I think 6 to 9dbi antennas would be fine for me and a lot of others. 6 to 12 inches isn't that tall. For outdoor use most people are using sectors. So I bet most of us would be using them indoors. for me I would use them out doors for short distance And I dont care if they have dual pol or not, a 6...
what ppp server do you want to disable and enable?? for pppoe server here is a script to find and disable acording to its name. you whould need 2 scripts one with enable=yes and the other disable=no and then set up a schedular to call out that script acording to your needs. { /interface pppoe-server...
on your ospf network. do you have 0.0.0.0/0 or do you have the specific subnet listed? it sounds to me like you have 0.0.0.0/0 and so it tries to run a ospf session on every single interface including your pppoe.
hello guys, I am having problem with a script that i modified to do what i need but for some reason it is not working exactly right. I tested it with one queue in a test enviroment and it worked excelent but when i put it on my main router with hundreds of users it runs untill it finds one user with...
actually if they say went to yahoo.com and the hotspot page popped up, after they hit the but to continue browsing it redirects them to yahoo.com they dont have to retype anything in.
For now i need somthing that can handle 300 customers and around 20mb. I am sure that if this does what we want then the cpu of the hardware is goint to come into to play as you scale. One thing that i was thinking is using traffic monitor and if say total bandwith usage is under 80% it keeps up wit...
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Limiting_a_user_to_a_given_amount_of_traffic_with_user_levels Check this. You can adapt it to manage different kinds of traffic (HTTP, FTP, P2P), with enough work. Just an example, tangent somehow to your request. I have a script I wrote almost identical to that except...
I doubt you will need anything from me since you are so smart an I am so dumb. Yeah I saw the other thread where you were giving out info on how to make a mk power controller. I happened to see it after I posted what I did because based on what I read here in this thread it was agrivating. I have wo...
hey there gunther. if you need any help or would like to throw some ideas around I would like to have to help you with it. You already have my email. I am the guy that recently was added to your facebook from honduras. adrian is just being an @$$hole. If he has a solution and dont wont to share it o...
A very very simple way of doing this. maybe not the best and maybe you dont have your network setup in a way that this could be used is. set up hotspot on the router that they are connected to and then edit the page for it to be a reminder with no where to put a password or username but leave the cl...
hello i have a config that i need help with, not sure if it is even possible to do but here goes. my service provider is giving me 7 MB of bandwith but is doing so with 2 different vlans, he gives me the service over cat5 but when i configure the MT i have to configure two different vlans to get the...
with a 25 dbi basket and a r52 at 14dbi output power at 54mb i get 54mb rate lock on 5.8hgz at 15km with -68 signal and real transfer rate of 30MB ping of 1-2 ms
i think i would use the rb1000 as a radius server if you arnt using somthing different for that and run ppoe servers on each ap that auth to the rb1000, routing will be running on all aps and you can use rip or ospf to make it simpler. just my 10cents
to be honest with you , i am not sure but i am sure google can find plenty of tuturials on it for you. i can give an example but if you dont understand you wont be able to do it. exp you have ether1 as wan on public ip you have ether 2 as lan with a 192.168.3.0/24 you have hotpot set up and running ...
if you route over your ap then you still will have the hotspot page come up for every user. if you route and also use nat on your ap then your assumption is correct that every user will have free acces after first user logs on. read up on how to route.
you can add subnets to the same eth interface as the 192.168.88.0/24. you can make the whole subnet larger example a 16 bit subnet or maybe even just a 23 or 22 bit subnet. or you can route over your ap, the better option, in my opinion
hello all thanks for the help, i am now in honduras and have found that this xr5 will also make 2 other rb192 ´s reboot. i changed out the xr5 on my rb493ah with a r5h and no more rebooting problem , i also tried using the power plugged dirrectly into the rb and still rebooted with the xr5! So i ass...
hmm i thought that there was no sensative info in there. anyways hope none of my cleints are here reading this , haha they would have free internet wouldnt they.
hello i have 493 in place and have no problem like you exsplain. see my setting below only I did change the interface names the #9 is WAN named ether1 before and #8 was before Ether2 ect. /interface ethernet set 0 arp=enabled auto-negotiation=yes comment="" disabled=no full-duplex=yes \ ma...
I did disable watchdog and it did not help, no i dont have another xr5 to try but i did buy a couple of r5h's and r52h and a few rb192's , i am going to honduras next week to work on this problem myself to try and get this link up and running , hope all goes well.
ok i uninstalled the rb today (well had installer remove it) it does not reeboot if the xr5 is disabled or removed. we changed the xr5 to a different slot , no difference, we upgraded to 3.22 made no difference, we set power on xr5 to 18db no difference, set tx power to default, no difference, chang...
hello i have installed 2 rb493ah already and when i got the third one on its tower i started having a reebooting issue with it , i had tested everthing already on the bench here in the usa but now my installer is having issues in honduras. here is the setup tower 1 has a 24 dbi roo with rb493 and r5...
here is a script that i wrote to use with usermanager and it runs on V 3.6 and below to set bandwith speeds , apart from this script you need a couple more to make it work, but you will get the idea. you need to set the comment to bandwith used total to began with. you also need to do that every tim...
that is because you are giving them 10 hrs and it starts from the second they first log on , use uptime limit instead and set your credit to 1 month and all should be good for multiple uses totaling 10hrs and exspires in 1 month.
this is the last update that i have working and will actually log the cleint off the internet if they go over the limit. it also does not rely on the counters being reset daily it does however rely on a different script that set thes comment to MB total used once a day. { :local userX :local bytesin...
i agree MT please respond to this. It is not correct for someone to change the way the damn script works and not tell the people that are writing them . i have spent numeros hours debugging stuff that used to work fine on previous versions . && is completly broken in 3.4 and a host of other ...
here is my lastest script and it works well only you have to run one other script to set the speed on users that have never been online or havnt been online since you reset counters. it is below the one that applies FAP { :local user :local bytesin :local bytesout :local megstotal :local groupname :...
ok here is what i have working so far , it is not the complete script as I am just working with users B at the moment to make like easier but it works like a charm as long as it never finds a user that has just had his counters reset and i need to be able to reset counters every day, might have trye...
ok i have been playing around with this for the last 6 hours and i think i am getting a little bit closer , i had to make a few changes to get it to at least run but here is what i have so far that actually works although it only sets the cleints speeds according to what group they are A,B or C if i...
yes this script is made so that you can have 3 different classes of users A,B,C and set there speeds to certain levals according to how much they have downloaded. it works with usermanager. it is not like the one from kridge that is a billing script this is like a FAP (fair acces policy) we run this...
i am still hoping that someone can help me out with this. there is no info in the documents on scripting in the new version. please someone help us see the error we have.
i tried what you suggested and still no luck runs but does nothing
thanks
michael
ps. i have another script that changes the queues in queue tree at midnight and it no longer will work either. what changed in v 3 so that the scripts no longer run correctly?
hello guys still no luck with this script does anybody know where to find documentation on scripting with version 3.0? i cant seem to find it and this is driving me crazy becase it runs just fine no errores but dont do nothing.
hello i have been using below script for last few months with 3.0 beta and now that i am using 3.2 it will not work. any help appreciated. { :local user :local bytesin :local bytesout :local megstotal :local groupname /tool user-manager user :foreach i in=[/tool user-manager user find subscriber=adm...
hello , runs without problem but still same issue , nothing happens, if it would just say what the error was it would be easier to figure out, but ir runs like a charm , just does nothing.
dont think it is a bios update issue . i have tried 2 differnt pc's with same motherboard same bios setting, and one says that cant find disk and other says can. also i have installed with CD on one pc and works another with ftp and works and then on another computer niether cd nor ftp work.. i have...
i have the above setup running on 3.0vr6 and it works well. it does save msn download for me.. really cool. i have tried with up to a 24mb file and worked fine, cant figure out how to make it save youtube tho. i have it running on 6 servers at the moment for up to 3 weeks on the very first one and h...
hello again friend, i am still trying to get it to log off active users. I made the mod that you sujest and i dont get any errors but it also does not log user off { :local user :local address :local uptime /ip hotspot active :foreach i in=[/ip hotspot active] do={ :set user [get $i name] :set addre...
glad to hear that it worked for you. Like I said that i had not tried to use it. I only wrote it and give you an idea.. The first time that i tried to write a script and someone gave me a idea and it took me a lot longer than 6 hours.. nearly 2 day to figure it out . but after that you are much more...
hello , i wrote this on the fly and have not tested it. please let me know if it works for you! { :local conn :local p2p :local src /ip firewall connection :foreach i in=[/ip firewall connection find] do={ :set conn [get $i tcp-state] :set p2p [get $i p2p] :set src [get $i src-address] :if (([$conn]...
why dont you just use mangle and firewall filter? something like / ip firewall mange add action=add-dst-to-address-list address-list=p2p address-list-timeout=0s chain=forward \ comment="" disabled=no p2p=all-p2p add action=mark-connection chain=forward comment="" disabled=no new-...

hello , thanks for all the help. below is my latest config and works with ABC profiles and sets bandwith acordingly. might be somthing for the WIKI!!!!!!!!! it is testing and working on a operational system with cleints running right now.. i have it run every 4 hours.. i really never understood scri...
i found a bug in the below script and a way to fix it but maybe there is a different way . if the total bandwith used is =0 then it sets them to the restricted bandwith. :local bytesin :local bytesout :local megstotal /tool user-manager user :foreach i in=[/tool user-manager user find subscriber=adm...
i have tried and tried to get somthing to make the users log out but it just isnt hapening ,, below are some of the things i have tried ip hotspot active remove 0 /ip hotspot active remove 1 /ip hotspot active remove 2 /ip hotspot active remove 3 /ip hotspot active remove 4 /ip hotspot active remove...
ok we are making progress .. i figured out how to reset only the users data that is getting changed to a lower rate during the scipting proces and i will make another one that will reset everybodys usage once a day.. i tried to also make them log out but i was not able to do that ,, below is what i ...
what version of mikrotik are you using and what proxy package? you need to make two scripts one call :parent proxy on and the other parent proxy off it would be something like this to set it to use parent proxy / ip proxy set parent-proxy=10.10.10.10:3128 / and this to make it not use parent proxy /...
thanks very much for your help.. what i do not understand is the reset part of the script or is that a totally differnt script? also i would like to figure out how to make the script to look for $user under ip hotspot active user and log them off if they have used more bandwith than the set limit .....
this is how i have it now and it runs perfectly { :local user :local bytesin :local bytesout :local megstotal /tool user-manager user :foreach i in=[/tool user-manager user find subscriber=admin] do={ :set user [get $i name] :set bytesin [get $i download-used] :set bytesout [get $i upload-used] :set...
works correctly in 3.0rc5,, havnt figured it out yet in the stable version thanks... is there any way that i can make it take a look at the speed that the customer has right now and set the speed to half that and then reset itself at midnight.. as we have several different packages... or say find ra...

hello , i am trying to figure out how to keep one of the simple queues in #0 place.. i am using hotspot and and userman on version 3.0rc5 and have a queue for proxy trafic as explained in the other forum.. the only problem is that the simple queue rule will have to stay on top of all others and when...
hello i am trying to prioritize my trafic using mangle and queue tree. It worked fine until i enabled the web proxy. below are my setting. I have tried everthing i can think of and it marks part of the connections but others no. / ip firewall mangle add chain=forward action=add-dst-to-address-list p...
i talked with a friend and he pointed me to the fact that the 8186's even in bridge mode still transmit there mac adress as part of the packets. the solution to this was running them in WDS mode and that way what ever is connected to them remotely can be seen not only by IP address but aslo my Mac a...
ok i figured one thing out . the mac addres i am seeing is from the wireless acces point that feeds the swich that the pc is connected to. here is the setup mikrotik router handing out dhcp and running hotspot. goes to tower 8186 maxx set as bridge and AP (should be transparant) the cleint is a 8186...
hello i have a problem on our network with 1 computer trying to use a lot of Ip's. we are running ip hotspot and in the host list i see the same mac address a bunch of times. I have set the hotspot server to only allow 2 Ip's per mac address and when this cleint connects to the internet it logs her ...
hello thanks guys , but the problem that i have is that i am using dual wan and when i put that rule into with my other filter rules it makes my gateways thinjk that they are down and disables them here is how i have the gateways configured.

I have my filter enabled and i am seeing that the traffic is going to both wan's. But if I add my other mangle rules and try to do Queue tree it goes to pieces on me. I changed the ...
hello is there anybody online now that can let me know if there is a way to run hotspot and dual wan at the same time. i have set it up like it shows in the wiki but when i turn on hotspot i get into trouble. I have more mangle rules and filters setup too. If there is any body that would like to log...
here is what i am doing i have a server running 2.9.42 we are running hotspot and userman. every time a client logs in they get a set bandwith thru simple queues, but i would like to give priority to http and voip and https. i am doing that thru mangle and Queue tree. is that correct? does the traff...
i too have been trying to figure mikrotik out and have spent at least 80 hours reading forums , doc's and the wiki. I have posted questions also and have recieved some responses.
