My PC RouterOS version is 3.24. I can’t set IP for hotspot user. If I set a IP for a hotspot user. The RouteOS will halt when the user login. And if I use UserManager to add user for the hotspot. The RouterOS will halt if I set IP or group for the hotspot user. And I found if the IP of the hotspot user is same as the wireless network IP given by dhcp-server. It can work well. But the dhcp-server will not always give the same IP to the user. Please tell me how to set a static IP for the hotspot user.
Static ip should be simple. Insure the ip is not in the range of addresses issued by your dhcp server, but in the range of the interface localnet. I always leave a few addresses not assigned by dhcp for this purpose (like from x.x.x.2 to x.x.x.15).
If you want to make the dhcp server issue the same ip to the client, you can do that with
/ip dhcp-server
print
make-static X
where X is the line number is the dhcp assignment for that client. The dhcp server will then always issue that ip to that mac address. This is NOT a static ip. It is what Mediacom refers to as a “persistent ip”.
Thanks for you reply. The ip is not in the range of addresses issued by dhcp server. But routeros still halt unless I remove the IP of hotspot user. You can my setting in the attachment. And I can’t find make-static in the ip dhcp-server. And I found version 3.13 havn’t such kind of problem. Can I downgrade from 3.24 to 3.13 with 3.24 L5 license?
