Disabled some firewall rules and couldn't access the router anymore

Hi,

I disabled some firewall rules and now cannot access the web interface of my router anymore. I am literally blocked out. SSH is not running. So how can I access the web interface or use Winbox to access my router without having to reset it?

Thank you.

Start WinBox, click on Neighbors tab and hopefully you’ll see your router there and will be able to connect to its MAC address.

Router model ?

It is https://mikrotik.com/product/RB2011UiAS-IN

I guess I need to use the serial port. Web interface and winbox obviously do not not work.

WinBox could work if connecting to MAC address, that’s configured separately and not influenced by firewall rules. Also enabled by default, so if you didn’t disable it, it’s still there.

I guess I need to use the serial port

Correct…
Personally, i always have a serial cable with me just in case… :smiley:
