2.9 beta 19 DNS and speed issues on RB 532

I have about 40 clients off of my MT box. I have a single T1. The layout is this:

internet T1 router – > eTHER1 on MT → Ehter3 on MT → Wireless Radios on Tower

I use PPPoE and Statics. I have a customer that PPPoE’s in local (no wireless) and has NO speed issues, however, on another one, connected to a AP off the Ether3. They PPPoE just fine.

On some sites though, such as MSN and Yahoo, the initial page loads up quickly, when you hit a link that goes to a subdomain or another domain, it goes, waiting for reply. Other sites, such as the army core of engineers, dont come up at all ??

Any suggestions?

sounds like MSS problem.

I have this:

0 chain=prerouting src-address=10.0.1.0/24 protocol=tcp tcp-mss=0-1500
action=passthrough

The 10.0.1.x network is PPPoE network, 10.0.0.x is wireless?

Anything else i need to do?

I’m having the same problems. Except i’m using MT v2.8.27. Here’s my MT setup: http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/basic-router-setup/1989/1

There are some things I found out, regarding this. Yesterday, it opened all the pages - for about an hour, but then it stopped. And if I use a proxy server (one from this page http://www.samair.ru/proxy/ ), all pages load, but slowly.


Here are a couple of those sites, that are causing these problems:
http://www.hotmail.com
http://www.yahoo.com
http://www.najdi.si
… and the list goes on …

Try to add a passthrough mangle rule for TCP with TCP flags set to syn.
Set TCP MSS to 1360.

It didn’t do any good for me. I’ll try to upgrade to 2.9 RC1, if it’ll work.

Maybe you have wrong rule order?

Here’s how i set it up:

ip firewall mangle> print
 0 D in-interface=pppoe-tomi protocol=tcp tcp-options=syn-any
     action=passthrough tcp-mss=1440

 1   in-interface=pppoe-tomi protocol=tcp tcp-options=syn-any
     action=passthrough tcp-mss=1360

And it still doesn’t work.
