Hello.
On my new RB2011 I setup the WiFi out of the ready configuration.
I added it to the Bridge.
The result it:
Some devices is connecting to it, and having internet, the rest is connecting, but not having internet.
I am not sure where I am doing it wrong.
If You need some sort of scripts or screenshots which would help solving this issue - please tell me ( I am fairy new ).
Thank You in advance guys !
There’s nothing visibly wrong with your configuration, there are just slightly unusual things.
Does the issue affect only clients connected to the additional SSID (i.e. to the virtual interface UnrealVLAN) or also clients connected to the master interface?
Not much is changed actually excep the names of the Wifi and VLAN and the failed address try
the rest is intact.
( just didnt wanna show some names which is a bit.. awfully looking )
An answer “yes” to “A or B, if B, why?” is hard to understand . The thing is that the first byte of a MAC address must normally not be odd (as an opposite of even, not as a synonym of strange) because that’s a multicast address indicator. So I suppose you had to set a MAC address of your previous equipment to get your public IP from your ISP, but the MAC address is a normal one, with the LSB of the first byte equal to 0.
OK, so what do the devices that report no internet have in common? If you don’t specify a DNS server on the /ip dhcp-server network row, Mikrotik tells its DHCP clients to use the DNS servers it uses itself, and yours gets the server addresses via DHCP from the ISP. So you may try to add dns-server=192.168.0.1 to that row and let the client devices re-request their IP configuration, but it’s kind of cargo cult advice - I’ve got no real arguments why this should have an impact, it’s just that many devices detect internet availability by sending DNS requests. And my speculation is that if they get (a) public IP of the DNS server(s), they may behave different in some regard.
<3 Gonna try this!
Yet, I just notice something which I havent noticed before. Some of the devices, even those connected trough cables is not getting the router as a gateway..
None other, they just getting IP from the router, but somewhat the gateway ( and probably the dns ) is missing. If I put their gateways manually it works.
That screenshot clearly states that DHCP server’s address is 192.168.0.2, whereas the Mikrotik has 192.168.0.1. So look what has 192.168.0.2 in your network.
I feel as dumb as rock opposing You.
You are correct.
One mikrotik which I am using to empower the cameras in a Switch configuration ( the 0.2 IP ) had a leftovers from it’s previous life as a DHCP server..
Cant thank you enough !
