Well put, Joe.
One think I would add, don't withhold information. If you want list members to help, don't make us guess what you have, tell us as much of the configuration as you know. You will get quicker, more concise answers that way.

Tim,

It is not a matter of being rude. If you are working in this space (networking), it is implied that you already know how to subnet IP addresses. I have been watching this thread go on for a while now and I have to say that if you are this thin skinned, maybe you may want to find something else to do for a living.

You will find some users here harsh at times, and this is because you haven’t done your own research first. There is plenty of information on the web to teach you about IP’s and subnet’s. here is one I use a lot, http://www.aelius.com/njh/subnet_sheet.html it is a subnet cheat sheet. When I first got into this business, I bought a book called “Subnetting for Dummies” and I bought Dennis’ book.

You will get folks here popping off when you tell them you have a /13 subnet when actually it is a /27. This in itself speaks volumes as to how much you understand about subnets. This is the reason for the reference material they gave you. This was not being rude, period.

The whole point on this is do your own research and then ask questions, not ask questions and then do the research. No one here is going to do the work for you. We will help you along the way but we will not carry the water for you. We all have companies to run and employees to deal with.

I personally will be willing to help you, but you have better have done your research first. This is how 99% of us are.

So, put your big boy pants on and get to work.

“Networking All-In-One For Dummies”

http://www.amazon.ca/Networking-All---One-Dummies-Doug/dp/1118380983/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1419223262&sr=8-1&keywords=networking+for+dummies

Also, for people new to MikroTik Dennis Burgess’ book Learn RouterOS has lots of good information in it.

http://www.amazon.ca/Learn-RouterOS-Edition-Dennis-Burgess-ebook/dp/B005OY0JJY

He also has video’s on his website that you can download from training sessions.

Greg Sowell has lots of videos on YouTube that cover many thinks in RouterOS – they are definitely worth checking out.

I highly recommend if you can, spend the money and go to training courses, they are worth every penny.

    A /13 provides 524,286 usable IPs (before further subnetting).

    I think people in this thread need to find a "Routing for dummies"
    (no name calling intended) book or video. This is all networking
    101 stuff that people either have completely wrong or are clueless
    about.

    You have a /13 or a /28 which provides 14 usable ip, s.  1 is for
    gateway and the other is your primary router.  To control your
    traffic your customer gateway is the IP on your router.

    The one they gave you is critical.  The fact that you did not use
    it is
    probably an indication of why are are needing help with this. The
    list
    is not the place to give a full IP routing tutorial, but you need
    to use
    the .240, which also a /28 and has 16 address, 14 of which can be
    used
    by devices.  The remainder of the 256 block space can be divided and
    used however you want.
    So, assuming that your are using the first 16 addresses, you could
    put 8
    address somewhere on your network by putting a.b.c.17/29 on a router
    port.  That becomes the gateway address for devices that connect
    to that
    port.  In OSPF you will tell it to redistribute connected routes
    and you
    will put a.b.c.16/29 in the Network section.
