Loading Driver for Realtek Ethernet Card

RouterOS General
1

Please I need help on how to load the driver for my Realtek Card since the system did not install it.

Hey, I am new to Mikrotik and I will appreciate any assistance

If it is PCI RTL8139 it should be loaded automaticaly. Try your card in some Win/Lin computer and see if it is working at all…

I have another Card I have tested that is working. I have inserted into the system and boot but it did not dictate it. Do I need to reload routerOS again or how?

Standard RealTek cards (8139) are detected automatically without further driver loading or something like that.
If your card is not detected, there are several possibilities:

  • It’s another RealTek chipset not supported (check the online docs on supported NICs).
  • It’s defect (you only tested ANOTHER card, right?).
  • There’ a IRQ conflict or something like that that keeps the card from operating correctly.

I have installed the new Ethernet Card.

I longed in and did this command:
/interface pr

I got one or etherface ether1

Do I need to add the other interface or is it supposed to be there since the card is installed?

I cant go ahead until I have two cards installed right?

Well, the main usage of Router is to do whatever U want with your packets which go from 1st network card to the 2nd network card. So it is logical what U have two network cards. But those cards can also be wireless, adsl, isdn,… but it has to be two of them…

Hey thanks for the help

I have got another card that is working. Now I have already configured my AP and Two other Clients packages that are connected to it.

Now I want to use the PC routerOS to do Bandwidth amangement/limiter on all my clients.

Is it possible for me to do this.

If possible please give a guide on how. My main interest is to able to control what my clients gets at all time so that they dont excced their limits.

I also want to use it for a proxy server. Do I need a seperate system for this?

Yes, that’s possible using RouterOS queues. Please read up in the quite extensive manual and then post back with specific questions. There are some examples in the manual, too.

Can be done on the MikroTik as well (see docs, again). For this usage you should definitely have a “real” harddisk in the system (no flash disk). Also take care of the system requirements stated in the docs (e.g. relation hdd space and necessary RAM)!

Hi all,

I have gone through the Bandwith control documents.

Now I have this command /ip firewall src-nat add out-interface=ether1 action=masquerade

Will this obstruct the bandwidth configurations?

What I want is to realy be able to limite my clients to certain bandwdith which will be different from the other client. That is each client have a bandwidth according to his request. Say one gets 64/128, 32/32, 32/64, 64/64 etc.

Is this possible?

The simple queue will from my understanding limited all my clients to a certain bandwidth, and thats not what I want.

can anybody help

make a simple queue for every client
eg
192.168.0.1/32 with 32/32
192.168.0.2/32 with 64/64
etc
