The biggest one-time project youve ever worked on (and how much it paid) - R5N3T - Feb 18, 2026
I once got a project setting up a MikroTik server for a company’s hotspot system in my area.
The work didn’t actually take that long, I configured it so that any device connecting to the router would automatically be redirected to a hotspot login page in the browser.
The page had a username and password form along with the company profile, and I also designed the login website myself.
The whole project took about one week to finish.
I got paid around $1,300.
Honestly, for me personally, that felt really big at the time
How about you guys? What’s the biggest one-time project you’ve ever done? Want to share your story too?

umm.. thats a hard question.
2k for 20mins work building a custom CRM. That probably the quickest.
Project wise most profit IDK 140k? but took a couple of months.

That’s okay, but I think the monthly salary is quite big 😁
