Hello, guys. I am brazillian newbie on MikroTik and I have bought a crs125-24g-1s-2hnd-in routerboard for home use network. My newtork is established in this way:
MikroTik >
ether-1-gateway: ADSL Modem (Downstream Line Rate: 5661 / Upstream Line Rate 575)
ether2-master-local: another LAN, with 2 outdoor stations and 1 router in bridge;
As far I know, everithing is in bridge mode. The internet is okay and working in both networks. The only device that has DHCP server on is the MicroTik. The problem is: although I can see everything and everyone that are connected on MicroTik (ip > dhcp server > leases), until now, I am not able to do a bandwidth control.
crs125-24g-1s-2hnd-in allows to insert a rate limit on “ip > dhcp server > leases” if we make ip static. Even that had no effect.
It’s important to say even that I’ve aready followed some steps on the youtbube and MicroTik manual on the internet (http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:TOC). There is a queue example that takes into consideration a connection with the same speed of mine and even though i’ve done pass-by-pass, the procedure wasn’t sucessful.
The queue is created, but nothing happens. If I do a download/upload, I can use all the connection. I’ve tried too some rules with packets and connections marked, without any result.
Does anyone can tell me what is wrong?
By default all CRS interfaces are switched, this allows you to use wire speed switching, also this means that packets will not bet sent to CPU, and your RouterOS configurations will not apply to switched ports.
To use all RouterOS features on CRS you have to send packets to CPU, or tu use regular routing.

Although I have understood that the traffic must be sent to the CPU or in router mode, I couldn’t imagine how to do that on the WebFig v6.32.2. As I said, I have some network knowledges, but I am a newbie on MikroTik. Does anyone could at least tell me in broad terms how to do that. I’m sure I will understand the process and will set out all the configurations until I have success. I just need a push. Thank you.
You have to remove “master port” from interfaces which should not be switched.
p.s. Winbox is much better than WebFig.
My friends, first of all I would like to thanks everyone that is trying to help patienly. Second, I’ve noticed that the ether2-master-local port, where the whole newtork is connected (routers, outdoor stations and switches), is configured with the “master port > none”. Although I’ve set in this way, I cannot configure bandwidth control. Was that kind of modification there I was supposed to do?
If possible, I would like more specific orientations or a link that could help me to solve this problem.
