You have full control over what DNS server you hand out. Turn on the DNS server under IP > DNS, then edit the IP > DHCP-Server > Network settings and set the router IP address as the DNS server. Yes, you can enforce usage of that DNS server via a NAT rule. Assuming a WAN interface name of "WAN...
Upgraded from 4.14 to 4.15 on RB450G. Upgrade seemed to have failed, router simply never came back. After 17 minutes I pulled the power and then plugged back in. Router seemed to boot up just fine with new 4.15 version after that.

THANK YOU! The page says to run this i...
Hello! I had wanted to use openDNS as my dns servers, while all of my lan clients use the mikrotik router ip for their requests (caching). Here's the problem: OpenDNS replies no matter what the hostname. For instance, if I try to ping one client machine (behind a masquerade) from another, I get an i...
Sorry for the total newb question... :lol: I have my cable modem running in ether1 and my private network in ether2, in your typical home setup scenario. If I use the above commands, I can make ether2 the "master port" and ports 3, 4 and 5 act as normal switch ports, with all routing going...
