Common MikroTik WiFi mistakes and how to avoid them
Ron Touw (LinITX, United Kingdom)
Abstract
Installing and configuring WiFi is about understanding more than just how to configure RouterOS. By avoiding common mistakes and assumptions made when deploying WiFi using RouterOS can lead to a higher quality of installation. We will be covering some of the pitfalls we've seen and show how to avoid them whether installing vanilla RouterOS based WiFi radios or preferably CAPsMAN.

Script your life easier
Daniel Starnowski (StarTik, United Kingdom)
Abstract
One of the unique and loved features of RouterOS - scripts! This presentation will provide even more reasons to fall in love with them, showing some usual and unusual options they give.
- what they give us (apart from looking cool)
- how we can run them (manually, scheduled, different triggering "events", and - YAY!! - SNMP!)
- how they can communicate with users (and other systems)
- how they can process data (variables, loops, arrays, yes - also multi-dimentional ones!)
- why defining functions makes it even better!
- how we can make few MikroTiks "talk to each other", triggereing some actions
- ... other nice features :)
And a bonus:
- can I play battleships between 2 MikroTik routers? :D

This is NOT a tutorial/training/course. To learn scripting you need to go online start writing yourself.
This IS a presentation to inspire, entertain and show how SIMPLE and COOL the scripting can be.
