Re: Public WiFi Access Authentication

"Ile sans Fil"  use WifiDog on linksys wrt54g (with openwrt) and on a
central authentication server (with debian).

I'm not sure if you can integrated the captive portal + the
authentication server directly into a router with Wifidog.

If you plan to install more hotspot in the future, you should consider
a central server for authentication, management and statistic.

Hello,

I have some 802.11a Access Point (privately) in Strasbourg and want to
open it public.  The solutions I have found are not suitable and some
are realy strange.

What I have:

|
|
|     802.11a     Auth-Router       Main
+---- Access ----   (Etch)    ---> Router <----> Internet
      Point          DHCP

I want, that the Auth-Router block ANY traffic until the $CLIENT which
connect over the Access-Point call ANY http-URL and autentificate.

Then the $CLIENT is allowed to use the connection until the last traffic
was on its MAC/IP for, e.g. 5 minutes, then the $CLIENT is required to
re-authenticate.

Also I need to prohibit that sevewral Clients use my Access-Point as
free bridge for there traffic.

I was searching the Net for a sample config how to do this but failed.

So, I want to install the authentication website directly on the Auth-
Router.

Does anyone has done this before and how must I make the iptables setup
to let this work?

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day
