Thanks for all the replies, I have all the firewalls disabled on the SMC Modem, with my Static IP set on the Mikrotik. The PPTP Tunnel came up and ran just fine when I configured it, it was working great when I left the office last night, but this morning It was running very slow. I just setup an IPIP tunnel, and did my EOIP tunnel over that, and it came right up, we'll see if it's still working in a few hours. Nate On 7/26/2011 10:45 AM, Jon Bane wrote:

I have GRE tunnels and l2tp tunnels over those comcast boxes. l2tp is less hassle because it handles NAT, but you can do GRE instead -- just make sure you assign yourself a public static IP.
First, go into the gateway and make sure all firewalls are disabled (it has a web GUI).
Second, if it's the comcast SMC 4 port "gateway" thing I think it is, the device is somewhat retarded. You plug into the switch and pull DHCP, and you get a natted address and it routes.
You can plug into the same switch and set a static IP on your device (internet public IP), and it will work without NAT, assuming your account has a static IP.
Set said static IP on your microtik box and it should pass end-to-end without drops.
Was working on the same reply as Paul. You assign your static to your Mircotik box and check the box in the WebGUI (default is http://10.1.10.1) to "Disable Firewall for True Static IP Subnet Only" on the firewall tab.
