How do you do PPPOE if the client does not have a router and just a PC or laptop I cant remember if windows or mac allows for this?
Do you have to add 3rd party software?
 
Thanks

I use it for bandwidth �monitoring� and it checks by IP address.  As for throttling, the answer is yes.  I know it can throttle by IP and subnet, but I�m not sure about the Mac.  You do it through the use of queues.  Some of the guys on the list use PPOE, which allows for throttling by user.  If you do queues, you either create a big queue, in which everyone shares that bandwidth, or individual queues for each ip.  A pain, but it works.  I think the preferred method is through PPOE.  I know there are some guys doing this.  Ask Eje for details or check the Mikrotik list.

Is anyone using these for bandwidth throttling?

 

If so, how well does it work with say 200 users?

 

Also how does it throttle, (based on ip, mac address, entire subnet, entire ap)?

 

Thanks for the information,
