Re: Breaking the internet (hotels, guestnet style)

Sounds like a great idea in theory but would require OS support or a dual-hotspot setup that provided for both options until support was expected. Until such time it's simply unworkable. That and as mentioned in my previous post, the setup we have *just works* for users who don't have the permissions to change off of a static IP and use DHCP on their laptops. Andrew

This really should be a DHCP option which points to the authentification server using ip addresses. This should be return to clients even if they don't request it. Web browers could have a hot-spot button that retrieves this option then connects using the value returned.

No need to compromise the DNS or intercept http.
