User won't show up in Status -> Captive Portal
-
Captive portal runs just simple disclaimer message with Proceed button (that means no authentication).
A user has problem:- he can seen CP page
- after pressing Proceed, requested HTTP (not HTTPS) page won't load up (timeout) => he cannot browse internet
- other users have no problem
- captive portal has no MAC filtering configured
According to /var/log/portalauth.log he has been accepted many times during the day:
Oct 18 13:41:50 gw logportalauth[75440]: Zone: BUILD_F3 - ACCEPT: unauthenticated, 21:41:ad:ac:4f:11, 192.168.34.19
But his MAC address is not shown in Status -> Captive Portal under BUILD_F3.How is that possible?
pfSense 2.3.4-RELEASE-p1

Hi, mdes
If, as you wrote, other users have no problem, I think that the problem comes from that user's equipment, and not from your configuration. :D

Good news.
YOU are the chief of your firewall.
I you have any doubt, ask the firewall yourself directly.

Check the tables :the IP and MAC are listed ? (thus : they pass…)
