Thanks. Just in time for me 👍
I was looking around for ways to do exactly this for a couple of days now.

Woot. Glad I could help. I hope Mikrotik updates Winbox so that the QR codes can show correctly, but overall, it's been a fantastic addition.

Thanks sir !!!

[@survivingnetworkingandit2084]

Anytime!

Nice, good that you showed how to send it to users without being at the local site, that was the missing piece I didnt understand.
Even better, is that with the relay servers, one does not even need to have a public IP or forward a port....... However as noted, its reliant on third party (but free) and right now a single point of failure.......

Yes, it was helpful Sean, thanks. I have a Public IP but have you tested BTH where the home router is on CGNAT and did it work?

[@princeofoman876]

The VPN option does not appear in the IP list

[@seantellsit1431]

Are you using the latest version of RouterOS 7.12?
