MikroTik MQS

The MikroTik MQS, or Mobile Quick Setup tool, designated by its manufacture part number RBMQS, is a compact, innovative device designed to enhance and simplify the setup, configuration, and troubleshooting of other MikroTik devices within a network. Tailored to meet the needs of network administrators and IT professionals, the MQS acts as a standalone, portable network management tool, enabling users to manage MikroTik devices without the need for a laptop or stationary power source.

At its core, the MikroTik MQS is powered by a robust set of features encapsulated in a small, durable form factor, making it an essential tool for field technicians and network administrators on the go. The device is essentially a wireless access point that can serve as a temporary network to configure MikroTik devices via a wireless connection. This capability is particularly useful in situations where the target device is not yet connected to a network, or when an existing network is down, and the devices need reconfiguration or troubleshooting.

The MQS is equipped with a built-in Ethernet port, allowing it to connect directly to a MikroTik device or any other Ethernet-compatible device that requires configuration or management. This direct connection facilitates a stable and reliable link for network adjustments, independent of wireless signal strength or interference that might affect wireless connections. The device also includes a USB port, which can be used to power the MQS itself, eliminating the need for an external power source. This USB-powered design enhances the MQS's portability, allowing it to be powered by a standard USB power bank or any USB port available on a computer or other devices.

The operational flexibility of the MQS is further complemented by its compatibility with MikroTik's robust RouterOS software. This compatibility ensures that users can access the full suite of RouterOS features for device configuration and management, directly from the MQS. Whether it's adjusting network settings, updating firmware, or performing diagnostics, the MQS paired with RouterOS provides a comprehensive toolset for network administration tasks.
