I have 2 Mikrotiks hAP AC sitting behind my ISP modem.
It goes Modem -> Mikrotik -> Mikrotik
The first mikrotik took on the address of 192.168.88.1 (like it's supposed to) but when I plugged the second Mikrotik in I don't know what it's IP address became. I couldn't connect to it with Winbox even using MAC connection. I eventually solved this by plugging the second mikrotik directly into the modem, getting its address (192.168.0.3) from there, logging in via the web interface and configuring it to be 192.168.88.100. After that I was able to find it when I reconnect it to the first Mikrotik.
My question is two fold.
First why did this happen where I couldn't connect to the second mikrotik?
Second what IP address does a second Mikrotik take when NAT behind a mikrotik?
I eventually want to get some more devices but I'd like a easier set up.
