hotspot headache

RouterOS Wireless Networking
1

I want the following setup, but can’t quite get it working:

5 wired pc’s for the internet café - must get addresses from dhcp

3 wired pc’s (pref with static ip’s as they share folders etc, and have 2 IP printers)

Wireless notebooks etc will connect to the AP

The adsl router is connected to the ether1 port on the routerboard – 192.168.0.1

The ether2 port goes to the lan switch to support the wired pc’s – with a dhcp pool of 192.168.10.10 - 30

Wifiport – 192.168.1.1, with a dhcp pool of 192.168.1.10 – 30

Is there a trick to getting the 3 admin pc’s working like on a normal workgroup with static ip’s so they can share files, and still access the internet through the mikrotik device?

thanks

hay....
when you will ask in this forum, i think someone will help you about your problem.... :wink:

right, about how to make 3 PCs will running on hotsspot service without authentication methode, and running as normal workgroup. do and try like this

  1. make other subnet e.g: 1.1.1.1/30 interface=Your_local_interface_name
  2. masquerade it subnet e.g: /ip firewall add chain=srcnat src-address=1.1.1.0/30 action=masquerade
  3. bypassed it subnet from hotspot server by command:
/ip hot ip-bin add address=1.1.1.0/30 type=bypassed

if you are correct entry that code, i think should working fine..
*) change that sample subnet as yourself

don’t even add a hotspot server to the WLAN interface, and you won’t need to bypass it…

Just add an IP to that interface and masquerade it, but be sure to add the ADSL router IP as a gateway in IP/routes
