I am not an expert in Mikrotik but I think the solution is:

-on the Mikrotik main router ( the gateway to all your Pcs ) enable the proxy server and configure it to work transparently

  • set max cache size to (None) and max ram-cache size to (None)

  • set the parent proxy to the dedicated proxy server you connect to the DSL Line

MT can dial through ppoe, too. So there is no need for other D-Link router. Connect both ISPS to MT and redirect TCP port 80 traffic to proxy as shown in diagram above . That’s it.
