Even for non-technical users, the MikroTik routers ship set up how a consumer would expect it I think.
The configuration after a reset/as shipped (at least on all my old models) is a local network at 192.168.88.0/24 with NAT and DHCP set up, wireless enabled and bridged to lan, etc.
Only time it's going to get a bit dicey is if they want to customize the configuration (e.g., forward ports). But for 90% of people that's not going to be an issue.
- MikusR 6y agoForward ports is probably the only consumer feature not available in the quickset.
- alyandon 6y agoMy biggest struggle with my Mikrotik was discovering how much consumer grade routers do behind the scenes automagically that commercial grade routers will not. For instance, I wanted working NAT reflection and since my external IPv4 address is dynamic I wanted to construct a static ruleset that didn't specifically reference it. The solution there required me to exclude traffic destined for my LAN address range in my dnat forwarding rules to get it working properly. Fun stuff.
