Plans, speeds and bandwidth control

A package is enforced, not just priced

Each plan carries the speed it sells. When a customer is put on it, the matching profile and queue are applied on the router; when they move to a different package, the router moves with them. There is no second step where someone edits a queue by hand to match what was sold.

Burst

Burst lets a connection run above its committed rate for a short period — the thing that makes a 5 Mbps package feel quick when a page loads and still hold the line under sustained download. It is configured per plan and works on both RouterOS 6 and 7 queues.

Which plans actually sell

Most ISPs discover they have one package carrying the site, one or two that nobody has ever bought, and a price point they guessed at. Plan performance reporting shows revenue and take-up per package so the guess can be replaced with the answer.

• Revenue by package, so a cheap plan selling in volume is visible next to an expensive one that sells twice a month.
• Take-up per site, because the right price in a hostel is rarely the right price in an office block.
• Packages with no sales at all, which is usually the more useful half of the report.
