Hello, I’m trying to configure a new internet link on a mikrotik, but it seems that the v7 completely change how routes work and now I cant add the new link as a secondary internet, the way I used to do is to enable the DHCP server in the interface that the new link is connected to, and set the default route to a distance of 2, so my main link stays as a the default internet and the new link was the secondary, I would then copy the default route created by the new link but change the routing mark to the name of the link, then I could quickly test if everything went alright just by going to tools-> ping and pinging to 8.8.8.8 using the same route mark as the copied route.
Now I have to configure a new link on a V7 router and everything is changed, the route doesn’t even show if it is reachable, I cant ping to the gateway, I don’t know what to do, everything should be fine, when I connect my notebook directly to my modem I can browse normally, when I connect to the routerboard it gets an IP fine with the DHCP client, but can’t ping to the gateway in any way, I need help.
I’m trying to use the link on the ether-8 as a secondary internet, the problem is that with the current configuration I’m unable to ping to its gateway (100.64.0.1).
what I did was:
1- enable DHCP Client on ether-8, set default route as enabled with a distance of 2, the DHCP appears as Bound with ip: 100.114.36.124/10
2- created a new masquerade rule with ether-8 as a out interface.
still I"m unable to ping to 100.64.0.1.

100.114.36.124/10 Is the IP I got from the DHCP client from the ISP Modem, from a notebook connected directly to this modem I can browse and ping to the gateway.
that route is already removed it was just to see if the gateway showed as reachable in the nexthops.
I cannot find any firewall rule preventing the connection.
Let’s see if someone else can spot where the problem may lie.
Only as a side-side note (not connected to the issue) you have in various places references to a *E interface, this means that you deleted an interface before removing all references to it and RoS uses *E as a sort of placehoider, you should remove the lines containing that reference, to have a cleaner configuration.
