Hi,

Our ISP gives us unlimited traffic from 00:00 to 06:00 AM, Is it possible to allow our coustmers to have off the record internet usage during that time? Or, is it possible to disable MikroTik accounting during that time?

Thank you in advance

Hi Damascene,

This is possible in various ways, it will depend basically on where you do your customers shaping (if simple queue or queue tree) and if this is automated by hotspot or ppp authentication (in case of simple queues).

Please, give more information so I can try to help you.

Cheers

Hi,
Thank you for responding, your help would be appreciated. I would like a user with account "user1" to have limited bandwidth in the morning (ex.. 500mb) and an no limit at night from 12:00 am to 06:00 am.

I understand that I can use queue to achieve that, am I right?

Regards

Queues are used to control speed limits but not how long or how much data can be used. For that you need hotspot user profiles.

Sorry but I think I misunderstood your question. I thought you would be interested on traffic shaping (like rate limit) and not traffic account (like bytes limit).

With queues you can achieve this: morning 1Mbps and night 100Mpbs (bandwidth). If that's your case I can give you some orientation.

Thank you for responding,

I just want to allow unlimited unquoted Internet usage at night. 12:00Am to 06:00AM, could anyone help me with that, please

you can enable and disable the queue rule of your user by a script and then use scheduler to run enable queue at 06:00 and the second one for disabling it at 00:00
