I purchased one of these in a bundle of hardware, checking the website, I did not see anything about the OS limitations on the hardware info page, I had to open up the manual to see that it only ran on Linux, and not even all flavors, can anyone tell me if it works with Debian Linux, FreeBSD, or ESX...

Hello! I've got a question about the CRS309-1G-8S+IN. I recently picked one of these up and so far I like it a lot.

Hello, I recently bought a CRS309-1G-8S+IN, along with 4, S+RJ10's. however, after looking online to figure out why I couldn't enable jumbo frames, I noticed that the MIkroTik page says "Any MikroTik device with active cooling that has SFP+ ports can now be used..." "S+RJ10 module is ...

PCC has no clue what speeds your line are. all it does is divvy up (randomly) your connections over the different lines, how random it is depends on what classifiers you are doing (source ip/destination ip/source port/destination port) you may want to test to see if your 10mb line to see if you're a...

dboillot

If I may, you will need to use something like PCC, http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:PCC we used this on 4 DLS lines and 2 IPD lines, and it worked great, what it does, is, depending on how you configure it, takes either the packets or the entire connection and routes it randomly over one or the ...

Hello, I've got a question about the DNS settings for RouterOS, let me give a brief example of my network: We have an RB493AH running a hotspot, that goes to an external radius server for user auth.

ok, it was actually even simpler then I thought to get working in a testing environment, set my laptop w/ the public IP, set a route in the closest facing router that pointed the IP to port my laptop was connected though and everything took off.

I'll have to look in to that, any pointers?

Correct me if i'm wrong.. but routing public IPs to private ones is pretty much NAT? Which is what I'm trying to avoid since his hardware vendor says they can't use it.

I struggled with this as well and came up with a very similar solution. I added some mangle rules to bypass the PCC to mark connections/routes for clients that had a static 1:1 NAT.

No, just one external interface and one internal - I just wrote the rule that way.

We're running a small Wireless ISP, we're doing throttling from the radio side, so the 493AH would be doing DHCP for the clients, and it would be doing some sort of load balancing (both-addresses-and-ports, as that seems to be the nearest to how i want it to work) and (right now) 4 PPPoE clients (fo...

Ahh, well im trying to mimic the function of 2 linksys RV082's, but with 4 WAN connections. so when you say hundreds, are we talking about ~150-250 or ~300-400? (i doubt we'll have more clients that will fit in a class C range, just want to make sure we have a good idea when/if we'll start running i...

Hello, quick question about the RB/493AH board. Is there a max number of "clients"? (IE unique IP addresses) Or is it more of a "what your doing with the router determines how many max 'clients' you can have"? Right now we're going to be doing load balancing from 4 DSL lines for ...

Hello, after learning how to get traffic to pass though the router, Im now venturing in to setting up load balancing. right now i have 2 DSL connections w/ PPPoE clients setup on the rb493ah. that seems to be working (i dont know if there is a way to test to see if its actually balancing) but when i...

I did as you suggested, and it does not look like any thing has changed, when i try and ping an exernal IP address, it shows "request timed out" and about after a 1 or 2 min. it changes to "reply from 192.168.135.254(the routerboard) destination host unreachable" One thing i did ...

hello everyone! I have a RB493AH routerboard that i'm having some trouble with. Right now I'm playing around with it, tring to get it to route my internet traffic from ether1 to ether2. For the life of me I can't seem to get this to work, and the wiki pages I have looked at dont seem to explain how ...

Hello, I was told about "the dude" and router OS and I was doing some reading and came across some videos. In one of the videos the guy says something about a router board with DSL modems? Do they have such a device? What i'm looking for is a device with 2 or 4 DSL modems that we can do ba...
