Hi every one!
This is my first post.. and if is the rong place forgive me!
I have a problem with winbox. When I try to acces my rb750 wia winbox using mac address i recive an error like this:Could not connect to xx;xx;xx;xx;xx;xx(poer20561)-timed out!.
Can enyone explain me what is the problem?..because if a use ip address instead of mac adress i can access my rb750 whit no problem. I,m using windows 7 ultimate for this…
Check your Windows firewall !! >> Turn it off or make exception
I have done that, windows firewall is off, but still the same problem, I have to wait almost a minute to appear something on my winbox…if I"m lucky. The bottom line is: if I don"t now the ip of the mikrotik i can not acces the device wia winbox.
Right now I switch my laptop with windows 7 with another one with windows xp and whit this i don’t have any problem conecting to mikrotik rb750. Does anybody has the same problem? IS ther a bug with winbox and windows7?
Hello,
are you running virtualbox on windows 7 by chance?
I had that problem as well. Somewhere in the forum, someone suggested disabling the virtualbox interface.
I did that and now I do not have problems.
If you are not running virtualbox, then I am not sure.
