Hey Guys Hoping someone can help me with this. I have a customer that would like to allow their users 40GB of data to use per month. If they go over this allowance they can purchase another datablock (by adding another profile to the user) At the end of the month they would like all datablocks to ex...
I'm very disappointed with user manager. The latest version is very buggy. When i create a new user with a profile that has an uptime limit it displays in the main interface as an unlimited account. Once I add another user it updates to the correct display. Is anyone else having this issue. I'm find...
Hey All Just wondering what you guys are using for outdoor enclosures. We are using Alix boards with Router OS and currently using these enclosures. http://www.mini-box.com/WRAP-BOX-4A2E_2 We are finding the seals fail on the ethernet assembly and the pins corrode killing the unit. We are looking at...
Hey Guys, I currently look after about 30 hotspots running user manager in different states with different time zones. We are now wanting to centralise the usermanager. Currently on the 30 usermanagers we run a script at midnight which sets the users transfer limits, and resets their counters :forea...
Hey Guys, Just wondering what radius software you are using to manage wireless hotspots. Im looking at radius manager and waiting to get a trial version.
Are most of you using usermanager or freeradius with some sort of front end
Cheers

Hey Guys, I have some questions in regards to the user manager and how you are using it. We currently look after a chain of caravan parks all owned by the same company. Currently each site has their own hotspot / user manager and the local parks maintain the users. We are looking at using a central ...

Hi Guys
I setup a test environment inside today between two alix outdoor aps. It seems the 4.3 Nsteam is really buggy. If i enable nstreme and setup the bandwidth test between two end points the link is up and down every 30 seconds. Remove nstreme and it is stable.
Hey Guys
Just wondering if any of you have had issues with 3g and routeros. I have a supported usb modem but find it drops out and fails to re establish. I get errors in my logs with cant detect serial. Or it just continually loops connecting. Singal is -69. Any ideas
Cheers
Hey Guys I have an Alix board with a HUAWEI E1762 Connected via the usb port I have created a ppp connection and it works great. The only issue is every 12 hours or so it seems as though the modem locks up and the internet drops out. A simple removal of the modem and plug back in and away it goes. I...
Hi Guys We are having some issues with the hotspot. Im running 3.14 at most sites. The issue we are having looks to be dns related. Unless we have a static entry in dns for the hotspot users don't see the login page. The problem is every now and then this static entry disapears and then users can't ...
We have just come across the exact same issue using a wyse terminal with windows xp embedded. Hotspot resolves through dns lookup but fails in the browser. A simple host entry fixes the problem. What worries me is all the road warriors that may have this issue without us knowing about it.
Hi There. Im currently having a problem with spam. We have a spam filter which is removing the spam but we recieve alot of spam from about 100 external ip addresses. We recieve a small amount of legit email so im wondering if anyone has any scripts that will add IP addresses to a address list if the...
Hi Can anyone tell me if there is a way to setup proxy ghosting with hotspot. I would like my hotspot setup so if clients have any type of proxy set in their browsers due to group policies etc, the hotspot will still allow them out to the internet with the need to reconfigure the clients browser Che...
Take 2; the script above will actually delete unlimited accounts if they have never been logged into.. ### This Script removes stale Accounts if they are out of credit and haven't been seen for a month or if they have an unlimited account and havent been seen for a month :local varDate :local varMon...
Hey Fosben Thanks so much for your help, With your guidance i have come up with this script. This script removes users if they are out of credit and haven't been seen for a month. NOTE Ensure the date is set correctly on routeros before using. Also it will remove unlimited accounts if they haven't b...
Hey Guys I have another curly one. Being new to the product i dont really know what im doing but would like some direction. Basically we are using hotspot with usermanger and we have a script that sets the transfer limit to 300mb. We then have a reset-counters script that runs at midnight, so basica...
Hey Guys i need some help with making a script that removes old users from user manager. so far i have the following system scheduler add name="Remove Users out of Credit" interval=168:00:00 on-event="/tool user-manager remove [tool user-manager user find credit-left=0]" The issu...
Hey Guys / Sam
Looks like you have answered my questions. Thanks for the great info. I will be sticking with dyndns until my hosting services run out and then i will move on to changeip
Cheers for the info
Is it true that Mikrotik doesnt support dyndns. If this is the case im truly shocked. Yes i have read about change IP. But seriously do you see any other commercial products that have support for change ip. Before coming here i have never heard of changeip and frankly not interested in using their s...
Hi Guys im after a bit of help with port forwarding. I have a dsl connection connected to router os via pppoe and using hotspot and i have also setup a firewall on router os. Basically i have created a port forward following this guide http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Forwarding_a_port_to_an_internal_I...
Thanks for that Info. For 150 metres to 250 metres what DB strength in 5.8ghz directional antennas would you suggest. As using the omnis i have found ( by using the scanning technique ) that the wireless networks cant see each other so i have decided to take your advice with directional antennas but...
Thanks for the reply. So you are saying 5.5 db omnis will be fine for a backhaul using 70mw cards. The last thing is how do you check that the access points can see each other. I have played around with the alignment tool but havent had much luck. Sorry for the silly questions but im new with mikrot...
Will 5.5 Omni antennas make the distance based on the 400mw cards.
Also how do you test if they are making the distance and that there is a good signal strength
