cannot ping out to internet from lan

i cannot ping out to the internet from my pc which is getting a dhcp address from ether2, but i am able to ping out to the internet from ether1 which is the internet port. I know it is a route but not sure what is going on I have a staic IP on the internet. Weird thing is that is when i ping it is doing a dns lookup so it is getting out but just not pinging

Do you have a masquerade rule in /ip firewall nat?

Are you able to ping from wlan1? Do the clients connected to ether2 receive a default route from the dhcp server?

For example:

[admin@rb450] > ip dhcp-server network print
 # ADDRESS            GATEWAY         DNS-SERVER      WINS-SERVER     DOMAIN    
 0 192.168.88.0/24    192.168.88.1   
[admin@rb450] >

ip dhcp-server network print

ADDRESS GATEWAY DNS-SERVER WINS-SERVER DOMAIN

0 192.168.12.0/24 192.168.12.1 192.168.12.1
1 192.168.13.0/24 192.168.13.1 192.168.13.1

Everything looks correct to me. :confused: Do you have any firewall filter rules that could be blocking the outgoing traffic?

see above for the firewall settings just right out of the box

I noticed on ether2 you have arp=proxy-arp. Do you have add-arp=yes on the dhcp server? Try enabling arp temporarily on that interface and see what happens.

it started working all of a sudden i didn’t change anything. So thanks for your help.

I was thinking like you had arp set to reply-only, so add-arp=yes does not need to be set on the dhcp server. Glad it started working… for whatever reason.
