But in architecture & board name you will still find x86 written which is normal for this version & thus we have Mikrotik 64 bit RouterOS ready. Voila! You now have 24 GiG of RAM as well as 8 Core as mentioned before.

Now Check your System -> Resources tab.

Check the “Allow x86-64” check box & Reboot the router.

Now your mikrotik is licensed with Level 1.

Copy everything as shown & paste it in winbox – “Paste Key” under System -> License.

Now from your winbox, System -> License copy the Software ID and paste in the text box under “make a demo key”.

Create and account on Login to your account.

For this demo I will register for a demo license (Level 1) from mikrotik.

After reboot see the license dialog box will open.

Now, depending on your HDD Size it will take some time to format.

When asked for packages, press ‘a’ then press ‘i’.

Burn the iso image to a CD and boot from it.

In maximum cases ROS doesn’t detect SATA HDD. If HDD is mode is mismatched then installation may not continue.

Make sure your hardware is ready, HDD mode set to IDE in your BIOS.

My PC Spec’s for Mikrotik 64 bit RouterOS installation:

So, I started some R & D’s with the ROS & stuff and came to a conclusion that yes that same x86 iso which we download from the mikrotik website is 100% compatible with 64bit version and can use >2 GiG RAM & I tested with 24 GiG.

But in reality it never happened and Mikrotik people can’t even say if it’s gonna happen or not. While some were happy with CHR others were still looking forwards for Mikrotik 64 bit RouterOS from Mikrotik as it’s more reliable and pretty straightforward. We were always wondering when Mikrotik will release a 圆4 version for our 64 bit PCs which can support more than 2 GiG RAMs.But unfortunately mikrotik trashed the plan for Mikrotik 64 bit RouterOS & eventually released their CHR Series for Virtual Machines.

Had been super busy with my new ventures & consulting. Okay, so I’m posting this article on Mikrotik 64 bit RouterOS say after almost a year.
