HOTSPOT TRAFFIC

Fri May 15, 2020 4:58 pm

Good Day
I have recently started using the hotspot, but after monitoring the usage and comparing it to the usage from my ISP it does not add up.
It seems to me that some of the traffic from users are not picked up or counted by the hotspot.
How do I correct this?
Thanks

Disable fast track in firewall rules. It's around rule 25.

Hi thanks
I don't have rules like that under my firewall rules?

Drag rule 2 to be below the hotspot rules.

I will have to monitor it, like I said it only counts the usage partially.
Thank you for the help.
I will post an update when I see difference

I have a problem regarding this method, you see I have scripts in place to switch my hotspot on and off at certain times as my isp gives a night time data that I want open to everyone.
It seems like Rule 2 that I moved, moves back with the restart, any way around this?

So I was able to create a script and schedule it for when the hotspot starts up.
Seems like the counting of usage is working much more accurate after moving that rule.
Thanks
