I have a MikroTik CRS312-4C+8XG and I am trying to configure it as a router to connect to my ISP's router. The ISP's router is a Virgin Media Hub 4 which has been placed into modem mode. With the config shown below there are a few things that work and things that do not work...
1. The modem and router communicate okay as I can see that the DHCP client gets an ip, gateway, dhcp server and dns server.
2. From a Mikrotik terminal I can ping 8.8.8.8 and a fqdn.
3. From a PC on the LAN side I can ping the public assigned ip address on ether1 (WAN) and all other devices connected in the LAN.
4. From a PC on the LAN side I cannot ping anything on the internet, e.g. 8.8.8.8, including the WAN gateway ip address.
5. The DHCP server on the LAN side only gives its clients an ip address but does not give it the gateway ip. I assume that this should be 192.168.0.1
6. If I set a PC's ip address manually to, say, 192.168.0.8, gateway to 192.168.0.1 and dns to 8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4 I still cannot ping anything on the internet.
I see two issues here:
There is no route between LAN and WAN.
DHCP server on LAN side is not giving its clients the gateway ip address.
I have tried to enable/disable ip-forward, turning off all the firewall rules and disabling the LAN DHCP server but still no luck.
Any help here would be very much appreciated.
