Winbox connection refused!

Hi, i get today error winbox connection refused. Yesterday everything was working today not anymore. I can get into mikrotik over telnet but not with winbox.

What should i do?

Thx

Since you are able to login by telnet, your username and password must be correct,
How are you trying to login with winbox is it by IP address or MAC

By IP

Have you tried clicking in the … box between “connect to” field and “connect” in winbox this will give mac address and login

While I’ve never had Winbox stop working like that with a router, I have had it do it for the HTTP and SSH from certain IP addresses for no apparent reason. Try connected to it from a different IP address. If that works then SSH into it if you can and disable the Winbox service and re-enable it.

Hi, i tried from different address and still nothing. If im opening winbox that button then it doesn’t give me any IP or Mac, but i can get in over http, over telnet ← thats weard :smiley:


10 minutes later i fixed that now. like 2 post up there is disable and enable winbox service. I did that and everything is OK again. Thx for everybody :slight_smile:
