Gateway & AP – Set-Up Guide
Configuring MikroTik Gateway

This chapter describes how to configure your MikroTik gateway.
If you are using a MikroTik device that is already running in a production network, we recommend creating a backup of your current configuration. Go to Files > Backup, then click to back up your current configs to the file. Optionally, drag and drop the new backup file to your desktop to save it locally.

Vital WiFi is already supplied with a pre-configured gateway, ready to work. If you prefer to add another gateway, please proceed as described in the Adding a New Gateway.

Prerequisites

  • Your MikroTik router must have version 6.46.7 or greater. In case you have hardware with an older version, you need to upgrade it.
  • Ensure that the File list or the Flash folder (if your MikroTik device has a flash folder) is empty before proceeding.

Check if your MikroTik has the Flash folder. Log in with Winbox, select Files.The File List appears, and please check whether it contains a folder named Flash.
