Configuration

Once logged in, we recommend clicking the “Check for updates” button in the QuickSet menu, as updating your RouterOS software to the latest version ensures the best performance and stability. For wireless models, please make sure you have selected the country where the device will be used, to conform to local regulations. RouterOS includes many configuration options in addition to what is described in this document. We suggest starting here to get yourself accustomed to the possibilities: https://mt.lv/help. In case an IP connection is not available, the Winbox tool (https://mt.lv/winbox) can be used to connect to the MAC address of the device from the LAN side (all access is blocked from the Internet port by default). For recovery purposes, it is possible to boot the device from the network, see a section Reset button.

Mounting

The device is designed to be used indoors, by placing it on the desktop. We recommend using Cat5 shielded cable. When using and installing this device please pay attention to the Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) safety distance with a minimum of 20 cm between the radiator and your body.

Extension Slots and Ports

• Five individual 10/100 Ethernet ports, supporting automatic cross/straight cable correction (Auto MDI/X), so you can use either straight or cross-over cables for connecting to other network devices.
• One Integrated Wireless 2.4 GHz 802.11b/g/n, 2×2 MIMO with two onboard PIF antennas, max gain 1.5 dBi
• One USB type-A slot
• The Ether5 port supports PoE output for powering other RouterBOARD devices. The port has an auto-detection feature, so you can connect Laptops and other non-PoE devices without damaging them. The PoE on Ether5 outputs approximately 2 V below input voltage and supports up to 0.58 A (So provided 24 V PSU will provide 22 V/0.58 A output to the Ether5 PoE port).

Reset button

The reset button has three functions:

• Hold this button during boot time until the LED light starts flashing, release the button to reset RouterOS configuration (total 5 seconds).
• Keep holding for 5 more seconds, LED turns solid, release now to turn on CAP mode. The device will now look for a CAPsMAN server (total 10 seconds).
• Or Keep holding the button for 5 more seconds until LED turns off, then release it to make the RouterBOARD look for Netinstall servers (total 15 seconds).
• Regardless of the above option used, the system will load the backup RouterBOOT loader if the button is pressed before power is applied to the device. Useful for RouterBOOT debugging and recovery.

Operating System Support

The device supports RouterOS software version 6. The specific factory- installed version number is indicated in the RouterOS menu /system resource. Other operating systems have not been tested.
