Setting up your Mikrotik router to use My Private Network’s MyTelly service should take just a few minutes by following the steps below. Please note that your router needs to be connected to the Internet and your computer is able to browse the web before moving on with the instructions below. You do not need to be connected to our VPN for MyTelly to work, kindly disconnect from the VPN if you have it turned on.

Note: These instructions were written based on the Webfig interface. The instructions will differ slightly if you’re using the Winbox interface, but the principal should be the same.
