Then as the others have mentioned, make sure DHCP is off. I'd say that's where you're likely getting the confusion. Also, the Huawei EchoLife device probably has DHCP which it'll be passing to the WAN of your Routerboard. That's OK but just make sure it's *not* in the same range as the Routerboard uses for the LAN eg Have the Echolife give out 192.168.1.0/24 and then have your Routerboard give out IP's on 192.168.5.0/24 If the WAN of the Routerboard is the same IP range as the LAN, it's gonna lose the plot at you.

So this is the set-up in our cupboard, Based on photo, and refer to Damien's Fibre comes into Cupboard and into the Huawei on the Left, (all Cat6 cables then run from hear to each individual room where needed) Grey Cable from the Huawei goes into the MicroTik on the MicroTik cables are: 1: Grey - Input from Huawei 2: Blue goes to TP-Link TL-SG108 3: Green to Master Bedroom 4: Dining Room 5: Bedroom 2 Then obviousl on the 8 Splitter 1: Input from #2 on MicroTik 2: EMPTY 3: Lounge Rest to other rooms 7235	stevensaaron (6348)

Also one of the issues, I hadn't been advised the right plug in the lounge was phone line so that's what the issue was there. Will keep testing for the dhcp though. Still getting some small issues so will try the suggestions	dpDesignz (15919)
