in v2.9.28 we will have this feature - the user will be able to login using his hotspot username to the usermanager and check the status of his activities and also change the password... We will update soon the manual how to do that. You should modify the status.html file and you will get a button that will open the usermanger page for the hotspot users.
如果你只有一个userm客户帐户anger then the hotspot user can open the pagehttp://userman/user

Hi Uldis,

Your last post is just about what we need here.
Usermanager works perfectly for us to know what we need about our customers.
But the feature giving web access to each customer about its own traffic would be just GREAT..
Is there any detailed explanation about how to do this modification in the status. html file?
Best Regards

How long, Oh Lord?

According to Wiki a user ought to be able to access 'his' page by entering http://router_ip_address/user?subs=publicID, and where there is only one subscriber this becomes http://router_ip_address/user, but I'm damned if I can make it work. All I can get is a 404 page not found report.

Might this be because I'm not also using Hotspot with User-Manager, because I don't need Hotspot?

If so it would be useful of this client-viewing-own-use feature could be included in User-Manager as a self-contained feature.

user manager only manages ppp or hotspot users. you can't use user-manager if you don't use hotspot. what `users` do you want to manage then? what do you understand with the word `user`? an IP address?

SweetSunday, User Manager is not required for you without HotSpot, PPP, DHCP.
Use 'tool graphing' if you need to monitor on router load per each client,
create 'queue simple' for each or desired client and monitor them.

I am using ppp but all my customers are permanent access with authorisation via RADIUS for their CPEs. All have unlimited time and access, and pay a subscription for a monthly data allowance for off-net traffic to the Internet. If they exceed that allowance they are not cut-off but just pay a higher rate for 'excess MBs'.

Thus I only need to be able to monitor their usage in order to know if I need to charge excess MBs on any account, but as their usage is uncontrolled and open-ended my customers need a way to monitor and ration their own usage to avoid unknowingly clocking up excess MBs and incurring the additional charge. At the present I can't give them individualised access to this information via user-manager's web-pages so have to monitor everyone's usage on a daily basis and keep them individually informed, which is an administrative chore I could do without!

In this case, user manager is not something you need to use!

use traffic flow, graphs, snmp or any other method but not usermanager.

Me perhaps, but how do I give users their own individualised access to only their own data, in a format they can comprehend and for a specific billing period?

Presently I'm generating a report in User-Manager (or trying to - the report generator doesn't seem to be totally reliable) cutting and pasting it to a text file and importing that into an Excel template which automatically combines rx and tx into a total traffic figure, compares that to the user's monthly allowance and generates a % result so that I can tell the user 'hey, you're only 10 days into the month but you've already used 50% of your allowance," because that's what they want to know - and really all they want to know so they can fine-tune their usage and choose whether or not to run up excess MBs at the end of the month.

It works, and doesn't take too long but it's still a daily chore I could do without.
