Limiting Data Usage On Syrotech ONU

Also remember Mac based restriction won't work well. Modern OS randomize Mac address.

this model was launched in India

As far i know mi router mini was not launched in India, they didn't launch any dual band model yet in India.

@opomiyulen My bad, I thought I purchased on Mi India store, I just found I placed the order on Ali Express in 2015.

@Kamei That’s to control bandwidth and if your requirement is to control data you may have to explore options suggested by @shashankb. I am using bandwidth control by assigning less speed, in turn it is helping in controlling data.

@Sushubh What are you running on? The Archer C6 has a Flash size(Hard Disk) of 8MB. It gets installed but you are left with less room.

 

[Sushubh]

Ah. This is on erx.

Yeah India needs better routers. which don't burn a hole in consumers pocket by Import duties

 

[Sushubh]

Erx is I believe on sale in India through some distributors but it's a very old model now to be considered for buying these days.

@Kamei you could turn on MAC Whitelisting so that only authorized MAC addresses are allowed to access internet, then you can ask everyone to turn of mac randomization lol

A radius server with username and password based log in. WPA2 enterprise for everyone. Usernames don’t change, even if session ids, session times, etc change.

SNMP and VLAN Are your friends here. If you don’t expect to add users constantly set static VLANs for usernames with data rate limiting. You’d need Ubiquiti if you want the easy way out.
