I was experimenting with using an RB1000 as a dude agent and when I thought I wouldn’t want to use it I unchecked Remote Server in the settings to disable it. Oops. This was before I knew how to uninstall a package which I should have done. So now I’m trying to get it going again and cannot. I’ve uninstalled the package using /system package uninstall dude and it goes away upon next reboot. I’ve also reset-configuration and then reinstalled dude but still cannot get into dude remotely. I’m assuming thats because there is a settings file somewhere that is getting loaded and not turning the server back on. How can fix this? This is non-deployed router so a factory reset is an option I just don’t know how to do it.
Thanks
Nuke it from orbit: Netinstall the router and select only the packages you want.
I have full access to the router via winbox. There is no way to do this there? I have never used netinstall. Upon reading it it doesn’t look to bad. Can I set the boot device for the rb1000 from winbox or do I need to to go out and find a serial cable?
Not sure about from Winbox via the GUI, but you can from the CLI (click the New Terminal button):
[admin@Mikrotik] /system routerboard settings> set boot-device=
ethernet flash-boot flash-boot-once-then-nand nand-if-fail-then-ethernet nand-only try-ethernet-once-then-nand
[admin@Mikrotik] /system routerboard settings> set boot-device=
Ok I found that in the wiki. Thank you.
