About this site

The goal for this site is to become a community contributed collection of facts, figures,  ideas and support for Mikrotik configurations and especially for showing ways of  doing things ‘outside the box’.

About the authors

Andrew Cox aka Omega-00: 

I am an active contributor to the MikroTik forum as well as a full time network administrator, working on both wireless and wired networks, specialising in hotspot solutions using an in-house software solution that inter-operates with MikroTik RouterOS.

I also enjoy consulting to other companies around the world on jobs that are unique, often for free.

My experience with MikroTik began in 2006 and has included a number of major scripting projects including my first major project;  a self contained MikroTik usage monitoring system that can still be found both on this site and over on the MikroTik wiki – http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Automated_Usage_Script_without_usermanager

My pet MikroTik hate is the lack of specifics. From change logs not detailing ALL changes, to missing documentation on new features that are announced in newsletters only!

Regardless, I still enjoy working with MikroTik products to this day 🙂

I enjoy working with computers by day, playing on computers by night and am always happy to help people with my knowledge of RouterOS.
