Mikrotik WAP LTE passtrough/bridge mode and lost of the management

RouterOS Wireless Networking

Hi everyone,

im able to do a passtrough via the webfig but i lost all possibility to manage the wap lte so everytime i want to configure something i need to reset it to be able to access it and everytime i need to reconfigure the device.

So first of all i remove ether1 from the default bridge and after i go to LTE settings and put ether1 as the passtrough interface.

On some the devices i get the public ip but on other no. On my computer its always working. When the passtrough is working i cant manage via ethernet or wifi to go to 192.168.88.1.

Someone can help me via the webfig gui ?

Thank you very much!

Hey

What you are experiencing is the consequence of pass-through working: lte modem will pick up packets off eth1 for specific mac address. It has been documented by Mikrotik on wiki.
Solution: create a vlan interface on ether1 and set pass-through to that interface. Ether1 will then become management interface.

Im new to mikrotik and i dont know how to do that in the webfig and the commandline why they dont have documentation with the GUI.

I dont know how to do that with mikrotik.

If you want to use winbox, read about RoMON, this is how im accessing LTE AP in pass-through mode.

RoMon is a neat solution to having access to wap. One drawback of this approach is that the wap itself is cutoff from network connectivity.
