Hi all. Was looking through my logs and noticed a bunch of failed login attempts from random IPs. Was just wondering if this was normal. If not, what should I do? I’ve disabled the telnet, ftp, and ssh ports in IP > Services already. Anything else I should be aware of?

Your firewall is probably incorrect, usually due to adding a PPPoE interface following incorrect advise on the internet.
Better would be to allow those services and set up firewall to protect the router from WAN port.
Thanks for replies, I’ll look into firewall security ![]()
I only allow ssh access from outside and then have Bruteforce login prevention. http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Bruteforce_login_prevention
