Good morning,

Please I need help on a mikrotik router I just got for my company. I have done all configuration setting and can connect to the internet using ether2 but I need sone guidance;

Ether1 was configured as WAN( for ISP cable)
Ether2 was configured as LAN for direct connection to the wireless access point. However, I noticed that I can connect with this configuration but I have about 5 access points.

Do I need to do the same configuration settings on ether2,ether3,ether4 as I did for ether2 to enable me use them to connect to internet on the other ports?

Also, I noticed that if I plug the working ether2 to a switch and try to connect other access points, its not working.

Please I will appreciate assistance.

Thanks in advance

Hey Guy,
Looks like there is something you haven't fix yet. Have you You have to make ether 2 the master of the other ports(3,4,5,6) so that they will all act as a switch.That will make the APs to be connected.

Kindly confirm and try to do this...meanwhile i am looping my colleagues to help out as well.

Regards

All you need to do is create a bridge .
Step 1 - click on bridge on the menu , add a bridge , assuming bridge 1
Step 2 - on that bridge menu , click on port and add that ether 2 to the bridge 1 interface and save
Step 3 - do step 2 for ether 3, ether 4 and all the interface you to access internet from
Step 4 - click on address on the main menu , am sure you have already add an IP address to ether 2 ,change the interface to bridge 1 ,with this you shd be able to access internet on all port .

I hope this will solve ur issues , if not , kindly send me ur email address , so that I can share my phone number with u . Thanks
