What You Can Do with RouterOS on Your VPS

MikroTik RouterOS is a full-featured network operating system. Running it on a VPS gives you a cloud-hosted software router you can configure for almost any network scenario.

Firewall and Traffic Filtering

RouterOS includes a stateful packet inspection firewall with support for connection tracking, address lists, layer 7 protocol filtering and raw firewall rules. You can build granular rules to control exactly what traffic passes through your VPS.

VPN Server: IPsec, L2TP, OpenVPN, WireGuard

Set up a personal or business VPN server in minutes. RouterOS supports IPsec (IKEv2), L2TP/IPsec, PPTP, SSTP, OpenVPN and WireGuard out of the box. Connect phones, laptops and office devices through your own VPN endpoint.

Routing: BGP, OSPF, RIP and Static Routes

Full dynamic and static routing support. RouterOS handles BGP, OSPF, RIPv1/v2, ECMP and policy-based routing. Useful for ISPs, network engineers, homelabs and anyone who needs advanced route management from a cloud location.

Bandwidth Management and QoS

Shape and prioritise traffic with queues, HTB (Hierarchical Token Bucket), PCQ and burst settings. Useful for ISPs controlling subscriber bandwidth, or anyone who needs to prioritise VoIP and video traffic over bulk downloads.

Hotspot Gateway and User Management

RouterOS includes a built-in hotspot gateway with a customisable login page, user radius authentication, bandwidth per-user limits and session time controls. A popular choice for managing public or office Wi-Fi access.

VLAN and Network Segmentation

Configure 802.1Q VLANs, bridge interfaces, and virtual Ethernet ports to segment networks exactly as you need. RouterOS handles complex VLAN tagging and untagging scenarios that most other software routers cannot.

API, Scripts and Automation

RouterOS has a built-in scripting language, a REST API, and RouterOS API access on port 8728/8729. Automate configuration changes, trigger alerts, and integrate your router into monitoring and management systems.

WinBox, WebFig and SSH Management

Manage your MikroTik VPS through WinBox (Windows GUI client), WebFig (browser-based interface accessible from any device), or standard SSH command line. All three management methods are available from day one.

Why Buy MikroTik VPS from TryRDP?

We have been running VPS infrastructure since 2018. Here is what makes our MikroTik VPS offering worth choosing.

Free MikroTik CHR License on Every Plan

CHR (Cloud Hosted Router) licenses normally cost money from MikroTik directly. Every TryRDP MikroTik VPS plan includes one free, activated CHR license. You do not need a MikroTik account or a separate purchase to get started.

KVM Virtualization, Not OpenVZ

Our VPS servers run on KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine), which gives each instance a fully isolated kernel. RouterOS CHR is designed for x86 KVM environments and performs correctly. OpenVZ-based VPS cannot run RouterOS properly.

SSD Storage on All Plans

All six plans use SSD storage. RouterOS itself is lightweight and boots in seconds, but SSD matters when your router logs, traffic captures and configuration backups are stored on the same volume.

99.9% Uptime SLA

Your MikroTik VPS runs in the same Tier III and IV certified datacenters we use for all TryRDP products. N+1 redundant power, monitored 24/7. A router that goes down is a serious problem. We take uptime seriously.

72-Hour Money-Back Guarantee

If the VPS does not work for your routing use case within 72 hours of ordering, contact support for a full refund. No questions asked, no partial credit policy.

24/7 Support from People Who Know Networking

Our support team includes staff with real network engineering backgrounds. If you have a question about RouterOS configuration, firewall rules or VPN setup on your TryRDP VPS, you will get an answer from someone who understands the product.

6 Datacenter Locations

USA, UK, Canada, Netherlands, France and Germany. Choose the location that gives your VPN clients, remote offices or customers the lowest latency. A geographically well-placed MikroTik VPS makes a meaningful difference to VPN performance.

Pay by Card, PayPal or Crypto

We accept credit and debit cards, PayPal, Bitcoin, Ethereum and USDT. Crypto payments process automatically without ID verification. Your MikroTik VPS is delivered within 2 hours of payment regardless of payment method.

MikroTik VPS: Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about RouterOS, CHR licensing, management tools and what you can build on a MikroTik VPS.

A MikroTik VPS is a KVM virtual private server running MikroTik RouterOS (CHR, Cloud Hosted Router). It works as a full software router hosted in a cloud datacenter. People use it for VPN servers (IPsec, L2TP, WireGuard, OpenVPN), advanced firewall setups, BGP and OSPF routing experiments, hotspot gateways for ISPs, bandwidth management, network segmentation with VLANs, and homelab networking. Because it runs in a datacenter, it stays on permanently and has a fixed IP address.

CHR stands for Cloud Hosted Router. It is MikroTik's version of RouterOS specifically built for virtual machines and cloud environments. The key differences compared to standard RouterOS are: CHR uses optimised x86 drivers for KVM and other hypervisors, it uses a different licensing scheme (paid by bandwidth tier in the retail version), and it is distributed as a disk image you boot rather than installing to hardware. TryRDP provides a free CHR license with every MikroTik VPS plan, which means you get full RouterOS functionality without purchasing a license separately from MikroTik.

Yes. Every TryRDP MikroTik VPS plan includes one free activated CHR license. You do not need to create a MikroTik account, purchase a license key, or enter any license information. When your VPS is delivered, RouterOS is already installed and licensed. The license is valid for as long as your VPS subscription is active.

RouterOS supports three management methods. WinBox is a free Windows desktop application you can download from the MikroTik website. It connects to your VPS IP address and gives you a graphical interface for all configuration. WebFig is the browser-based GUI built into RouterOS, accessible from any device at your VPS IP address via HTTP or HTTPS. SSH command line access is available using any standard SSH client if you prefer to manage via terminal. All three are available on every plan from day one.

Yes, and this is one of the most common use cases. RouterOS supports multiple VPN protocols: WireGuard (modern, fast, low overhead), IPsec with IKEv2 (standard for phone and laptop clients), L2TP/IPsec (widely compatible), SSTP (good for Windows clients), OpenVPN, and PPTP. You can set up a personal VPN, a site-to-site VPN between two offices, or a VPN for a remote team. The choice of datacenter location matters here. Choose the one closest to your clients for the best VPN performance.

MikroTik VPS is available in six locations: USA, UK, Canada, Netherlands, France and Germany. These are the same datacenter locations as our Linux VPS plans. The right location depends on where your VPN clients, remote offices or routing targets are. The Netherlands (Amsterdam) and Germany (Falkenstein) work well for European coverage. The USA plans (multiple cities) suit North American setups. UK suits anyone routing through London for low-latency European connectivity.

The six plans scale on CPU cores, RAM and SSD storage. Plan #1 (1 core, 2 GB RAM, $10/mo) is sufficient for a VPN server with a handful of concurrent connections and standard firewall rules. Plan #3 (3 cores, 6 GB RAM, $30/mo) handles a busier hotspot gateway or a routing setup with multiple tunnels. Plans #5 and #6 (6–8 cores, 16–32 GB RAM) suit ISPs or businesses running many concurrent VPN sessions, complex firewall rulesets, or traffic shaping for a large number of users. RouterOS itself is very efficient and runs well even on the entry plan for most personal use cases.

In most cases your VPS is delivered within 2 hours of payment confirmation. Your login credentials (IP address, username and password) are sent to your email automatically. In some cases it may take up to 12 hours. If you have not received your credentials after 12 hours, contact support and the team will check your order status.

Yes. Every MikroTik VPS comes with access to the Virtualizor control panel where you can open a VNC console directly to the VPS even if network access is not working. This lets you recover from misconfigured firewall rules or a forgotten admin password without losing your configuration.

We accept credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex), PayPal, Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT and other cryptocurrencies. Crypto payments process automatically without ID verification. All payments go through our client portal at my.tryrdp.com. A 72-hour money-back guarantee applies to all MikroTik VPS plans.
