RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

Hello, I’m new here, and I’ve recently after working with a colleague who let me play with his Mikrotik gear purchased some secondhand routerboards of my own.

The one I’m currently trying to configure is a RB411.

I’m trying to configure it so that my computer plugged into the eth port can access my wireless router using the wlan card I installed on the RB411.

Here is what I have done:

-Created a bridge (added both eth, and wlan as ports)
-Set wlan to station-psuedobridge
-Set the wireless to connect to my wireless router
-Pull an ip for the bridge from the wireless router dhcp server
-Setup a dhcp relay for the bridge for my pc

Now my problems, that I’ve tried to solve by myself but I feel like I’m just stumbling in the dark. From WinBox I can ping out to the world just fine. I can ping my gateway, dns, PC, everything. However, if I try to ping from my PC I don’t get anything. I have a feeling it has to do with routes, but I’m not sure.

If anyone can assist me, or point me in the right direction it would be appreciated. Thanks, Kalub

Would you be interested in learning how to route that instead of using a bridge?

edit: Otherwise, try pinging the bridge ip from the PC, then the wireless AP ip. At what point does the ping fail?

Here are my settings:

This is what I’m trying to accomplish

I’ve tried multiple attempt to get something work, but I am unable. Could someone assist me setup the RB411. I can configure it so it connects to my wireless AP, but that’s about all I’m 100% sure about. I have erased the configuration and now have a blank configuration.

Bump for updated information

Edit: Somehow I have managed to get it to work. I’m not sure what the difference is between station pseudo-bridge and pseudo-bridge clone is, but by setting it to the latter it now works. Thanks for the assistance.
