Routing between two mikrotik's

RouterOS Beginner Basics

Hello,

I currently ruling my home network by two RB951G-2HnD devices.

I would like to add a WiFi printer to my network, and would like the printer to be available from the network 192.168.1.X also.

I have added the route : 192.168.88.0/24 gw=192.168.1.100 to my first mikrotik. As a result I’m able to ping devices with address 192.168.88.X from mikrotik’s winbox console, but not from a PC with address 192.168.1.XXX.

How can I make the printer be available from the network 192.168.1.X ?

I think there is something with the firewall on the Wifi router. Can you enter the terminal and write

ip firewall filter print

and write out the output.

I have added the route : 192.168.88.0/24 gw=192.168.1.100 to my first mikrotik. As a result I’m able to ping devices with address 192.168.88.X from mikrotik’s winbox console, but not from a PC with address 192.168.1.XXX.

I would suggest setting a default gateway on a PC in the 192.168.1.0/24 network to 192.168.1.100 and see if you can access 192.168.88.0/24. That will tell you if it’s Router A or Router B at fault [don’t worry, I’ve chosen names for your routers for you, free of charge - A is lowest numbered].

Having said that, if Router B is mostly default then there will be some NAT rules for ether1 that will be confounding your attempts to reach your wireless printer. Furthermore, you will probably find that you can ping 192.168.1.0/24 from the printer just fine!

Hi,

  • I have set the GW on my PC (192.168.1.253) to be (192.168.100.1) and after that I was able to at least ping devices from 192.168.88.0/24 network.
ping 192.168.88.1

I had to rewert this PC setting back to original in order to PC access tje network normally.
Devices from 192.168.88.0/24 are able to access devices from 192.168.1.0/24 normally.
