As avinash said, you could try NATing the interface (srcnat):

/ip firewall nat
add chain=srcnat \
    action=masquerade \
    to-addresses=0.0.0.0 \ 
    out-interface=dongle_interface

However, nothing will work if the dongle isn't registering with the
network, so are the right LEDs lit? Generally a steady LED indicates
connection (or random flickering, but not rhythmic flashing).

To set it up as a bridge you will probably need to connect to the
dongle from a PC to reconfigure it.

When you get it work, blog it and post the link :-)

Regards, K.

Hi Matt

 

Huawei E8372 LTE dongles is a dual band (LTE + WIFI) dongle.  Do this model
support bridge mode? Seems like default it is a router and give DHCP too. 

 

One way to use it with mikrotik is to connect your microtik as a wifi client
and srcnat local network with action masquerading. This will be a dual NAT
connection.

 

First you have to log in to the dongle web interface and see the config. I
do not have a dongle to check with me.

Having all sorts of dramas configuring with Mikrotik RB devices. everything
looks normal, device appears up, DHCP allocates a local IP but no internet

I've tried all the different APNs (this is on Telstra) but same result -
unable to route traffic or even run a targeted ping via the LTE interface.

 

Would love to know if anyone else has encountered the same prob. and if you
would be so kind as to share some wisdom.

 

Many thanks
