MikroTik FAQ – Ask Me Anything
Ask me anything about MikroTik and help me build a FAQ.
I have worked with MikroTik routers for many years and have written many MikroTik tutorials here on my blog jcutrer.com.
Now, this page is a place for you to ask me MikroTik and RouterOS questions. I will try to answer them and share the responses with the larger MikroTik community.

I have two questions about using RouterOS v7. The first is how to configure L2TP/IPSec with certificates vs psk for Mac (MacBook Pro instead of IOS)? The second question is; How to setup the new CAPsMAN with the 802.11ax wireless access point (specifically the WAP with 2x 1Gb Ethernet Ports)?
I have a WireGuard setup from an rb5009 that I use as the client router to my rb4011 in another country which I use as the server router. I move every two years for work hence I require a VPN setup as such.
My question is do you recommend WireGuard or IKEv2? I have had nothing but issues with WireGuard with MTU problems.. slow speed, some sites not working, trying out mangle rules etc.
And my second question is would you be able to audit my configs if I send them to you and tell me what to fix? I am not a Mikrotik expert and I don’t have a great understanding of the firewall section. I am willing to pay. Thanks!
i would like to have:
-eth0:WAN dhcp client
-eth1:LAN1_dhcp server, 192.168.11.1/24
-eth2:LAN2_dhcp server, 192.168.12.1/24
-eth3:LAN3_dhcp server, 192.168.13.1/24
-eth4:LAN4_dhcp server, 192.168.14.1/24
eth1-4 have the ability to access the internet, but not be able to talk to each other. I would appreciate some help with the config please.
