I have 1 client radio on an office building with multiple customers.
I have the radio plugged into a hub then from the hub it goes to each customers router and the routers are using PPPoe to auth.
This was working fine when I had only 1 customer using pppoe and 1 using hotspot to login, I added a 3rd customer and they will use pppoe. But now the ones using pppoe keep lossing there connection. 1 may work for a few hours and the other for a few minutes and they keep reconnecting.
yeah, what kind of bridging is involved with the station/client?
see, if it does any kind of mac address masquerading/nat then it wont work. period. this is the client and protocol limitation, not routeros limitation.
you would need to use layer 2 bridging which in routeros context often means wds.
Did you catch the place in the PPP profile labled “Only One” also? I’m not sure what that’s doing, but it might also limit you to one pppoe session per mac address. We run with one session limit turned on and your description matches what we see pretty closely.
Max Segment Size. A normal Ethernet Frame is 1500 bytes, but with the PPPoE header added, you have to change that to 1492. That option quietly turns on a mangling rule to modify TCP headers to adjust the MSS on connections as they are created.
For customers who use plates wireless as customer of a server mikrotik in pppoe. which the best configuration for MTU and MRU, and also which is the best configuration of TCP MSS? I have many you doubt on this. If they will be able to help, I am thankful me.
It is the CB3’s fault that it doesnt work with more than one person. You need to perform true l2 bridging to permit more people. CB3 doesnt know how to handle that second session of PPPoE traffic coming from the NAS. Who should it forward it to? Remember the CB3 does “mac nat” (translates outgoing packets over the radio to the radio mac address).
