Connect type setup

Post by zaib »

Salam Alaekum,

Nowa days connect cable.net services is getting popular day by day due to its good download speed and stability.

They are the first operator who have introduced the scratch card system in cable.net environment, and the account automatically expires in 30 days, therefore this sort billing concept is awesome, no mroe credits on users.

How can we setup our internet server in above scenario, what will be needed ? Mikrotik ? or it can also be done on Linux using scriptings ?

Yes I mentioned it in the howto's and pasted the links from where the article have been taken from, I personally didn't write them all, just modified them a little to make it more user friendly and for personnel reference.

AOA,

Setting up a PPPoE Server is not that difficult. I did setup pppoe server few months back and it worked fine.

Regarding billing solutions, there are many available, however i have not come across any that can match the features and reliability of ALEPO, its the best one can get, however its a bit costly.
