  Verify the twenty unconfirmed models

  Expected Q4 2026 / Q1 2027

  For twenty of the 136 models the interface names were never confirmed on real hardware. The script warns about it. Owning one helps more than code here.

  Verify Wi-Fi 7 band settings on real hardware

  Expected Q4 2026 / Q1 2027

  Does band=5ghz-be restrict the radio to that standard or not? The question is open and the answer decides what the tool should emit for Wi-Fi 7.

  SwOS next to RouterOS: VLAN settings translated

  For CRS switches that can run both SwOS and RouterOS: the VLAN settings as SwOS shows them on screen, next to the RouterOS commands that do the same. Where a SwOS setting has no exact RouterOS equivalent, the table says so. First as a view next to the script, later as a clickable practice page.

  Topology for multi-device sites

  Live since 13 Sep 2026

  A site now has Cabling: which port of which device goes to which other device. Those ports become the trunks carrying every VLAN, get a comment naming the far end on both sides, and the checks refuse a cable on the WAN port or a port used twice. A button fills in a starting point, and the handover sheet shows the cabling.

  Traffic matrix between VLANs

  Live since 13 Sep 2026

  Under Firewall, Traffic between VLANs now offers the matrix: tick per VLAN which other networks it may reach. Everything else is blocked, for IPv4 and IPv6. Switching it on starts from what is open today, and the handover sheet shows the matrix.

  Choose which RouterOS version you generate for

  Live since 13 Sep 2026

  Under System you now pick the RouterOS version on the device, and an import takes it from the export. The script follows what the manual states per version: the wifi menu before 7.13, adlist from 7.15, device-mode before 7.17 and the default firewall from 7.21. The target is written at the top of the script.

  Save a configuration or site as a file and open it again later

  Live since 13 Sep 2026

  A site with multiple devices can now be saved as a file, just like a single device, and Open a saved file loads either back in, in another browser too. The file holds the passwords, so keep it with the customer records.

  Printable handover sheet

  Live since 13 Sep 2026

  Next to the script there is now Handover sheet: ports, VLANs, addresses, internet, Wi-Fi, VPN and port forwards on paper or as a PDF, with space for the serial number and a signature. For a site, a cover page plus a page per device. Passwords only if you tick the box.

  Provider presets (KPN, Ziggo, Odido, Telekom, Swisscom, Free)

  Live since 13 Sep 2026

  At the top of WAN you now pick your provider: VLAN, DHCP or PPPoE and the IPv6 prefix are set straight away, with a note on what the preset does not cover, such as TV and telephony. Fixed along the way: a DHCP or static uplink on a VLAN put the wrong interface in the WAN list, so NAT did not work.

  Diff against a running device export

  Live since 13 Sep 2026

  Below the script there is now Compare with the device: paste the router export and get only the lines that change. An object that is already there is never removed and created again, only the values that differ are set; firewall tables where order matters are replaced as a whole, and the output says so. After an import the export is already filled in.

  Add CHR, x86 and CCR

  Live since 13 Sep 2026

  The CHR and the CCR models, including the older CCR1xxx series, are in the catalogue, and RouterOS on your own PC or server (x86) has been added. For CHR and x86 you give the number of network cards yourself, and no RouterBOOT setting is written.

  More languages than Dutch and English

  Live since 13 Sep 2026

  The configurator can now be used in German, French and Spanish too: wizard, fields, help texts, warnings and handover sheet. The MikroTik manual stays Dutch and English for now; from those languages you land on the English version.

  Library of shared recipes

  Live since 13 Sep 2026

  The wizard now has Or start from a recipe: a guest network, two internet connections with failover, smart home devices kept apart, an office with CAPsMAN, WireGuard for phone and laptop, and a café hotspot. We built and checked these recipes ourselves; you suggest your own through the form, so it is checked before anyone else gets it.

  Combine options in the wizard

  Live since 13 Sep 2026

  A role that routes now starts the wizard with Combine: tick VLANs, VPN, CAPsMAN, bandwidth or IPv6 and the wizard adds that block's questions. Unticking keeps what you already filled in.

  CAP role in the wizard

  Live since 13 Sep 2026

  The wizard now has its own role for an access point managed by CAPsMAN: everything bridged, a management address and the controller address. SSIDs and security come from the controller.

  Rollback script alongside the configuration

  Live since 13 Sep 2026

  Next to Download there is now Rollback script: a second script that removes every object the configuration adds, found again by its own name or comment so it never touches anything else. Addresses and the bridge go last. Settings that are only changed are listed as not undone, without their values, and the exact way back is still the backup from step 1.

  Support SwOS devices

  Live since 14 Sep 2026

  For a SwOS switch the tool now gives a setup sheet: tab by tab what to fill in, in the field names from the SwOS manual. Next to it a push script (BETA), a feature of eXtreme Hosting used at your own risk: it makes a backup first, stops on an unknown SwOS version and leaves the management address and your own port alone.

  Offbridge port for emergency access

  Live since 13 Sep 2026

  Under Bridge & ports, Emergency access: a port kept out of the bridge with its own address and optional DHCP. It is in the LAN list, stays reachable with Management VLAN only switched on, and is refused when its subnet overlaps another.

  Switch IPv6 off, properly

  Live since 13 Sep 2026

  Under IPv6 you can now pick IPv6 switched off completely: the stack goes off, the drop rules stay in place for when an update turns it back on, and the bridge and the switch chip stop passing IPv6, using rextended's rules for both kinds of chip.
