It seems there is a lack of a feature that provides a decent graph for WAN traffic usage by month like to what DD-WRT offers. While advanced users can achieve this by using the SNMP protocol and integrating third-party solutions like Grafana and Prometheus, this method is often too complex for the average home user.
Given that MikroTik is targeting home users and releasing devices tailored to their needs, I believe it’s important to consider that these users might require built-in, user-friendly features to monitor their monthly bandwidth cap. The current IP/Kid Control features are helpful but do not offer the comprehensive and visually appealing traffic monitoring that many users desire. Integrating a feature that delivers clear, monthly WAN traffic graphs directly within the MikroTik interface would greatly enhance the user experience, making network management more accessible and effective for home users.
