Add Hotspot after installation

Hello guys,


I have installed Mikrotik long ago but then i did not need Hotspot so i didn’t install it, now however i need it and i wanna know if there is a way to add it as a feature without messing up my configuration.

If yes i would appreciate your help

You can install the hotspot package without harming your installation. But always create a backup first.

Could you please show me how to do it, if it isnt too much trouble.

Thank you in advance

To create a backup you /system backup save name=Backup or /export file=Backup Then the file will be in your /files. Download them for safe keeping.

Download the correct zip package from http://www.mikrotik.com/download.html then inside the zip package you will see hotspot-version-arch.npk. Upload the hotspot .npk to yor router and then reboot. Also, be sure your router is running the same version of routeros that correlates to to hotspot package you are installing.
