====Scenario==== The teenagers each have a mobile, a laptop, and friends; almost every month the Download cap is reached; the ISP has outrageous excess charges; and no-body knows where all of the the GB went. ====Objective==== Share Downloads fairly between family members. ==== Assign Static IP Addresses ==== Assign a fixed static IP address to each device (mobile, laptop, tablet etc) and keep the static IPs for each person together in a group. == Gargoyle - Connection - DHCP == ^ DHCP ^^ |☑ LAN DHCP Server Enabled || |DHCP range \\ Start 192.168.1.100 \\ End: 192.168.1.249 || ^ Static IP's ^^ | Printer | 192.168.1.2 | | SqueezeBox | 192.168.1.3 | | [[http://www.gargoyle-router.com/phpbb/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=6110 | nworbnhoj]]-laptop | 192.168.1.50 | | [[http://www.gargoyle-router.com/phpbb/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=6110 | nworbnhoj]]-mobile | 192.168.1.51 | | Mum-tablet | 192.168.1.60 | | Mum-mobile | 192.168.1.61 | | Boy1-laptop | 192.168.1.70 | | Boy1-mobile | 192.168.1.71 | | Boy1-NetPC | 192.168.1.72 | | Boy2-laptop | 192.168.1.80 | | Boy2-mobile | 192.168.1.81 | ==== Set Daily Quotas ==== Assign an equal share to each family member. For example: if the Download cap is 30GB/month then each family member could be assigned a quota of 30GB / 30days / 4people = 250MB/day. Round up to say 300MB/day. == Gargoyle - Firewall - Quotas == ^ Bandwidth Quotas ^^ | 192.168.1.50-192.168.1.59 | Max Total Download = 300MB/day | | 192.168.1.60-192.168.1.69 | Max Total Download = 300MB/day | | 192.168.1.70-192.168.1.79 | Max Total Download = 300MB/day | | 192.168.1.80-192.168.1.89 | Max Total Download = 300MB/day | | All Hosts without Explicit \\ Quota's (Combined)((for visitors))| Max Total Download = 100MB/day | \\ \\
