limit bandwidth on ubiquiti or mikrotik?

RouterOS General
1

i have limit on wireless networks on my unify controler. Is it better to put it unlimited and then queue that subnet on mikrotik?

I prefer to let my router perform routing functionality. Assuming you only use Ubiquiti as accesspoint(s), I would use queues. As you mention subnets…are you using VLAN’s (already)?

yeah, i am using vlan for guest wifi and private. So i just remove user groups and put unlimited to all networks and just queue it with router? Is some benefits or?

Bandwidth enforcement is quite CPU intensive, plus if you use queues whose root parent is not an interface queue, it is incompatible with fasttracking (fasttracking bypasses tree queues parented in global and simple queue). So if you have in mind the same router we discuss in the firewall thread, you might be unpleasantly surprised.
