Misc MikroTik/RouterOS StreetPass Relay

[mooseable]

Hi Guys. I just set up my MikroTik router (RB591Ui-2HnD) as a StreetPass Relay but it should work with any wireless MikroTik/RouterOS device. I've also configured it to auto-rotate ~190 MAC addresses every 24 hours (~1 pass every 8 minutes).

If you're interested in doing this yourself AND you want to keep your WiFi connection secure, you can do the following;

Set wlan1's SSID to "attwifi"
Enable WPA2 aes encryption and give it a key of your choice.
On your DS, set up "attwifi" as a connection profile using the WPA2 key you used on the Router.

Now the fun part, the auto-rotation.
Go into SYSTEM, then into SCRIPTS.
Create a new script and call it "rotate-streetpass-mac"
Grant the script full policy rights for simplicity's sake.
In the source section, enter the following;

:global matchingmac "false"
:global newmac 4E:53:50:4F:4F:00
:global currentmac [/interface wireless get wlan1 mac-address]
:global maclist [:toarray COMMA-SEPARATED-MAC-ADDRESSES-GO-HERE]
:foreach macaddress in=$maclist do={
:if ($macaddress = $currentmac) do={
  :global matchingmac "true"
} else={
  :if ($matchingmac = "true") do={
  :global newmac $macaddress
  }
:global matchingmac "false"
}
}
/interface wireless set wlan1 mac-address=$newmac
/interface wireless disable wlan1
/interface wireless enable wlan1
:log info "Wifi old mac is $currentmac has been changed to $newmac"

Replace the "COMMA-SEPARATED-MAC-ADDRESSES-GO-HERE" with your list of mac addresses. I got my list from this awesomely maintained spreadsheet

Also, the line ":global newmac 4E:53:50:4F:4F:00" should have the mac address of the FIRST mac address in your list of comma separated mac addresses. I hope that makes sense.

Now save the script


Lastly, go to SYSTEM, then SCHEDULER

Create a new schedule and call it whatever you want
Set the start time to now
Set the Interval to (8 hours / The number of MAC addresses) with a minimum of ~8 minutes. Feel free to experiment, but I've had great success with ~8 minute rotations.
Set the "On Event" to "rotate-streetpass-mac" or whatever you called the script earlier.
Set the policy to Read/Write
Save the schedule


And you're done! The only issue I had was to do with the streetpasses not registering in some games, even though the pass registered in the mii-plaza. I fixed this by (on the 3DS) going in to settings, data management, streetpass management then disabling streetpass on the mii-plaza.

At the time of this post, the mac address list I'm using is below, but I recommend using the spreadsheet mentioned above for the most up-to-date addresses.
