Default Configuration

Thu Mar 30, 2023 11:12 pm

I am trying to change the Mikrotiks default configuration. We have several of them that we deploy, so we are using the same RSC script to prep them and change the Wi-Fi name. My problem is when we use this script for net install it will apply the script just fine, and it looks great, but if we reset it. It just goes back to mikrotiks default and not ours. Is there something I am missing, or am I going about this the wrong way?

You need to use the branding maker, in your mikrotik.com account to adjust the reset script.

I use this approach myself for a long while. Never really need netinstall as a result. Plus, customers can do their own reset without breaking an WAN/wifi/etc configuration.

Docs aren't wrong...but there is a lot of subtle things involved when replacing the default-configuration. I have some notes about the branding/defaults in a couple of thread if you wanted pointers on this approach:
