Why this http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Improved_Load_Balancing_over_Multiple_Gateways
dont work on RB600 running as HotSpot

Client PC-s are on bridge interface with 3 wireless cards and smo more…

I see packets going thrue mangle roul but routing based on routing mark dont work. Trafic allways get trough main default route.

If i setup static route for some destination trough second gateway this work OK.

Thanks.

The Hotspot by default acts as a proxy. As a first step, duplicate the pre routing rules in the output chain.

This solution also works as well for the hotspot. This is a basic setup, you can add more to it for additional services.
