routerOS x86 - 6.32.3 - how to reset totally the config and connect to router by web page ?

RouterOS General
1

Hi,

I run on my PC x86 Osrouter 6.32.3
I made some tries yesterday, after installing it. to make it works (I mean, have access to internet, from my local computer) I needed to set routerOS in bridge mode.

I believe that it is not what I need : I would like to use it as a router =
set dhcp rules, nat rules, set some traffic speed rules for particular ip address on the local network, etc…

today my config is connected like that (I am waiting for a real ADSL model, with bridge mode)

internet - ADSL modem/router - ethernet port of adsl modem router - cable - ethernet car of my PC (ether2) - routerOS - ethernet car of my pc (ether1) - a switch - my pc or mac

after the first run, yesterday, and after several reboot, manually add ip to ether2, etc…
I was able to access to the router OS, using some internal ip like 192.168.1.42
I made some test, and try to define it in bridge. it was working, I had access to internet.

today, I try to set it as a router.
I tried to follow a tuto on internet, without success.
after having lost the web admin page, I decided to reset the config of the routerOS
I used /setup, then r to reset all fconfig.
after the reboot, it was asked if I would like to use, or remove the user config : r (to remove it)

now, I reboot everything : adls modem router, routerOS =
the routerOS is visible by my adsl/router, but have no IP
the routerOS didn’t had the 192.168.88.1, like it should be by default.
Note that the ip range in the actual adsl modem/router is : 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.255.254

so I Cannot use the web admin page to administrate it
I have to admint that it is difficult with the web page :astonished:)
but in console mode, it is a nightmare for me, except for small change (add an ip, etc…)

any tips I could try, to be able to have the router visible on my network, without making several tries which could be not correct ?

thanks
Olivier

Console has hint key : the tab button. Try it to ease your navigation…

Hi,

I made some progress.
I have, now, routerOS defined in router mode.
it has a static ip address, provided by the adsl/router modem.

my adsl modem router cannot be set in bridge mode.
So, I defined a DMZ to routerOS

Now :
internet is connected to ether1
switch to local network is connected to ether2
on routerOS itself, ping to internet works properly.

in the RouterOS menu : QuickSet, RouterOS is in router mode.

in Local network area, IP Address = 0.0.0.0
the red color seem to tell me that it is wrong.
I changed it to 10.10.10.0, as I plan to set my local network with IP on first computer = 10.10.10.2

if this parameter need something else : what should i set here ?

I added in menu : IP/ARP, an ip address to my ether2 card (which is connected to the switch)
10.10.10.1
I tried to create a dhcp server, and I clicked in QuickSet menu the checkbox : DHCP Server.
when I created the dchp server, using ether2, it replaced it with bridge1, and automatically created for me a bridge.
for the dhcp server, I set Relay = 10.10.10.1 (the ip of ether2)

no computer, connected to the switch, are able to get internet, or ip address.
so it does not work :astonished:(

should I delete everything to create my config ? may be I don’t do it in the proper oder ?

thanks for any tips
:astonished:)
