Hotspot users

Mon Aug 11, 2014 4:37 pm

Hi

Was wondering if there was a way to dynamically create hotspot users, preferably using their own mac address? As it is now, all users use the same user called "user".

All I could find was this: http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=28990

Thanks

Edit: To be more specific, it's for a public wifi installation. So we need a way to differentiate between different users connected. Currently everyone looks like this: Image

Doing it with mac-addresses would be ideal

From what I can understand from reading the wiki, won't that allow users to use the wifi without logging in for the duration of the 2 hour session time we allocate for users? (set in user profiles)

"trial - client is allowed to use internet without HotSpot login for the specified amount of time"
