I am running squid 2.6 Stable however the only way I seem to be able to make it work is to set squid with a different gateway other than the MT. We are using a RB600.
We have the WAN and the LAN setup as described here
http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/how-to-setupu-dhcp-client/23848/1
Here is a network layout plan attached.
If I have the gateway of squid as 192.168.0.1 which is the RB600 and enable the firewall NAT rule I get this error:
ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved
While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.google.co.uk
The following error was encountered:
- Unable to forward this request at this time.
This request could not be forwarded to the origin server or to any parent caches. The most likely cause for this error is that:
- The cache administrator does not allow this cache to make direct connections to origin servers, and
- All configured parent caches are currently unreachable.
Your cache administrator is email:info@rednetwifi.com.

However if I configure my browser to use a proxy server and don’t enable the NAT it works perfectly.
Also if I set the gateway of one of the cable modems as 192.168.0.6 and then configure the squid to use that as the gateway it works fine.
What would be the most correct way of connecting squid in to the network…? As the way I had the network configured before was incorrect and now it’s corrected I can’t seem to get squid back working.
Any advice would be appreciated.
