Problem's getting mikrotik to work with dsl

robIce · August 10, 2004, 10:01pm

ok followed the example on the site, and after completing this are the problems

from within the local side of the network you can ping to the outside world and telnet to any address on the internet, dns is working ok as well.

but going to any web site and it just times out.
there is no log of any packets being dropped.

also if you try to telnet or use ssh to connect to mikrotik you get the log on details come up after logging in it just hangs, or sometimes using ssh it will let you in but only if you have just rebooted the router,

I have used this software before on a Friends dsl and had no problems setting it up with no problems, I am begging to think that it maybe a hard where problem, as the PC is just built from junk I had laying about.

the PC is a
p1 with 150mhz and 82mb of ram which is made up from both sims and dims

can you ping an URL - such as

ping http://www.google.com?

If this does not work you might want to look into your DNS settings.

Any chance you have the hotspot turned on on the Mikrotik? If so it sets up rules to pass pings, but not web pages.

robice, try to follow this:

install MT
license it, I won’t go too deep into this

then:

/interface ethernet
print
enable 0
enable 1 {if you have two cards}
set 0 auto-nego=no full-dupl=yes
set 1 auto-nego=no full-dupl=yes
/ip addr
add addr=a.b.c.d/mask interface=ether1 {outside interface, IP assigned by provider to you}
add addr=10.0.0.1/24 interface=ether2 {internal interface, you and your friends on LAN 10.0.0.1 - 10.0.0.254}
/ip dns
add action=masq out-interface=ether1
/ip route
add gateway=f.g.h.i {external gateway to your provider, given to you by provider}
/ping f.g.h.i {you should be able to ping that gateway}
/ping 10.0.0.x {you s
set primary=first.dns.server.address {given by provier}
set secondary=second.dns.server.address {given by provier}
/ip firewall src-nathould be able to ping your internal computers if they don’t have firewall installed}
/ping http://www.google.com {you should be able to ping google}

well, probably you have done this, because as you said, you can telnet to any outside address. But there should be something more that you did, what doesn’t permit you to open web-pages - did you set up some firewall rules? Hotstop ? I mean hotspot… PPTP, PPoE, bridges, anything else?

bye, mp3turbo.
