MikroTik PCC Load Balancing over Unequal Dual WAN Links
Hi, you are here means you are finding a Load Balancing and Link Redundancy solution with Unequal WAN links in your MikroTik Router. If so, it is your right place. In my previous article I discussed how to configure a Dual WAN Load Balancing and Link Redundancy network using PCC method but it was assumed that both WAN links have equal bandwidth. But in real situation, you may have unequal WAN links such as ISP1 may have 10MB bandwidth and ISP2 may have 20MB bandwidth. In this case, PCC Load Balancing and Link Redundancy configuration will be a little bit different. So, in this article I will show how to configure Load Balancing and Link Redundancy network using PCC method which will have unequal Dual WAN connections. Core Devices and IP Information To configure a load balancing with failover network, I am using MikroTik RouterOS v6.38.1 that has two ISP connections and a LAN network. IP information that I am using for this network configuration are given below. ISP1 IP 192.168.30.2/30 and Gateway IP 192.168.30.1 ISP2 IP 192.168.60.2/30 and Gateway IP 192.168.60.1 LAN network: 10.10.70.0/24 and LAN Gateway IP 10.10.70.1/24 DNS IP: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 This IP information is just [...]

MikroTik Load Balancing with 2 PPPoE and 1 Static WAN using ECMP | September 24, 2019
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 [...]

How to Block VPN Access with MikroTik Router | May 14, 2019
Sometimes system administrators create firewall rule to block unwanted websites. But VPN apps break these firewall rules and allow access to unwanted websites. For example, if Facebook is blocked with MikroTik Firewall and any expert user installs and enables VPN apps (such as OpenVPN, Hotspot Shield, ProtonVPN, NordVPN, PureVPN etc.), he can easily get access to Facebook. So, system administrators should also block popular VPN apps so that user cannot use those VPN servers. Blocking VPN apps is not so [...]
