Question 1

Is this wired only? How difficult is it to set up? I'm looking for a wired only router, with speeds up to 300mb, that isn't complicated to hook up.

Accepted Answer

For normal home / small office use (using NAT), _no setup at all_ is actually required on the non-wireless models from Mikrotik. Plug your Internet connection into port #1 and your devices into ports #2-5, and start browsing.

Basic configurations beyond that (custom DHCP, firewall, logging, USB cellular connections, configuration backups) are fairly straightforward. Many users will likely need to browse the manual or a tutorial to update the software; all configuration can be done via a Windows app (WinBox), a web interface, or a CLI. They are currently testing a mobile configuration app for Android as of late 2017.

Advanced configuration (custom routing and bridging, VPN, etc.) can have a fairly steep learning (but better than Cisco IOS), especially if you don't have prior networking knowledge. There's plenty of room to grow here as your needs evolve, and as long as it is not physically damaged this should still be operational after ten or even twenty years. The software is common across all of the company's routers, so as long as they remain in business you should get free updates, too -- more than can be said for almost any other manufacturer.

Question 2

Does this equipment can do content filtering?

Accepted Answer

Easiest is to use OpenDNS as DNS settings and do content filtering from there.

Question 3

What's best speed we can out of our gigabit fios connection out of this router?

Accepted Answer

I've seen speeds over 900Mbps with this model, but with very few firewall rules. Not sure if the lower speed was due to the router itself or something with the connection / upstream.  If you don't have fasttrack enabled (which it is by default last I knew), you can potentially have deplorable speeds.

If you have a bunch of rules, you may need a model with a beefier CPU.

Question 4

Are any VPN services built in? if so, is gateway2gateway with a cisco RV series router or Shrew Soft Mobile2Gateway client connections possible ?

Accepted Answer

Yes, there is a Quickset function in Winbox configuration tool that will setup a preliminary VPN template for you.  You can then tweak it for your needs.  The Mikrotik wiki and Reddit are best sources of information.  I have hooked this to Cisco many times as well as VPN software tools.  PPTP, L2TP, SSTP, IPSEC, OpenVPN, etc.
