Hello,

I was unable to reproduce. Disabling "Enable per-user bandwidth restriction" without clearing the two fields effectively disable per-user bandwidth for me...Am I missing something ?

I have two routers running on 2.4.4-RELEASE-p2 (amd64) and they have radically different configurations-- one with about 25 active users and the other around 1200 active users. I just took the following steps on both routers to confirm that it's still a problem here:

1. Confirmed in Status/Traffic Graph that several users are exceeding 5M Bits/Sec (some are over 150M Bits/Sec)
2. In Captive Portal profile, Checked "Enabled per-user bandwidth restriction" and set "Default download" to 5000 (left Default upload blank), then saved
3. Confirmed in Status/Traffic Graph that all users' bandwidth has been limited to 5M (confirmed, the top users are sitting at 5)
4. Returned to the Captive Portal profile and Un-Checked "Enabled per-user bandwidth restriction" without clearing the "Default download" blank, then saved
5. Looked in Status/Traffic Graph to see that all users are still being limited to 5M Bits/Sec
6. Returned to the Captive Portal profile, Checked "Enabled per-user bandwidth restriction", then cleared "Default download" blank, then saved
7. In Status/Traffic Graph, users are no longer being restricted (some are over 150M Bits/Sec)

I haven't done anything with the Default Upload field at all, because it's not an issue in this environment. Is there anything else I can do to help diagnose this?

Really it's not enough of a problem to spend a lot of time on, as long as I'm aware that the field needs to be cleared for the limit to go away.

Cheers

This fix clears <bwdefaultdn> and <bwdefaultup> if <peruserbw> is disabled:
