Tell 'em to keep their MikroTik that they got from you, and buy a Circle to add 
onto their network.

Customer has a leased Mikrotik.  I don’t think they will be able to handle 
managing a Mikrotik, and I don’t want us making changes multiple times each day 
so their kids do their homework.  I told customer to shop for a router that can 
do what they want, and we would take back the leased router.

I still think sticking their head in the room has some value.

Look at router limits. They have a few options to do exactly what you are 
looking for.

Seriously?

What happened to sticking your head in the room and yelling “get off the damn 
Internet and do your homework”?  Are parents too lazy now to get up off the 
sofa and check on the kids?  When I was a kid, a parent could yell from 50 
paces and make you soil your underwear.
