hi!
I have just set up my hotspot gateway with MT router OS version 2.8.26
Evry things work very well.
But when i tried to create users for prepaid card ... problems begun!!
Indeed i noticed that the only way to create users is just to create them one by one !!!!! incredible!!!
Iam sure i have missed some think in users configurations for hostpot.

i so tried to see if scripts can solve this problem ; there i found that :first is not so easy to work with string to create users like "user$i" where $i is from 1 to 100.

second it seems like there in no random function in script to generate for each user an random password.

I sure i have missed some thing

could you give me ideas abouit this topic please is quite urgent
any help would be realy appreciated

instead of ... specify all other necessary parameters.
No, there aren't random number generation in scripts. But you can use some formula including $i value to generate such number.

We will think about adding "random" feature in v2.9.

Thank you for help the small script does the job.
Really good idea for next versions that is the random feature.
But it is not enough ... Why not thnk about a kind of simple HotSpot business configurator like Alepo RBS billing system i dont think that will be hard for you to implement in RouterOS lets say a 2.9 HV (HotSopt Version) . Including a very important feature like billing handler and report. Dont forget to implement a way to export more easyly the users list with all necessary details like Uptime; limit time for printing on prepaid card for instance...

Why not to use MT HotSpot manager?

Because its not integrated to the soft; i mean something local for standalone system like Nomadix all in one box hostpot gateway. Router OS is more features enhanced and more more power full than nomadix product believe me. It needs to full fill all the range of existing features in this domain i think.
