17.7 Legacy Series / Captive Portal Redirect Issue v17.7.5
« on: February 07, 2018, 01:51:53 am »
Hi All,
I recently re-installed 17.7.5 on my appliance to create a test wifi solution
I followed the instructions at https://wiki.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/guestnet.html to configure the guestnet as per the document
However I am facing a problem where any computer connected to the interface will not automatically re-direct to the login page - It will simply not connect to anything
If I manually go to the IP http://10.0.0.1:8000 and use the login option there, it will then allow internet access no problem (so it does work). The question now is how do I get anyone that is not authenticated to be pushed to that 10.0.0.1:8000 address first if they enter for example google.com - is there some step not documented or a common pitfall I might be geting caught in?
Another item may/may not be relevant is I downloaded the templete as per the guide and added logo and text to it, this does not show on the 10.0.0.1:8000 page, its just the standard OPNSense Login button and logo, could this be related to the problem I have? I havent done much on that side in terms of troubleshooting until I could get the redirect working.
Any/All opinions experience or advice welcome.
