Hi. I am new here... just recently got a RB5009.

So far all wonderful, got it working and network runs well.

Only thing I dont get to work somehow is ipv6 with Time Internet.

I get an ipv6 from Time, however my clients dont get an ipv6 and cant connect to any ipv6-address on WAN.

I looked for some kind of tutorial for setting this up, can someone hint me into the right direction or even give me simple instructions?

Would be very much appreciated.

I see.. well then I hope that gets fixed soon...

When adding a DHCP Client in IPv6 I get an IP-address but somehow not able to get it to my other clients...

Thanks for the response.

I actually have IPv6 address lists for each interface .../64...

Guess I need some time over one of the next weekends to figure this all out.

Thanks for offering your support.

With 7.1 I actually managed to get a /64 prefix.

So my RB5009 is getting a prefix, auto-creating a pool.
Then assigning one address from the pool to the bridge works BUT assigning another address gives an error:
"address pool error: Pool ipv6poolname exhausted - no more addresses left! (14)"
I have tried all address options (with/without EUI64, Advertise, No DAD) but still same error.

Is the reason the following problem that still persists on RB5009? :

I am using Time Internet.

I get a /64 ipv6 prefix from them, but then can as described, can only assign 1x ipv6:



Assigning this to the (main-)bridge it doesnt do anything... cant get out into the web with ipv6...

Simplest way go start is;

- Download Winbox
- Plug-in WAN from Modem to ETH1, and your computer into ETH2...
- Connect with Winbox to the router
- Go to "Quick Set" and check for updates, install updates, reboot, and reconnect to router
- Go again to "Quick Set"
-- Configuration: Router
-- Internet: Port ETH1
-- Address Aquisition: PPPoE
--- PPPoE User (your time username)
--- PPPoE Password (password)

-- Local Network
--- set as you need

You should be connected to internet... now you can setup your LAN as you need etc.

You are the man!

Using just ::/64 did the job.


Thanks a lot

RB5009 was also my first Mikrotik, still learning. But it seems like once you get the hang of it, it becomes easy and clear to setup.
Also the community (here and on the Mikrotik Forum, reddit, etc.) is very helpful.

As next steps make sure your firewall etc. are properly configured, for some reason with my (at that time beta) more or less all ports where open...
Learned that pretty quick when my pihole showed DNS requests from some random clients from WAN

I am using Time Broadband and would like to get rid of the fibre modem and instead use a SFP Module in my Mikrotik Router.

I heard that it is possible but have to get Time Broadband Support to update the MAC address in their system...

Anyone here has already done this and who can share a how-to?

Thanks man - in the meantime I got a stick... but still struggling to make it work.

See also here; I posted directly in the thread you suggested.

And again thanks for your support so far - I am not a total networking noob but only do it more as a hobby at home and know that I really need to learn a lot more
