Title: Problem with Captive Portal
Post by: andreadepau on August 01, 2019, 05:23:31 pm

Hi,
i've some problem with Captive Portal.
The first time that i set up, with the local database, the Portal works but I couldn't log in, return authentication failed. Than, I have setup again, also with Voucher, but now the portal is no longer displayed and the session time out. Can you help me to solve this issue?

I've tested this configuration in a VM on VirtualBox, and also on the Miniserver SMALL3 HW.

Thank you

I just also set it up for myself today. There is a step missing from the guide. I wish who could update this?

It is not serving DNS to the GUESTNET. If you use DnsMasq, You need to go to Services -> Dnsmasq DNS -> Settings, and there enable the interface in "Network Interfaces" option. In my settings it was listening only to LAN. After that, it works like a charm. Super!

Hi, I have the same problem: When setting op a captive portal with voucher, users only can login to the portal when you manually go to <guest_netip>:8000. I am not using DNSmasq.
