trial time / mac spoof

RouterOS Beginner Basics
1

Hi,

I was on an airport this week and really needed the internet.
I wanted to buy access and noticed that after registration but BEFORE payment my gtalk signed on :slight_smile:
It ended up to open some trial time to be able to make the payment, very bad implementation in my opinion, but ok.
I didn’t need internet that long so spoofed my mac a few times and i could do what I needed to do without paying.

Now comes my question, spoofing mac is easy, we all know that.
Is there some kind of logging / notify available on MT when trial time is used?
This way we could at least disable it on the particular device if we see it’s being abused for days.

Many thx.

it is necessary to know the details of logging by isp of airport

Yes, it’s possible to run scripts on user login and logout.

Read about ‘on-login’ and ‘on-logout’ properties.

HTH,

I meant on our own hotspots, not the one I was using.
I just won’t like people doing this for days on our hotspots without me getting notified.

kind regards

Ok nice, I will look into it.
So I guess it’s possible to only do this when trial is used?
I don’t want to receive a notification on each normal login too :slight_smile:

kind regards

The up and down scripts are attached to user profiles. So as long as you only specify scripts on the profile attached to trial users, and don’t use the same profile for other purposes, the script would only run for trial users.

Ok, after reading the docs about it I figured this out too, thx m8.
Just a simple script sending us an e-mail on trial login should do the trick.

Kind regards
