• Check action center to see if your Windows device supports Bluetooth. If it does, there'll be a Bluetooth Bluetooth logo button in action center. Make sure it's turned on.
• If you don't see the Bluetooth Bluetooth logo button in action center, try updating your device's driver. Here's how:
  1

  Go to Start Windows logo Start button, enter Device Manager, and select it from the list of results.

  2

  In Device Manager, locate your device, press and hold (or right-click) it, select Update driver, select Search automatically for updated driver software, and then follow the rest of the steps.
• If Bluetooth is turned on and the driver is up to date but your device still doesn't work, try removing the device and re-pairing it. Here's how:
  1

  Go to Start Windows logo Start button, enter Devices, select Bluetooth and other devices settings > select the device > Remove device > Yes.

  2

  Try pairing again.
• Make sure that the Bluetooth-enabled audio device is on and discoverable. How you do this varies with devices, so check the info that came with your device or go to the manufacturers website.

Summary

RADIUS, short for Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service, is a remote server that provides authentication and accounting facilities to various network appliances. RADIUS authentication and accounting gives the ISP or network administrator the ability to manage PPP user access and accounting from one server throughout a large network. The MikroTik RouterOS has a RADIUS client that can authenticate for HotSpot, PPP, PPPoE, PPTP, L2TP, and ISDN connections. The attributes received from the RADIUS server override the ones set in the default profile, but if some parameters are not received they are taken from the respective default profile.

The RADIUS server database is consulted only if no matching user access record is found in the router's local database.

If RADIUS accounting is enabled, accounting information is also sent to the RADIUS server default for that service.

RADIUS Client

This sub-menu allows adding/remove RADIUS clients. 

Properties

Example

To set up a RADIUS Client for HotSpot and PPP services that will authenticate against a RADIUS Server (10.0.0.3), you need to do the following:

To set up a RADIUS Client with RadSec, you need to do the following:

To view RADIUS Client statistics, you need to do the following:

Make sure you enable RADIUS authentication for the desired services:

Connection Terminating from RADIUS

This facility supports unsolicited messages sent from the RADIUS server. Unsolicited messages extend RADIUS protocol commands, that allow terminating a session that has already been connected from the RADIUS server. For this purpose, DM (Disconnect-Messages) is used. Disconnect messages cause a user session to be terminated immediately. 

Properties

Connecting to the Router

There are two types of routers:

• With default configuration
• Without default configuration. When no specific configuration is found, IP address 192.168.88.1/24 is set on ether1 or combo1, or sfp1.

More information about the current default configuration can be found in the Quick Guide document that came with your device. The quick guide document will include information about which ports should be used to connect for the first time and how to plug in your devices.

This document describes how to set up the device from the ground up, so we will ask you to clear away all defaults.

When connecting the first time to the router with the default username admin and no password, you will be asked to reset or keep the default configuration (even if the default config has only an IP address). Since this article assumes that there is no configuration on the router you should remove it by pressing "r" on the keyboard when prompted or click on the "Remove configuration" button in WinBox.

Router without Default Configuration

If there is no default configuration on the router you have several options, but here we will use one method that suits our needs.

Connect Routers ether1 port to the WAN cable and connect your PC to ether2. Now open WinBox and look for your router in neighbor discovery. See detailed example in Winbox article.

If you see the router in the list, click on MAC address and click Connect.

The simplest way to make sure you have absolutely clean router is to run

Configuring IP Access

Since MAC connection is not very stable, the first thing we need to do is to set up a router so that IP connectivity is available:

• add bridge interface and bridge ports;
• add an IP address to LAN interface;
• set up a DHCP server.

Set bridge and IP address are quite easy:

If you prefer WinBox/WeBfig as configuration tools:

The next step is to set up a DHCP server. We will run the setup command for easy and fast configuration:

Notice that most of the configuration options are automatically determined and you just simply need to hit the enter key.

Now connected PC should be able to get a dynamic IP address. Close the Winbox and reconnect to the router using IP address (192.168.88.1)

Configuring Internet Connection

The next step is to get internet access to the router. There can be several types of internet connections, but the most common ones are:

• dynamic public IP address;
• static public IP address;
• PPPoE connection.

Dynamic Public IP

Dynamic address configuration is the simplest one. You just need to set up a DHCP client on the public interface. DHCP client will receive information from an internet service provider (ISP) and set up an IP address, DNS, NTP servers, and default route for you.

After adding the client you should see the assigned address and status should be bound

Static Public IP

In the case of static address configuration, your ISP gives you parameters, for example:

• IP: 1.2.3.100/24
• Gateway: 1.2.3.1
• DNS: 8.8.8.8

These are three basic parameters that you need to get the internet connection working

To set this in RouterOS we will manually add an IP address, add a default route with a provided gateway, and set up a DNS server

PPPoE Connection

PPPoE connection also gives you a dynamic IP address and can configure dynamically DNS and default gateway. Typically service provider (ISP) gives you a username and password for the connection

Verify Connectivity

After successful configuration, you should be able to access the internet from the router.

Verify IP connectivity by pinging known IP address (google DNS server for example)

Verify DNS request

If everything is set up correctly, ping in both cases should not fail.

In case of failure refer to the troubleshooting section

Protecting the Router

Now anyone over the world can access our router so it is the best time to protect it from intruders and basic attacks

User Password Access

MikroTik routers require password configuration, we suggest using a password generator tool to create secure and non-repeating passwords. With secure password we mean:

• Minimum 12 characters;
• Include numbers, Symbols, Capital and lower case letters;
• Is not a Dictionary Word or Combination of Dictionary Words;

Another option to set a password,

We strongly suggest using a second method or Winbox interface to apply a new password for your router, just to keep it safe from other unauthorized access.

Make sure you remember the password! If you forget it, there is no recovery. You will need to reinstall the router!

You can also add more users with full or limited router access in /user menu
