Hi i need help with setting up bandwidth & queue.
My router is 433uah L5 licence
my firewall & basics are already setup & hotspots and working fine

I just need help in setting the up & down speeds for each client on hotspot as im confuse with all the different limit options

eg: under hotspot there's limit control, under wireless there's limit control, under hotspot queue also etc....

I just want to limit for example like adsl internet a client on hotspot to the max 128k up / 384k down speed

and limit downloads under queue settings

Hi Bongo
Take a look at http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/User_Mana ... ot_Example
It will help you.

The hotspots profile option is a max speed for that hotspot while the user profile option is for each user that logs in.

A rate of 1M/0 would give each user that logged in 1M upload speed and unlimited download speed.

From the wiki: http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:IP ... er_Profile

"Rate-limitation is configured in the following form [rx-rate[/tx-rate] [rx-burst-rate[/tx-burst-rate] [rx-burst-threshold[/tx-burst-threshold] [rx-burst-time[/tx-burst-time] [priority] [rx-rate-min[/tx-rate-min]]]]. For example, to set 1M download, 512k upload for the client, rate-limit=512k/1M"

Thanks but im still abit confuse...below is my details of hotspot if can just tell me where to make changes eg: 128k up/384k down 192k up/512k down
to limit clients to a fix upload & download rate

HOTPOT SERVER PROFILE:
name="hsprof1" hotspot-address=172.16.69.1 dns-name="www.hotspot.com"
html-directory=Default hotspot rate-limit="128k/384k"
http-proxy=0.0.0.0:8080 smtp-server=0.0.0.0
login-by=cookie,http-chap,http-pap http-cookie-lifetime=3d
split-user-domain=no use-radius=no

HOTPOT USER PROFILES:
0 * name="default" address-pool=(unknown) idle-timeout=5m
status-autorefresh=1m shared-users=unlimited rate-limit="128k/384k"
incoming-filter=none outgoing-filter=none on-login=Connected...!
on-logout=Disconnected...! transparent-proxy=no

if can just tell me where to make changes

In the hotspot user profile.

im running a 4MB unshaped dsl line, but my isp has restrictions for example 1st & 2nd priority....meaning if im using torrent i get full speed unshaped but the rest on my network get 50% of the actual line speed thats why i want to set everything evenly.....

my hotspot clients i just want to give internet access with low download rate and fast upload

HOTPOT SERVER PROFILE:

name="hsprof1" hotspot-address=172.16.69.1 dns-name="www.hotspot.com"
html-directory=Default hotspot rate-limit="128k/384k"
http-proxy=0.0.0.0:8080 smtp-server=0.0.0.0
login-by=cookie,http-chap,http-pap http-cookie-lifetime=3d
split-user-domain=no use-radius=no

The settings i mark red will limit your entire bandwidth to 128k/384k, if your intention is for single user, remove that and leave it blank for unlimited.

HOTPOT USER PROFILES:
0 * name="default" address-pool=(unknown) idle-timeout=5m
status-autorefresh=1m shared-users=unlimited rate-limit="128k/384k"
incoming-filter=none outgoing-filter=none on-login=Connected...!
on-logout=Disconnected...! transparent-proxy=no

The red need attention! default should be the profile name, share user should be = 1, rate limit is ok but means not burstable. when creating the, specify the profile name in the group.

just use usermanager with your hotspot.

it will solve all your problems


thanks and regards
