I broke my network and can't access Webfig. Please help

Sat Oct 06, 2018 1:20 pm

Hi all,

I was adding some new Unifi AP to the home network today but I disabled DHCP Server like a complete idiot and now I can't access Webfig at all and none of my AP work at all.

I tried to set up the Mikrotik router board and restore a config backup but I can't get into webfig now, when I go to 192.168.88.1 I just get the message "It Works!" and nothing else. I'm on a Mac so I can't use WinBox. I've tried everything I can think of and reset the router board 3 times and still have no success.

I'm using a MikroTik 750 Router Board and connected wirelessly to the ISP router as my AP network doesn't have internet now.

Any suggestions would be so appreciated!

Try mac address connection. Otherwise reset to defaults and log in normally.

Use winbox!

You can make Winbox work on a Mac by using some variant of Wine.

It might be that there's some device in your network which assumes IP address 192.168.88.1 when it can't obtain address via DHCP. So if you are unable to use winbox with MAC connection, you may try to connect your laptop wired directly to a LAN port of RB750 while the rest of LAN is disconnected from RB. You'll have to set static address on your laptop (make sure it like 192.168.88.x where x is not 1!).

Do not use WebFig ... use Winbox instead. It's proper tool.
