Mikrotik PoE Disconnects

Hi,

Good day. I am using dual WAN on my home setup, and I disconnected on:

-after launching PoE. Sometimes it just stay on the "connecting" phase and doesnt go to checking resources
-after logging in the character page doesnt show up
-maps doesnt load or if I change a map/instance
-and sometimes I just get disconnected for any reason

Although I have 2 internet connection, I did set TCP ports 8095,12995,20487,32000-65000 to use single a single WAN only. I also have captured a few PoE IPs and set it to the same WAN as the TCP ports. If I use WAN1 I cant connect to the game at all. If I use WAN2 then the disconnection I listed above occurs.

Any idea how to fix this?

My mikrotik setup is that I mark the connections for TCP ports 8095,12995,20487,32000-65000 with passthrough. Next thing I mark is the packets for Queue Tree still with passthrough. Last thing is for the mark routing to the specific WAN i want to use.

According to GGG from 2013...

All TCP:

8095

and the range 32768 - 61000


But note that GGG might have changed this over time. So you'll want to find any others yourself...

The easiest method of finding out would be to do it yourself. If you're on Windows, just run netstat to monitor the PathOfExile.exe process. Netstat reference: http://ss64.com/nt/netstat.html

Run netstat with the -b parameter to monitor port traffic with process names included.

You could dump this to a log (eg: netstat -b > netstat.log) and then open it in a good text editor like Notepad++ to filter out everything except for PathOfExile process. Then you could eliminate duplicates to get a full range of ports it uses.


Without port filtering, do you have any PoE latency issues? If not, then obviously you've made it more complicated than it needs to be. The question then becomes, why do you want such security when you're just gaming? Why not enable a big range of ports when you game, then switch it back when you're not gaming?

I do have some experience with the Mikrotik interface, and I've set up a few multi-WAN configurations. Mostly using multi-PPPoE. However, I've never done multi-WAN configs in the Mikrotik interface, so I don't have specific suggestions or recommendations. I do know someone at work with a Mikrotik router using dual DHCP WAN connections through the box. I will have him dump the config file, and set up a bit of a test station to take a look. See if I can spot any potential hang ups.

Some users in general have reported some of the problems you've mentioned. In several cases the problem wasn't local, but at the gateway side .

Have you run a WinMTR test to see if packet loss or latency spikes at the other end that might be causing the problem?

I am aware of that. I did try to monitor all the ports being used by my pc after closing all applications. Edited my firewall and added higher ranges. After that all traffic IP going into my PC, I recorded them created ranges again and labeled them as Poe IPs. After routing this ports & ips, I still get DC from PoE. I also tried routing my PC to a specific WAN for less confusion, but still I get DC.

Latency is just fine. My office is connected to my home internet via p2p wireless. Thats why I have this router for atleast better security and so I can limit bandwidth usage.

Thats great! Hope he can help. I have run mikrotiks ping tool. So I can ping specific WANs to specific IPs. So far while I get DC at PoE, I have consistent ping to google dns with 0% packet loss.
