Hello, please excuse me if I have not provided any particular information. I am new to RouterOS and I am experiencng a sharp learning curve. If you believe there is some more information I should provide, please let me know. I would also appreciate if you could let me know how to extract that particular information. Moving ahead, I have Docsis 3.0 Motorola Modem and the ISP has provided me with the configuration given below. When I use these in a TP-Link Load Balancing Router, it works perfectly. But if I follow the steps noted in the guide and plug in these IP number, I cannot get the router to ping any external IP address. I am trying to ping 8.8.8.8 and get timeouts.
I have been provided these IP numbers for our Static IP gateway
Default Gateway: xxx.xxx.xxx.161
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.224
Usable IP Addresses: xxx.xxx.xxx.171
Primary DNS: aaa.aaa.aaa.aaa
Secondary DNS: aaa.aaa.aaa.aaa
I followed the steps from this guide http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Initial_Configuration
I cannot get the router to ping any external ip address.
here is the export script
# jan/02/1970 00:02:37 by RouterOS 6.29.1
# software id = 9QCC-HED8
#
/port
set 0 name=serial0
set 1 name=serial1
/ppp profile
set [ find name=default ] name=default
set [ find name=default-encryption ] name=default-encryption
/ip address
add address=192.168.88.1/24 comment="default configuration" interface=ether2 \
network=192.168.88.0
add address=xxx.xxx.xxx.171/27 interface=ether1 network=xxx.xxx.xxx.160
/ip firewall nat
add action=masquerade chain=srcnat out-interface=ether1
/ip route
add distance=1 gateway=xxx.xxx.xxx.161
/tool romon port
add disabled=no
Please let me know what I am doing wrong? Or how I can fix it?
I also want to add a DHCP server and connect a POE switch to one of the ethernet ports
