Captive Portal stops redirecting clients after a while
-
Hello all together,
i'm using pfsense 2.4.5 p1 with a captive portal for the clients to login.
After a fresh setup everything works fine. New clients are redirected to the
captive portal login page.But after a few day runing the redirect stops isn't working anymore.
Do you have any ideas how i can resolv this issue or debug it?
Thanks for your help in advance.
Best regards, Max.

Yeah, there was something .... I've been using a patch for the captive portal back then.
I'm not sure it was disconnecting clients, though.
I've been using 2.4.5-p1 for months if not a year, way back then (2 years ago ?).2.5.0 was better - 2.5.1 even better and 2.5.2 is just great : set it and forget it.
The real issue is : why do you chose to use a version that has already has ameliorations and bugs fixes for it ? true, they are all documented and discussed in the forum : 2 years ago.
I can't actually list up anymore aspects of 2.5.0 or even 2.5.1 ;)edit : Coffee got my memory back : for 2.4.5-p1 there is are two rules that you have to apply :
Rule 1) Never change the portal settings when user are connected.
Rule 2) If you have to, go to Status > Captive Portal> ZONE and use the red button.
