So, now that I have this new fiber connection, I am asking for a little help in dividing it up for use.
The fiber comes to a main tower (tower 1) that has a hefty MT 386 based router. My /24 is delivered to me on a /30 (Lord knows how that works- I've tried to figure it out) This tower has a fat PtP link to another tower (tower 2) with another MT there. This tower has PtP links to 2 other towers (Tower 3 and 4) that both have MTs at them. Tower 4 has 2 PtP links to 2 more towers (Towers 5 and 6) Towers 2-6 all have hotspots running on them dishing out 10.5.50.x addresses to clients. This is what I would like to do: Have different subnets (/28 or /29) out of my /24 at all 6 towers. One address from each subnet would be the main WAN address for each hotspot. The remaining addresses from the /28 or /29 at each tower would be for equipment at the tower OR for assigning to certain hotspot users who needed a public. Question #1. Does this seem like a reasonable plan? Question #2. Is there someone who will help me figure this out?

This is the card I have selected, so far. Does anyone know for sure that this card will be recognized by ROS and work for what I need. I heard that ROS is a bit picky when it comes to this. http://tinyurl.com/4sgkstr Thanks Ralph _______________________________________________ Mikrotik mailing list [email protected] http://www.butchevans.com/mailman/listinfo/mikrotik Visit http://blog.butchevans.com/ for tutorials related to Mikrotik RouterOS _______________________________________________ Mikrotik mailing list [email protected] http://www.butchevans.com/mailman/listinfo/mikrotik Visit http://blog.butchevans.com/ for tutorials related to Mikrotik RouterOS
