Good question, I just tried it, seems to work the same.

Beyond invalid packets through the firewall, in some versions, things like IP>Neighbors including the modems (ppp or lte) and/or IP>Cloud>DDNS being enabled can cause issues with PPP modems IMO.

Don't know how much control you have over your IP space in the "work" 192.168.0.0/24 subnet. One idea is you could "cheat" by having you devices living in smaller block of addresses, say /29 sized block, of the 192.168.0.0/24 network, like 192.168.0.208/29 (192.168.0.209-214) Routing prefers a small...

I ran into the API not having some operation to get the config without using the flash. I didn't even get to this yes/no true/false issue...

@SiB, had a wacky idea here re In EMC you have internal NAT, without DMZ and your Public IP is unless until you migrate to MBIM and ROS7beta8 Was looking to try some of the modems, but the ECM mode (e.g. lte interface on ROS 6.4x) having DMZ/NAT seems annoying (e.g. AT#ICMLANCFG). We have static IPs...

Great info SiB! Was going to try these modules based on the comments here that they work in practice :) But has anyone tried the Rev.2 of the LM940?

You may have some reason for wanting VLANs, but seems like you just need VRRP configured on the LAN side, on both routers. No VLANs wouldn't be need if you just want LAN traffic to "fail over" to the 2nd ISP connection, each router would connect via a LAN interface. Using VRRP would get you physical...

@pcunite, Great article. I've followed this thread for a while...writing down the cleaverness here isn't easy. I'd suggest adding a third option of getting a /29 public IP block (5 IPs) from AT&T to the article. This solution has worked well for me - with the key being to use "Public Subnet Mode" wi...

Does the LTE interface connects/works if you don't modify the TTL in the firewall? I'd make sure the LTE interface is working cool - adjusting the TTL isn't fix connection issues. Assuming it otherwise works and you need to modify the TTL for some reason...I think you want to do this in "postrouting...

Amm0

Not the expert but this should just work. If you use the dude client on Windows (or via wine on Mac/Linux), you can connect to the dude server then scan the subnet that's connected via the tunnel. Unless you specify the subnet to search, I'd imagine it would automatically find anything. Now if the t...

Amm0

Yeah that's possible. If your switch is tagging the traffic correctly, you can add a VLAN interface on the wAP. The VLAN internet would be set to the vlan-id used by the WAN VLAN ID set on the switch and the VLAN interface would listen on ether1. Since it's regular L3 interface on the wAP RouterOS -...

And where did the option System> Ports> Firmware disappear? Will she not be in the future? I had to remove it on the old firmware first, then install only the 7th version. And also back to restore the modem. I think they moved it in v7beta3 and only in CLI: /system/routerboard/modem print That opti...

Amm0

Looks reasonable enough. I'd recommend trying various config pieces out first. Some comments: How you want to "failover" between the SIM cards is the main thing that's a variable in your diagram. There is only one modem - so you'll need a script if you want to change the active SIM card. Searching t...

I want to use the internal speaker of HEX s for The Dude allerts. Is there a way to make that? Yes you can! And good idea.

Amm0

Yes that should work fine, we use the RB953 with two modems all the time. You need to make sure you set "USB type" to "miniPCEe" in /system/routerboard since that's a common mistake - but if you already have a WiFi card, you should be okay.

# oct/08/2019 15:22:38 by RouterOS 6.34.4 You should update that router first. v6.34.4 is very old, and has some vulnerabilities. Once you do that, QuickSet options may change. One of those profiles should have a radio button for "bridge" on top right of QuickSet , that's what you want (the other r...

For new WiFi router, if you reset-configuration with no-defaults=yes, you should be able to just add IP address to it, and configure the WiFi on the 2nd router to match, that get you close to what you want I think...a dumb switch that extends the WiFi too :) Your WiFi clients will select the “best” ...

Could at least use VRRP so if the first router dies, the smaller one takes over (at least for the 8 ports connected there

) with the need DHCP etc. or failover routing - that way it isn't just a dumb switch:

Don't know how much you want to know but this video had a pretty good overview of how to tune the Wi-Fi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JRbAqie1_AM One thing I took awhile from that was to always set the "antenna-gain" to match the device's gain.

Yeah, if you're using 2.4Ghz as a "station", your device can't use it to connect to the Mikrotik. The "station bridge" and "pseudo-bridge" are more useful if you want to put the 2.4Ghz interface into a bridge port on the LAN side, then the "remote" Wi-Fi does all the DHCP – but you have do stuff wit...

I presume you've already tried Winbox4Mac first just in case it's some issue with WebFig? Winbox4Mac download: http://joshaven.com/resources/tools/ if not.

Probably the best advice: Talk with the other administrators and both agree on what version to upgrade your routers... But, if you control the other routers, you can restrict the permissions.

99.999% time you should leave them all selected, and auto-negotiate enabled. It just works.

I too wish this was possible.

the documentation does not mention this anywhere, The LtAP documentation is weak for sure - struggled myself.

Amm0

I take it then that the top modem cannot be referenced via script at all?

Correct. You don't need to set anything – only one SIM to choose from

.

Now, You can reference the lte modem in script, but do stuff like reading the RSSI stuff or issue "AT commands" if needed, or GPS.

Amm0

On the LtAP, the sim slots are tied to specific miniPCIe cards. So SIM 1 can only reference the "top" modem, while SIM 2 and 3 can be switched via CLI/script/winbox for the "bottom" modem. You can not script or otherwise wireup SIM 1 to the bottom modem, nor can the top modem use SIM 2 or 3. Like Gh...

Also, in your configuration you have: /ip dhcp-client # DHCP client can not run on slave interface! add dhcp-options=hostname,clientid disabled=no interface=E1WAN Since your WAN is ether1, you need to have not as a bridge port (and adjust your diagram) or create/use VLAN 99 as an VLAN interface like...

I looked at your configuration, and nothing jumps out as what's wrong with your approach.

I'd select the band to be just "g/n" or just "only-n" and set the width 20Mhz. The first is not likely the issue but not helpful. But the "20/40Mhz" may be the issue, 2.4Ghz is only 20Mhz. Something to try.

Simple answer is three “simple queue”. Set just the target in each for the single IP address (for you), and CIDR subnet for home users/guest in another two queues. Set just the upload/downloads as appropriate. Generally speaking, the less you set in a simple queue, the better.

Mikrotik doesn't have a DSL modem themselves. If your ISP has some integrated modem/router thing, it often hard to just replace.

Instead of a script, you could try to set the "default route distance" in the LTE APN to something higher than 1, say 2, than the DHCP client used by the Wi-Fi interface.
