Once you hit Start Flashing and the flash is done, the router will restart and we will be able to access the router using the same Coova software. The LED lights now should flash alternately indicating TFTP mode. If this doesnt work, you may have to press it for 16 seconds. If you re using a Ubiquiti device you should put it in TFTP mode by unplugging the POE ethernet cable, and reconnecting it while holding the reset button for 8 seconds. If youre using an Ubiquiti router, before clicking the Start Flashing Here you should select your network device, usually eth0 (wired) is the best choice, anyways I strongly recommend to click Save firmware to File button to store a backup of the original firmware. After the file is downloaded you will see the next window:.You have to click Flash CoovaAP and you will see a window like this where you should select your router model:.The steps to flash any of the above routers are:įor Linux systems: sudo javaws coova-ap.jnlp I tried with FreeRadius installed in a RaspBerry in LAN and also into an VPS through WAN I used this method in several Ubiquiti AirRouters and now it just take me 5 minutes to configure a router for a HotSpot system using FreeRadius. Ubiquiti: Bullet-M | Nano-M | Rocket-M | Airrouter | UniFi | Bullet/Nano/etc/.To use this solution your modem should be in this list(At the time the answer is wrote):

You may also connect through ssh to the router if some software customization is needed, like VLANS The best of this solution is that the router flashing part is very automatized and the Captive Portal configuration is made through a WEB UI very easy to understand and manage Some months ago I found a very easy answer for this question about making a captive portal. I would be thankfull for any information that can put me in a good direction, thanks! I also have a D-Link dir-615 H2 but it seems to be less compatible with open-wrt and dd-wrt than the TP-LINK. I've been reading and it seems that it's possible to configurate ChilliSpot via SSH, but the tutorials I found were not very helpfull, anyone can point me to a good tutorial for this ? It's possible that in dd-wrt case the configuration of chillispot wasn't applied to the router configuration ?įor open-wrt anyone has same errors with the web interface ? Someone with more experience than me could point me wich of these softwares is better to have a spot system/captive portal ? Once I fixed the uci package issue, I enable the uhttpd and start it, but when I try to connect via web I get another error "CGI didn't receive any response" Once I downloaded the package and try to access web I get error uci_load: not found First It didn't find the package, and I have to change the /etc/nf file

I tried to install "luci" the package for the web gui and I found with some errors: After updating my TP-LINK to Open-wrt I realized that I cannot access to the router via WEB, so I have to connect via telnet and ssh to install some packages and make some configurations. It seems the problem is obviusly with the router and It's something like the Chillispot configuration is not working, or the changes are not"applied"Īfter some hours trying to make work dd-wrt I think that maybe with open-wrt it was easier to configure, and here I found another problem. When I enable Chillispot on the router, I don't get IP assigned, meaning I can't connect to the wifi/lan. Here I tried both configurations, using my own server data, and also tried with WorldSpot data, and my issue was the same in both cases: In dd-wrt web interface there is an option in Services -> HotsPot -> ChilliSpot. My first try was with a TP-LINK WR841N (v7.) and DD-wrt using the web interface. I've been trying to configure a captive portal using DD-wrt and Open-wrt, with my own radius server and I've also tried to configure them using a CSP page ( ).
