I will be delivering a #Mikrotik MTCNA at #LinITX’s HQ at Needham Market in Suffolk. The location has multiple cheap hotels nearby and is served by fast trains from Ipswich and London but even if you’re not in the UK, London Stansted Airport is also not that far away. Join me for three days of intense RouterOS learning. Theory and loads of labs. What’s not to enjoy? Oh, did I not mention the exam? If you pass you’ll even get a free certificate. 😀 https://linitx.com/product/Ron/18210

Google’s brain fart when I asked about reproducing a stock #MikroTik configuration in FreeBSD.

Alt...

Google basic AI is convinced you simply use the MikroTik configuration import command on FreeBSD because why not?

I built a local YacY search install a month or two back. Don’t understand 90% of the backend settings but I’m sure I’ll figure that out with time. Have told it to crawl only trusted #MikroTik resources every few days. Boy is it fast at generating me results. Zero adverts. Zero unknown algorithms pushing one site above another. I love it. Use it every day now over of any other search engine when researching anything MikroTik related. Have also now added some Ham Radio sites to crawl too

Screenshot of input screen. It has a YACY logo in blue and grey with an input field below it. Options below state one can search for text, images or other more complex options. It also states “Web search by Radio Engineers for Radio Engineers”.

MTCRE 1.4 Understanding Scope and Target Scope
https://zpr.io/y7YZ2cUyA9XC
Learn why recursive static routes in #mikrotik fail when resolver routes are inactive and how scope/target-scope control route visibility. This #mtcre lab explains how next-hop resolution works and why adjusting target-scope restores full connectivity.

@net_gremlin

Du hast wahrscheinlich recht, aber eines nach dem anderen. Wenn überhaupt, würde ich vielleicht die #Fritzbox durch einen #Mikrotik #Router ersetzen. Es sieht aber so aus, als hätte alles wie gewünscht geklappt. Ziel war es, herauszufinden, ob das normale Internet weiterläuft – und das hat funktioniert. Wobei er noch auf einem öffentlichen IPv6-DNS stand, während IPv4 bereits wieder über den Pi-Hole lief. Aber das passt schon. Wichtig ist nur, dass die Frau mich nicht anruft, während ich unterwegs bin. 😜

Proof of concept lab complete (RFC 1925 Truth 1 has been satisfied) and my MikroTik Professionals Conference presentation request has been submitted. Now to start working on the actual presentation in case they actually say yes. #MTPC #MikroTik #NetEng

Customer calls and says a ClaudeGPT generated #MikroTik script won’t run without errors and they’re fast running out of time to get it fixed and no matter how they tell the AI it doesn’t work, it continues to spit out code that has errors they don’t know how to fix. It’s hallucinated CLI commands that simply don’t exist! Also doesn’t even have the correct syntax. It looks great code to the untrained eye but it’s AI slop. I do love the way AI is creating work for me at the moment 🤣

Many have already taken advantage of our early bird pricing for the #MikroTik Professionals Conference but it may be prudent to buy your tickets before the price goes up at the weekend! 😉 We are also very interested in hearing from anyone who wishes to present a MikroTik related topic. https://mtpc.world/ #MTPC #Conference #Prague

New blog post! My adventures in IPv6 in the homelab

https://blog.transitory.social/posts/2025-10-25-adventures-in-ipv6/

It covers going from an IPv4 only to Mikrotik config, all the way to getting Kubernetes running in dual stack mode with pods and services assigned IPv6 addresses

(Note: I have enabled a cache middleware on the blog, so if that explodes someone give a shout and I'll disable it ;) )

I just discovered how good MikroTik routers (all devices in general) are.

RouterOS 7 looks amazing and the web UI is clean, powerful, and fast. Can’t believe I wasted money on cheap TP-Link and Cudy routers that broke when I tried to install OpenWRT. MikroTik gives you real control, pro-level features, and solid firmware right out of the box.

Wish I knew about them earlier. 🥹

@rainer Gerade „mal eben“ getestet und es rockt! Leider habe ich den tor-proxy noch als docker container auf meinem #proxmox laufen und nicht als #mikrotik container.

Eine Test-Linux-VM ist jetzt torifiziert und

Ticket prices for next year’s #MikroTik Professionals Conference are reduced until October 31st. Early birds really do catch the worm as space is also limited for the VIP Dinner so please make sure you book your tickets early rather than at the last minute and find we’re sold out. See https://mtpc.world for more info. Also we’re now calling for presenters for MikroTik related tech talks. Got a great solution using their gear? Tell us about it and you could be presenting it in March! 😀 #MTPC

We are proud to announce the third and highly successful MikroTik Professionals Conference will be held at the Hotel Duo in Prague on the 12th to 13th March 2026.
Tickets are now on sale on our website https://mtpc.world
After negotiations with the hotel, event tickets are now a lower cost than last year and we’ve also managed to negotiate a 40% discount on hotel rooms, so along with low cost flights to/from Prague you now have no excuse to miss the biggest 100% #MikroTik event in Europe 😀

Network Monitoring Part 2

https://blog.hardill.me.uk/2025/09/23/network-monitoring-part-2/

After moving my network setup to a rack I needed to finish configuring my new router (a MikroTik L009UiGS), one of the things I needed to setup was some better network monitoring.

I have previously played with this using Suricata and inserting a small managed switch to act as a network tap. This worked pretty well, but was only monitoring a small subsection of my LAN.

With the new router it […]
