RouterOS Beginner Basics

Hi all!!!

I am having the problem connecting to my Routerboard that is set to work as an AP, from my computer. Let me explain the connection.

My computer is connected on simple home router that is further connected to a main routerbord that is also a server/gateway… everything. the router ip address is 192.168.2.x (ether 1) and i need to connect through ether 3 that has ip 192.168.40.254 (witch i can connect over my desktop) to the separate groove ap/routerbord with ip: 192.168.40.1. where i cannot even ping from my desktop. help!

My computer(192.168.2.x)------> routerboard server(192.168.40.254)-----working

My computer(192.168.2.x)------> routerboard server(192.168.40.254)—>AP Groove(192.168.40.1)----not working

routerboard server(192.168.40.254)—>AP Groove(192.168.40.1)----working (ping, terminal, neighbors)

my computer connected over ether 1 to routerboard server
AP Groove connected over ether 3 to routerboard server

Do you have that 192.168.40.x network routed to the routerboard in the “simple home router”?

I dont think that it is nessesary becouse i can ping from192.168.2.x every other ip rang…(192..168.10.x, 192.168.20.x, 192.168.30.x)… exept 192.168.40.x

OK. Then post “/ip address” and “/ip route” from your routerboard server, whatever device that is. Never heard of that model routerboard.

How does the Groove get its network settings? Is it static or dhcp? Check the gateway setting on the Groove. Insure it is 192.168.40.254.
