Hello everyone,

I’m facing an issue with my MikroTik Hotspot setup on RouterOS v7. Some of my hotspot users are being disconnected before their assigned expiration time (e.g., 1-day profiles).

Here’s what I’ve configured so far:

Idle Timeout: Set to none.
Keepalive Timeout: Tried various settings, including 10m and 1d.
Session Timeout: Set to 00:00:00 (disabled).
Uptime Limit: Set to the correct duration, such as 1d.
Despite this, users are still expiring prematurely. I’ve also ensured that the router’s time is accurate and synchronized via NTP.

Has anyone else encountered this problem on RouterOS v7? Any advice on what might be causing this or how to resolve it would be greatly appreciated!

When you update something, you have to read the changelogs, otherwise what do you expect?

Even if RouterOS, as it sometimes does, converts or adjusts the various parameters, it cannot be expected to also correct hand-written scripts...

If you had read all the changelogs of RouterOS v6.x.x that you were using up to version 7.17.2 you would know why it doesn't work for you.

Who wrote that abomination of a so long one-line-script?
Ask whoever created that abomination to patch it for RouterOS 7.17.2

Friend, I have this script in version 7 and so far it has worked wonderfully for me.
I hope it can help you:

do you have any script to help

Friend, I have this script in version 7 and so far it has worked wonderfully for me.
I hope it can help you:

Code: Select all

:local comment "IN USE"
:local userprofile [ip hotspot user get [find where name="$user"] profile]

:if ([/ip hotspot user get $user comment]="") do={[/ip hotspot user set $user comment=$comment]}

[/system scheduler 
add comment= [/ip hotspot user profile get [find where name="$userprofile"] name] name=$user on-event="/ip hotspot user remove \"$user\" \r\
  \n/ip hotspot active remove [find user=\"$user\"]\r\
  \n/system scheduler remove [find where name=\"$user\"] \r\
  \n\r\
" interval= [/ip hotspot user profile get [find where name="$userprofile"] session-timeout]]

let me try it out thank

Handling Missed Scheduler Events After Power Outage on RouterOS 7
I'm running into an issue with scheduler events on my MikroTik router. I have scheduled tasks—such as removing hotspot users at specific times—that are missed when the router is powered off (for example, during a power outage). When the router comes back online, those events are not automatically executed.
My Questions:
Is this a reliable method to catch and execute missed events after a power outage?
Are there any potential pitfalls with iterating over all scheduler events like this?
Can you suggest improvements or alternative approaches that might be more efficient or robust?
Any feedback or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi friend, check to see if it works for you,
PD; You can publish your script in version 6
