Hi everyone

Need some advice / help please

Moving to area where my only form of internet access would be via LTE.

I am planning to go via Telkom as ISP, since they seem to be the cheapest from what i can gather, and also plan on getting my own router since don't wanna be tied to a 2 year contract.

My issue is i will be sharing the house with another buddy, and should we decide to go the capped route (eg. 50gb cap), how will i go about splitting this bandwidth equally among us ?

With DSL i usually done it via bridge mode and each person just buys their own account, but not too sure with LTE ,have no experience with it and since most of the traffic would be via wireless, i presume things can get very tricky to setup a monthly bandwidth quota.

But again, there might also be a very straightforward way to achieve this.

What would be the best way to go about solving the above problem ?

Thanks for reading and in advance.
 
If you are fairly skilled with networking get a Hap Lite from Mikrotik or RB750 set it up with simple queues with a static ip for you and the person you are sharing with and use that to track the usage you can also run userman with it for perma stats with daily usage reports but it gets more complicated then.

About the easiest i know
