          Install 2.1.1, either a snapshot now, or when it's released.

                Good

                My gave me the same problem and in the end the only solution I've got is to empty the contents of the file uaxero mentioned in a post above.

                I leave the path: /var/db/captiveportaldn.rules

                My version is 2.1.1 RELEASE

                Sorry for my English

                    hello.

                    What you should check is : are users getting disconnected by the portal interface.
                    If not, then things will go wrong.

                    Some ideas about how to test if the disconnecting is working, see here https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=67739.0

                    No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
                    Edit : and where are the logs ??

                      At  that time,The disconnected Does not seem normal!But the future users may 2000+,Has the maximum number of bug, will go wrong!

                      About disconnected,There are command can be executed to restart the disconnect procedure?in CLI or UI?

                        Can you upgrade to 2.1.2 and verify that this is not happening anymore?

                        Also some system specification is welcome here.

                              Is this valid fix for this issue or this fixes something else?

                                This patch looks simple  ;)

                                What about checking if the patch is been used?

                                Instead of applying the patch:

                                			/* Release unused pipe number */
                                			captiveportal_free_dn_ruleno($pipeno);
                                
                                

                                use this:

                                			if ($pipeno) {
                                				captiveportal_logportalauth($cpentry[4],$cpentry[3],$cpentry[2],"CONCURRENT LOGIN - REUSING IP {$cpentry[2]} - removing pipe number {$pipeno}");
                                				captiveportal_free_dn_ruleno($pipeno);
                                			}
                                

                                It seems (to me) more logic to test the value of $pipeno (should be non-zero) before using it **
                                And, of course, make a log so you can see that the patch was executed (and actually freeing up a pipe rule).
                                Remember: no more free pipes rules provokes the message "System reached maximum login capacity".

                                  This patch is not in 2.1.3 and it should be.

                                  Can somebody reopen this bug?

                                          Apply the patch above or upgrade to 2.1.4 when it comes out.
