I recently bought an Ubiquiti AP to complement my mikrotik router; to better manage it I also bought a Ubiquiti Gateway Ultra.
In this setup WIFI is on network A (Ubiquiti) , cable and internet on network B (mikrotik); I tried to have two ways connection between the two networks, but B to A will never work because Ubiquiti is blocking the WAN incoming traffic, no matter what (no firewall will override this).
So I tried this setup: the Ubiquiti gets his "WAN" address from VLAN Z (different from network B) and mikrotik gets a routable address from VLAN Y on the Ubiquiti side; this way I can route through that and inter LAN communication works flawlessly. But internet doesn't, nor for wifi devices, nor for cabled one.
Is there a way to make this work? What did I do wrong. The two cables are attached to two different switches (one on ETH1-5, one on ETH6-10).
Any help is much appreciated here, on the Ubiquiti forum the suggestion was to throw away the mikrotik...
