MikroTik Installer NYC
MikroTik is the price-performance sweet spot for serious networking when the budget doesn't stretch to Cisco or Juniper. We use it where it makes sense: ISP-style point-to-point wireless, multi-WAN routing, dedicated firewalling for buildings with strict isolation requirements, and edge routers for offices that have outgrown their consumer router but don't yet need an enterprise stack.
What We Install
hAP & CCR Routers
From the hAP series for small offices to the CCR series for multi-tenant buildings and high-throughput environments.
RouterOS Configuration

Wireless Backhaul
Point-to-point wireless with MikroTik Wireless Wire and SXT for connecting buildings without trenching fiber.
Hotspot & Captive Portal
Hotspot and captive-portal setups for hospitality and retail environments needing branded guest WiFi.
CHR Deployments
Cloud Hosted Router deployments for clients who need a software router in a virtualized environment.
Managed Services
Ongoing RouterOS maintenance with firmware updates, configuration backups, and on-call support.
Where We Install
Multi-tenant rental buildings in the Bronx and Brooklyn that need ISP-grade routing for resident networks. Industrial and warehouse spaces in Maspeth and Long Island City. Long-distance wireless backhaul for properties with detached buildings in Westchester and the Hamptons. Co-working spaces and creative offices in Williamsburg, Industry City, and Bushwick.
MikroTik Installs — Common Questions
MikroTik vs UniFi: when does each make sense?
UniFi is the right pick for most residential and small-commercial wireless installs because the management interface is approachable and the AP performance is excellent. MikroTik wins where you need deep RouterOS routing features, low-cost high-throughput hardware, point-to-point backhaul, or ISP-style network design. We deploy both, often together: MikroTik at the edge or for backhaul, UniFi for indoor wireless.
Can you handle BGP and MPLS configuration?
Yes. We do BGP for clients with multi-WAN failover and MPLS for clients who need labeled forwarding across sites. Both are configured and documented at handover.
How does MikroTik wireless backhaul work between two buildings?
A pair of MikroTik wireless devices form a dedicated link between two structures. With clear line of sight, throughput typically lands in the 800 Mbps to 1.5 Gbps range. Useful for connecting a guest house, pool house, garage office, or detached building without trenching.
Do you replace a consumer router with MikroTik for a small office?
Yes. Typical small-office MikroTik install is a hAP ax3 or RB5009 router, configured with VLAN segmentation and a properly tuned firewall. Cost falls in the $1,500 to $4,000 range including labor.
Will MikroTik integrate with my UniFi access points?
Yes. MikroTik routes, UniFi handles wireless. The two integrate cleanly when configured properly.
Are you available for ongoing RouterOS maintenance?
Yes. We offer managed-network service contracts that include firmware updates, configuration backups, and on-call support.
Westchester Estate Wireless Backhaul
A Westchester estate had a guest house 600 feet from the main house and no clear path for a fiber pull. We installed a MikroTik Wireless Wire link between the two buildings, achieving 1.2 Gbps throughput with sub-1ms latency. Owner runs both buildings on a unified network with no perceptible performance difference between rooms.
