HotSpot and queue tree

RouterOS General
1

Hi all


I setup a simple hotspot, all web page allow, free to sign in and not bandwidth restriction, but I try to control the bandwidth with queue tree last example in the manual but don’t work I think that in mangle option I have to chose another chain like hotspot chain but this chain only appear when I config a bandwidth in the userprofile in hotspot and I have been tried but don’t work, any suggestion :slight_smile:

thanks and best regards

I use the hotspot dynamic queue by assigning bandwidth restrictions in
/ip hotspot user profile
set 0 rate-limit=“256K/1M”

This is 256K upload 1 Meg download from the client perspective. Then log in and and take a look at
/queue simple
Your user name with “” appended should be there with the correct restrictions.

Yes, but what if I have 1mb total bandwitdth and 2 user so first user is downloading something to 1mb and the second user try to download something too this second one can’t download because the queue to first user is guarantee 1mb right?



with queue tree you can give 500k per user, so can I use this in hotspot?


Thanks !!!

The queues do not guarantee a minimum bandwidth. It restricts maximum bandwidth only. Each client will be restricted to 1m download. If there is not enough bandwidth on the wan interface, all clients will suffer.
