resea...

Mactrekr

Okay, I was looking for an alternative to the Sangoma and Cyclades and noticed that Mikrotik makes a small reference to a UK company called Farsite. I went on their website and found this. http://www.farsite.co.uk/tcp_ip_ppp_x.21_v.35_pci_cards/farsync_e1_t1_pci_wan_card_linux_windows.shtml Can anyo...

I'm having the same problem, I can detect the canopy subscriber modules, but dude won't show dependancies. I can monitor status of each SM tho.

Anyone else figure this one out?

Hi Ya'll, we're an ISP and we provide our customers with our own email dns addresses. We block port 25 for obvious reasons, but my problem is that a customer cannot use any other DNS email because of the port 25 blocking. I've tried making an accept rule in ip-firewall-filter rules that allows port ...

Mactrekr

You can also force a given MAC address to use a specific IP address via a static DHCP lease to help keep track of who is who, and then as mentioned only allow those IP addresses through the firewall. This won't protect you from a non-customer spoofing someone else's MAC but it sounds like that's no...

Mactrekr

WildBill, I meant no disrespect, I just didn't really understand your solution. I was under the impression that "Hotspot" had to do with wireless. Sorry. Valens, I'll be trying what you explained this week. That's exactly what I was looking for. See, we provide 1 ip address for each custom...

Mactrekr

That did it, my problem was the subnet. Once I got that figured out it worked and discovered EVERYTHING. The DUDE rocks.
Mac

Mactrekr

Really, What I'm looking for is a simple way to block connections or drop connections that don't come from preauthorized MAC addresses. I'm not using hotspot at all. This doesn't have anything to do with wireless. I just want to be able to accept and/or deny connection based upon a client MAC addres...

Disable "Default Authenticate" on wireless cards where you need it. It's on tab Wireless. After that only users in Wireless - Registration table can connect. Ok, I'll look into that, but let me give a little more detail about our system. We're using the MT to act as a T1 Gateway and using...

Mactrekr

Ok, well, my bad, the sangoma card is working perfectly! Here's the story, I kept telling my boss that the damn MT router was properly configured and should work. I told him repeatedly that I suspected the T1 line was mis-wired. He repeatedly told me he KNEW that the T1 was proper because when we pu...

Hi Yall, Got 3 MT Private hotspots running and am having a heck of a time keeping up with the connections. Is there a simple way to block unapproved MAC addresses into the system? As it sits now, a couple of my customers have figured out that once I queue them back, all they have to do is change rou...

Mactrekr

Well, I've given up on this damn Sangoma card and will NEVER use them again. I've got a PC300 cyclades card on it's way down to me on loan from a buddie and am buying a cisco router 2700? What a pain. The sangoma has no LED's and RouterOS doesn't provide you with any status indication. Bad combo. Mac

Mactrekr

what exactly does a smartjack card do then? cause i remember specifically them installing it, i thought it was just something so that they could test the line more easily, does it actually condition the line too? Just finished talking to a techie guy about that, as I understand it, True T-1 runs on...

Mactrekr

ah, i do know for sure that i am on a smartjack. Thanks Variable, Anyone else out there using this Sangoma POS? S5417 card? If so, I'm using this on a straight through 2 pair "dumb" jack. (Dumb jack) is basically just twisted pair terminated to a jack and then ethernet cable into my Sango...

Mactrekr

Variable, can you tell me a little about your T1? I'm not running a smart jack. Just 2 pair terminated at an RJ-48 jack. My S5147 2port card is on a smart jack. Unfortunately I can't seem to find any system status indicators in Mikrotik OS to tell me what the status of my sync is.
Mac

5148, took a LONG time for me to figure out that you cant do it via telnet, ssh OR winbox and you have to be physically typing it in at the computer. maybe try this? I've configured it using the mikrotik box locally, not winbox, not telnet. Found that one out the hardway as well. Unfortunately the ...

Mactrekr

i luckily got a sangoma card, tech said same thing, they wanted to work with mikrotik on newer cards, but nothing came of it. the card i do have works awesomely! I really really hope they update the t1 stuff, cause thats one of the most useful parts of RouterOS imo. Variable, which card are you ref...

Mactrekr

Ok, I'm now on my second Sangoma S5148 t1 single port card. Qwest (our T1 provider) says they can't see it, and I can't ping out from it. I have successfully used the Sangoma S5147 dual port on an identical system and have had no problems with it. Qwest says it's like the card isn't there, but I've ...

Mactrekr

Matt, I've looked EVERYWHERE, and come up short, great card, they pop up on ebay every now and then. However, by contacting sangoma directly, I found they still have a small qty of they're S5418/5417 cards. I'd suggest steering clear of the single port as it's a PAIN IN THE ARSE, but the dual port I...

MIKROTIK!!!!!????? Could you shed some light. I just got off the phone with a Sangoma lead tech, and he said they offered to work with you to get their A10x series cards compatible. Come on, Cyclades pc300 is no longer in production, and none are available, Sangoma S5417/8 cards are no longer in pro...

Mactrekr

I'm currently using a Sangoma 5417 in one of our installs without any negatives. Our speed tests are fully 1.5mb (T1 speed) and it's been, in my opinion, more stable than our cyclades card.

Hi ya'll, just found the dude and have some questions. First off, how do I get it to discover my entire network? I'm running a MT routeros 2.9.x and am using canopy access point and subscriber modules, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to get the "discover" to map more than one...
