It is a managed service they buy from us on top of the internet and the customer gets a customized APP and we have a backend NOC and cloud support much like you would get with Calix. I'd probably do it with Calix if it were 100% up to me but there are pros and cons to each.

Even fairly knowledgeable consumers won't know what to do with a Mikrotik, and they could do some dangerous stuff. With Cambium CnPilot (and probably most products made for this purpose) the customer can have a separate login with less rights and get a simple "Linksys" style webpage to do stuff like that. The time based rules are usually built in feature. I'm pretty damn sure they exist in the CnPilot, but I'm not in a position to check right now. When the subject said "parental controls" I thought it was going to be blocking porno. I'm 100% hands off on that for a lot of reasons. I looked into it providing it as a service, but I just don't think there would be enough demand to make it viable. Even if it was viable I'm not sure I'd want to take responsibility for it. -Adam On 1/28/2020 11:40 AM, Ken Hohhof wrote: Those of you who supply managed routers (especially if you do this for everybody), do you set up parental controls? I had a request today from someone who wanted to turn off Internet at night to keep his 3 kids from using their devices. I thought this was kind of silly since they are 21, 23 and 24 years old. (Maybe like senators who have to put their devices in a cubby in the cloakroom. OK, I just thought that, didn’t say it out loud.) This guy has a leased Mikrotik from us, and Mikrotik does have a Kids control feature that could probably do this. But I don’t want to get into this, especially because I fear constant requests to override or tweak the settings. I also don’t want to give customers management control over a router that we are supposed to be managing. And in this case he wanted to do it across the board, but many people might want it set up by MAC address for each person in the family, so maybe the older kids would have later bedtimes and the parents wouldn’t have any restrictions. Or they might want the bandwidth restricted so the kids could do schoolwork but not stream video. What do you guys do? I’m going to guess Calix maybe has a cloud portal where the customer can do things like this on their own, while some settings are restricted to the carrier? What about other cloud managed routers like the Cambium stuff? -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com<mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com<http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com> -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com<mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com<http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com> -- Carl Peterson PORT NETWORKS 401 E Pratt St, Ste 2553 Baltimore, MD 21202 (410) 637-3707 -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com<http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com>
