dears,
Can any one help me about to make authentication (user name & pass) in dhcp server.
i mean that if any dhcp user wish to use internet then he/she may have to authenticated by username and pass also.
We can use PPPOE but i need to make authentication in DHCP mode.
so if anybody help to ab this then i will be so gratefull to him.her.
It’s so urgent …plz HELP me
regards…
yes,
i think DHCP-Hotspot will help, cos with it module you can easy to make control them.
mikrotik's module more friendly... 
hotspot uses a lot of cpu power. we are using it to authticate now, every time a client log in, cpu hits 100% since hotspot has to add a queue and etc..
then cpu usage comes down to normal around 10%. machine is a p4 2133freq. with 200 users.
we are wanting to move away from this setup. we would like to keep the login name/ password setup. but not so many queus.
Have not found a solution yet
you can use user manager or RADIUS to assign speed limitations, keeping user database off the router will help.

hotspot is very easy, just click on hotspot “SETUP” in winbox.
The other option is to use a single sharing queue rather than assigning a per user queue.
This depends on what the usage habits are like thou as it will allow a faster connection for the most part, but is more open to people abusing the speed.
We had approx 300 users on 2 different locations, 1 with a slower connection 1 faster.. the faster 1 was often maxing 100% cpu and changing it to the single queue helped a fair bit.
Use PCQ,

but you have to configure queue manually on the router, it is not possible to make PCQ queue in automatic way.
