Fair call.

If I create a user where the attribute does NOT exist then I can authenticate but cannot keep the user to the total data allowance (see below as why this is required).
If I create a user where the attribute does exist then after the accounting record is created in the radacct table then subsequent attempts to authenticate fail.

Maybe it's time to read the source code for the counter module :(

Yeah - I'd rather provide an unlimited data allowance too but in this case it is not possible. I've taken on the task (as a volunteer) to provide  a hotspot for a community group's conference and the only broadband access we have at the venue is via a 3G mobile service (limited to 3GB in a month) :(  Additional data is priced at $100/GB !!
