In case the IP connection is not available, the Winbox tool (https://mt.lv/winbox) can be used to connect to the MAC address of the device.

Buttons and Jumpers

The reset button has these functions:

  • Hold this button during boot time until the user LED light starts flashing, and release the button to reset the RouterOS configuration.
  • Keep holding the button for 5 more seconds or until the user LED turns off, then release it to make the RouterBOARD look for Netinstall servers. The first Ethernet port is used for the Netinstall process.

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. Release the button before LED begins to flash, to only load the backup RouterBOOT without resetting. This is useful for RouterBOOT debugging and recovery.
