Greetings, i’m new to the Mikrotik routers, i have a router with 107.1, that router gives DHCP to a series of routers doing the hospot function, in the past days i could enter to those routers, but on these days i cannot access anymore
Can someone help me with that problem? I can give some screenshots about what is happening.
Thank you
Example:
R1: 107.1 >> DHCP >> R2: 107.27
But i cannot access to that router (R2) nowadays, but a week before i could.
Is this “107.1” a fragment of an IP address? If you feel the need to sanitize IPs, it’s better to use one of the IANA reserved TEST-NET IP ranges such as 192.0.2.0/24. Otherwise, it’s confusing; without the other two octets, it looks like a browser version number. In particular for this forum, there is no RouterOS version 107.27, so we don’t know what you’re talking about.
Yes, post pictures.
Yes, post configurations.
Help us help you.
My guess? Your DHCP server decided to give that other router another IP. If you need this not to change, you should be using static leases. If you are doing that, then I would guess the MAC has changed, in which case I’ll guess that you’ve left the auto-mac setting enabled, and the box has chosen one of its other MACs for some reason.
As tangent said, you gave us almost nothing to go on. Tell us what is connected to what - or better yet, a network drawing. And export your configuration. To export and paste your configuration (and I’m assuming you are using WebFig or Winbox), open a terminal window, and type (without the quotes) “/export hide-sensitive file=any-filename-you-wish”. Then open the files section and right click on the filename you created and select download in order to download the file to your computer. It will be a text file with whatever name you saved to with an extension of .rsc. Suggest you then open the .rsc file in your favorite text editor and redact any sensitive information. Then in your message here, click the code display icon in the toolbar above the text entry (the code display icon is the 7th one from the left and looks like a square with a blob in the middle). Then paste the text from the file in between the two code words in brackets.
I’m assuming that you are using private IP class C (192.168.X.X), so, 107.1 and 107.27 would be: 192.168.107.1 and 192.168.107.27 using /24 netmask (255.255.255.0)
If i’m right my question is where is your end device (PC, MAC, smartphone, etc.)?
If I understood, R1 gives an IP address to R2 by DHCP and “107.27” it’s an example. You are connected to R1 and you need access to R2?
According with compannions, a diagram and post configs can help to solve your problem.
