Setup of a router under Mikrotik
Setup of a router under Mikrotik
I'm adjusting my router upgrade and need guidance... The "Antena" MikroTik SXTsq 5 ac (probably Isp AP) was connected via a Poe cable to the router before. It was previously plugged into the modem/router's Ethernet port (some Asus models). Now we have a new unit, but I'm not sure what setting to use—Wireless mode, Access Point, or Media Bridge?
It's been some time since I've used a MikroTik router OS, but unless it's been updated, it can be quite tricky to manage. I'd suggest switching your router to wireless mode and disabling its Wi-Fi radios if you don't need the internet connection. By default, all DHCP settings remain active.
Network configuration should resemble an ISP cable modem or fiber optic unit. Following that, connect an ethernet cable from the primary internet gear to a router. If using Mikrotik for routing, place it as the central device, then link a network switch or opt for a wireless router or access point.
