[App_rpt-users] mikrotik and Allstar registration problem

[David McGough]

Hi Ross,

>From what you describe, this isn't an Asterisk/AllStar problem at
all--your router is load balancing across multiple Internet (WAN)
connections.

You need to add a source route for the IP address of your Asterisk server 
that guarantees that your router always uses the proper WAN connection for 
this host.

I recommend finding a -local- MikroTik network guru. The problem with 
working on this kind of stuff remotely is that, with one accidental 
misstep, you're down and they can't get back in.  Oops!
