Re: DST-NAT over two Gateways

You can definitely use dstnat from two WAN's... you just have to make sure you mange/mark new incoming connections and use a marked routing table that will have a default route to the correct WAN. If you use fasttrack you will want to make sure you don't fasttrack the mangled connections.

Yes, for that switch chip, vlan filtering must be disabled on the bridge and done from the switch menu instead. You will then get HW offloading with vlans.

Re: Cant get vlans to work

You're going to want only the one bridge, don't add a second. The vlan20 interface should use the main bridge.

Then use the switch menu to set up which ports are tagged and untagged and what vlans are allowed.

Re: Bridging one VLAN, routing the rest

Would be much more efficient to learn the switch setup and configure the internal switch with vlan 100 on both ports and let it do the work. With your current bridge setup the cpu is being hit by all the tv traffic.

Have you tried to connect by mac address with WinBox? (The Neighbors tab?) Mac address isn't routed so make sure you're plugged into the LAN bridge.

Other option is if you have a Cisco style RJ45-to-Serial port cable and a serial port you can get to the CLI via serial terminal.

Re: How do I get closer to wire speed with my RB2011?

If you're LAN to LAN on the same subnet and same switch you should be able to get close to wire speed. One of your test PC's may not be able to saturate the link. For routing and NAT, I've been able to ~900mbps with the RB2011 with fast-track and a simple firewall setup. If you have both your fast-t...

Is that just with the online packages upgrade process?

What is the recommended process for offline upgrading without working direct connection to the internet? I would usually drag the upgrade file into winbox, but doesn't that copy to the flash in this case.

Re: v6.33rc release candidate (final testing)

Upgraded to 6.33rc36 on CCR1009.
IPv6 dhcp-client does not initially get bound on reboot. 'Error' shows in Status column, no info in log.

Do a disable and enable on the dhcp-client and it get's bound properly until next reboot.

Wow, that can't be right.
You don't even have enough free space to do an upgrade!

Re: First attempt at making VLANs work in Router OS

You should probably upgrade to 6.32.3.
There was a bug where the switch settings that drop invalid vlans wouldn't be retained after a reboot. That could have caused your leakage, so recheck if those settings are now blank.

Re: How to get 5 VLAN working

First thing I see is the dhcp servers are on the wrong interfaces. Should be with their respective ips on the vlan interfaces.
