Hotspot: How do I allow all traffic through?

RouterOS General
1

It seems that with the Hotspot setup in 2.9, only web traffic is getting passed - SMTP, IRC, etc. all get blocked (connection failed from the client system).

Is this normal? It’s not quite what I was expecting…

Also, it appears the address changing mode has been removed. This will be used for reasonably long-term client authentication, so I was planning to shuffle them over from a “registration IP” to a “actual public IP” that would be routed - this functionality doesn’t seem to exist anymore. I’d like clients to have traffic routed to them with all ports open once they authenticate.

We are getting this also on 2.8.26

Is this a ‘feature’?

Any workarounds?

Same problem here

I added the following to my ip firewall nat rules

chain=hs-auth protocol=tcp dst-port=143 action=accept

chain=hs-auth protocol=tcp dst-port=110 action=accept

I am running the beta

I downgraded to 2.8.26 and was having the same problems, but I discovered that I had a bunch of old hotspot rules in the firewall. After clearing out ALL the hotspot related stuff in the firewall tables, and recreating the rules with the Hotspot setup wizard, things worked properly in enabled-address mode.
