Hello everyone, I’m a teacher at a public school in Thailand. My administrator has asked me to reconfigure the school network to “work better”. I can do the physical setup and I have a understanding of the system and usermanager I am far out of my depth when it comes to firewall and NAT configuration. I would really appreciate some help checking our current configuration and seeing if it makes sense.
Our setup is the following
ISP modem (200/50 MB) → Mikrotik Router (ccr1016-12g) Ether 1 → LAN (Computer Room) and Wifi Hotspot (Ubiquiti Network)’
The LAN is hardwired to a series of switches and has its own IP range (192.168.99.2-192.168.99.254).
The HOTSPOT is a mix of APs directly wired to the router and a switch which connects to other switches in other building with their own APs. The hotspot uses the internal radius capabilities to serve up a login page and handle the login. (10.5.50.1/23 and 10.5.52.1/23)
The goal is to support ~150 concurrent teacher connections via WIFI and potentially 100 student wired desktops. This seems to be within the capabilities of the router as explained here.http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/is-ccr1016-12g-able-to-handle-this/64144/1 However currently the router begins to choke when there are more than ~40 concurrent users.
Here is a copy of the output from /export compact I’ve removed the userlist.

I can’t seem to get it to export the firewall filter rules so I’ve attached a screenshot.

Thank you.
