Ok I have run that command and got > /export then reconnect to another ether port and finish own setup by adding the last ether port and removing the rest of settings (IP setup, original bridge).Īs there's no such simple default config to choose in quickset, things get complicated out of beginner users' proportions. after all, one could configure the rest of ports (including setting up another bridge) leaving out the last ether port. The above mentioned basic configuration could be a good start even for more complex configurations. and if you're happy with IP subnet, you're already done). bridge with only last ethernet port attached and basic IP setup - IP address and DHCP server running), this would be much easier.Īfter that, this kind of setup (ethernet switch with AP) would be easy to do even using Webfig (just add the rest of ethernet ports to the bridge, add all wlan interfaces to the bridge. If there was a really basic preset configuration (e.g. And then usual (by SOHO standards) configuration method (use web browser) doesn't work, one needs to use Winbox. I guess the big problem with such "simple" tasks is that prior to starting to configure, RB needs to be reset with no configuration. If you can't find a solution using, try to summarize your situation, explain what you are trying to achieve, what worked, what didnt worked and export your config using terminal command If something does not work as expected, most likely there is a mistake in your config. Or you can reset your config and go the easy way with "quickset", in top-left corner of the window select "wisp AP" and select "bridge" mode. ireless_AP (just the first part about wireless and security profile)

#Mikrotik access point manual
(I thought there is some basic manual on wiki but I couldn't find one. Basic knowledge of network is recommended. If your ISP doesn't know about your new local network and hasn't set up proper routes to it, you need to configure SRC-NAT so that your stations have access to the internet via their private IP addresses.It is actually not that hard, as it may look. Make sure that your stations also have IP addresses from the same subnet, or set up a DHCP server in this Router (not covered in this tutorial). Just connecting is probaly not enough, as your AP needs an IP address.
#Mikrotik access point registration
To see if any stations are connected to your AP, go to the Registration Table tab in the Wireless Interface window. You can choose this new security profile back in the Interface configuration. There, make a new profile with the Add button and set desired WPA2 settings. Close the wireless setting window with OK if you are done, and move to the Security Profiles tab of the Wireless interface window. You probably want your AP to be secure, so you need to configure WPA2 security. You can also set other things, like the desired band, frequency, SSID (the AP identifier) and the security profile. To set the device as an AP, choose " ap bridge" mode. To configure an interface, double-click it's name, and the config window will appear. Make sure that the interface is configured and the antennas are connected before you enable an interface. You will see some wireless cards listed here, they might be disabled - to turn them on, click on the blue Enable button.

Start by opening the Wireless Interface window in Winbox. a connection to the router via the Winbox utility.a router running RouterOS loaded with supported miniPCI wireless cards.This article will show a very quick overview for beginners on setting up a Wireless Access Point in RouterOS Winbox graphical configuration tool.
