This. Also, make sure the proxy is proxying websocket traffic as well. I do it with pure nginx like this:
server {
listen 80;
server_name example.com;
location / {
proxy_pass http://192.168.1.100:8123/;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
# WebSocket support
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
}
}
How recent is your experience with Mikrotik? How old is the hardware you tried out?
