Hi All,
The ppp client is connected but I can’t browse the internet via the LAN or WLAN, How do I get this to work, even the hotspot tutorial doesn’t help.
If i remove the default configuration after i reset, then the Router in inaccessible.
Any help would be highly appreciated
Thanks in advance

Did you make masquerade on ppp interface?

I’ve tried that, but not sure if i’m doing it right.
Do I go to IP->Firewall->NAT?
Forgive the questions…this is my first RouterBoard

Yes in IP → Firewall → NAT
Masquerade - srcnat - ppp-out1 or what else you have named your ppp interface.
Have you tried to ping an external IP from the router?
Is the ppp connection established?

If I ping a site (using the ip) from the router, i get replies. Even when I set masquerading for the PPP interface. Still nothing via the PC/WLAN
Even if i click manual in Winbox, i get the page cannot be displayed message

If you ping from PC an external IP, not address is it responding?
Set allow-remote-requests: yes in IP → DNS
Try to share your ip->routes.

I got it working!
Turns out that aside from doing what you advised me to do, i had to have “Use Peer DNS” checked in my case, i had it unchecked all the time and it never worked.
Thanks a mil
