Routerboard 750GL help

Hello,

I am trying to configure a MikroTik RB750GL. I have signed into the WebFig interface but am unable to find a way to assign a STATIC IP address to the ether1-gateway port. That port is set up for DHCP. I’m new to MikroTik so any help is appreciated.

Thank you,

Rizwan

First go to IP → DHCP Client and remove the ether1 from there.
Then go to IP → Addresses and assign your desired address to ether1 interface.

One question from my side, why do you want to remove the DHCP and assign a static IP.
This setting depends on your ISP.

I am doing STATIC IP because I have a block of 8 IP addresses from my ISP and they do not provide DHCP services on their router.

Thank you for your help!

Where do I add the default gateway? I assume its under IP > Routing but I am not sure. Sorry to be such a noob.

Your thoughts are correct. You should add a rule like
/ip route
add dst-address=0.0.0.0/0 gateway=[desired gateway]
