Ok, I hava CRS on dynamic IP in my house. I have been reading up trying to figure out which is the "best "solution to be able to VPN to home from Windows/OSX/iPhone/Android (Yeah.. we sorta use 'em all, and none of the mobile devices are rooted/jailbroken… )
I have not been able to find a guide for L2TP/IPsec on dynamic endpoint. Other options?
Quite honestly, I found OpenVPN a pain to get it up and running on the router, so I opted for a simpler solution with L2TP which I found trivial to configure.
OpenVPN would be a lot better and I will revisit it some day, but as I rarely need a VPN back to my home, I have not really spent too much time on it.
If you want to run OpenVPN on OSX, Tunnelblick is the way to go imho.
I got caught when I didn’t read one of the first steps "please make sure that your Mikrotik build-in firewall is configured in such way that it can accept packets on the WAN interface. "
So added this firewall rule and then was successfully connecting.
