MikroTik Load Balancing with 2 PPPoE and 1 Static WAN using ECMP
ECMP provides almost 100% reliable load balancing and link redundancy solution. ECMP is a per connection load balancing where connection is marked with source and destination IP pair. In my previous article I discussed how to configure DUAL WAN load balancing with failover using ECMP method where WAN connections were static IP Addresses. But some ISP companies use PPPoE service for their client connection. So, some network administrators become confused to configure load balancing with PPPoE WAN connection because PPPoE WAN connection is a little bit complex than static WAN connection. Some of my loyal readers also ask me to make a tutorial on Load Balancing with PPPoE Client. So, in this article I will discuss how to configure Load Balancing with Failover over two PPPoE WAN connections and one static WAN connection in MikroTik Router. Network Diagram We will configure Multi WAN load balancing using ECMP method according to the following network diagram. In this network, MikroTik Router’s ether1 port is connected to ISP1 with PPPoE WAN connection (username: wan1 and Password: wan1) and ether2 port is connected to ISP2 with PPPoE WAN connection (username: wan2 and Password: wan2) and ether3 port is connected ISP3 with IP block 172.25.25.0/30 [...]

How to Separate MikroTik Hotspot and DHCP IP Pool | October 9, 2020
MikroTik default Hotspot Setup comes with a DHCP Server (which uses same IP Pool of Hotspot Server) to provide IP address and other network information to a connected device. Using this automatic IP address connected device can access Hotspot login page. After successfully login, a one to one NAT IP address is also assigned for the device and this process happens internally in Hotspot Server. User device cannot know this one to one NAT IP assigning. However, Hotspot Server actually [...]

MikroTik HotSpot One to One NAT/Universal HotSpot NAT | September 27, 2020
MikroTik Hotspot is an awesome service that can be customized widely. When MikroTik Hotspot is enabled on an interface, it adds dynamic destination NAT rules which will redirect all HTTP and HTTPS requests from unauthorized users to the Hotspot authentication proxy. So, no user can get internet access in Hotspot network without authentication. MikroTik Hotspot also uses one to one NAT providing an IP address from selected IP Pool and this IP address handles user’s data and limitation. Sometimes we [...]

Static Routing Configuration in MikroTik Router | February 11, 2018
Static Routing is an important topic to any network administrator who works with multiple MikroTik RouterOS and wants to establish communication among Router’s local networks. For example, say a network administrator maintains two MikroTik RouterOS connected with any communication medium and each RouterOS has its own networks and network resources such as servers, printers etc. and he wants that each network and network resources will be accessible from other networks. In this case, static routing configuration between two RouterOS will [...]
