PROBLEMS:
In Hotel, I can share 1 a/c to many users using this method
https://nbctcp.wordpress.com/2014/09/30/share-1-hotel-wireless-account/
AP can't see MAC address of device behind NAT
so let say my pc will connect to ap through wifi then my pc will share that internet to ethernet for example
QUESTIONS
1. Am I correct to say that to overcome that situation. I need to use quota based on total download size + time based. Whichever reached first
2. any other better solutions
tq
Hi
You can use cnMaestro based guest access with vouchers to achieve this.

Let say, you set 1 Device Limit
I believe AP can't see MAC Address behind NAT, because I already test that in my POC
This my LAB Diagram
Internet < Mikrotik < TPLink CPE220 (AP Router L3 NAT) < User
Imagine Mikrotik as my cnPilot400e.
cnPilot can't see user MAC address because in different subnet
unless I set my TPLink as AP Bridge which make users same subnet as AP
So eventhough I set to limit to 1 Device. I can bypass that limitation using sw or hw
Any device which can do Internet sharing by doing routing/natting can bypass this single device limitation. Though the quota limits will still be enforced and it will account for all data used through that device.
