Is there a URL that users can go to where they can see how much data / time they have used and how much they have remaining? I'm using v5.16.

If there is no URL, then are there some server variables I can use to display that information on the Hotspot status page?

thanks,

Gareth

Okay, so I've discovered that users are supposed to be able to login and check their usage here, http://[my-router-ip]/user, but it doesn't work... it just says "invalid username or password" when I try it.

Thoughts anyone? Am I doing something wrong? I've tried doing this with v4 and v5, but the result is always the same...

are they using Hotspot? Please clarify your setup in more detail

Yes, users login via hotspot.

Hotspot IP is 172.23.0.254 and it uses the user manager on router IP 10.1.1.10 as its radius server. User "gareth" is set up as a user at 10.1.1.10/userman


So, if I login as user "gareth" at 172.23.0.254/login and I proceed to 10.1.1.10/user and try to login, then I get the following error message:



I have the same problem when i use usermanager v5

There is no such page /login.

Please use correct URL link to get User Manager user page,
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/User_Manager/User_page

There is no such page /login.

Yes there is - it's on the hotspot. User first logs on to the Hotspot at 172.23.0.254/login and then tries to login to the user manager at 10.1.1.10/user, as described in the link you posted.

Have you tried to open correct user page?

http://Router_IP_address/user?subs=publicID

Yes, the url I tried was http://10.1.1.10/user?subs=subscribers, where "subscribers" is the public id of the user's owner (customer)

Okay, so I've managed to get this working (sort of...) in the v5 user manager that I'm testing with.

I have my customers set up like this:


... and my user was set up like this:


With this setup, if I went to http://10.1.1.10/user?subs=subscribers and tried to login as user "gareth", it would say invalid "username or password".


However, if I change the user's owner to admin, like this:


... and I go to http://10.1.1.10/user?subs=admin, then I can login as user "gareth" , which is at least better than nothing I suppose , but I really need to keep users separated under the three different customer profiles. So why is this happening and how can i fix it???

Your help would really be appreciated!

Okay, so maybe the problem is that the "vouchers", "subscribers" and "holidaymakers" customers need to have owner permissions, because only a customer with owner permissions can be a subscriber. So based on this premise, I cleared the database and added all three as owners via the terminal e.g. ... but after I did this, I ran into major problems when creating profiles and limitations.

e.g.
- user manager seems to randomly assign ownership of profiles to the wrong subscribers
- limitations are not added correctly to profiles; I tried adding three limitations to a newly created profile, but it only added two. No amount of deleting and recreating the limitations and profiles would fix the problem.

I assumed that the database had become corrupted, so I exported it to a file (via the terminal), cleared the database and recreated it (via the terminal). The result of this operation, was that all the profiles I had created under the "vouchers" subscriber were added to "admin" and I could not add them to any new users I tried to create using the "vouchers" subscriber.

I think that all in all, I've cleared and recreated the user manager database from scratch about 15 times since yesterday.

... PLEASE HELP

I've spent two weeks trying to get User Manager set up correctly, but it is by far the most buggy piece of ill-documented software (e.g. 1, 2, 3, 4) I have ever come across. I am satisfied that I know how to set up Profiles, Limitations and Users correctly in v5 (when there is only 1 owner), but how on Earth do I create users that belong to one of 3 different subscribers and still allow them to login and check their usage, by clicking on links like this?

http://10.1.1.10/user?subs=subscribers
http://10.1.1.10/user?subs=vouchers
http://10.1.1.10/user?subs=holidaymakers

I have hotspot setup properly and working fine on ver6.2, I aneed hotspot user to be able to check thier usage and data balance, please how do I achieve this? can someone point me in the right direction please?
