        @bodat I haven't played with the vouchers in captive portal but I would think that if you wanted a user to re-authenticate you would need to delete the voucher then disconnect the user.

          i have tried to delete or make it expire that works, but what if my client have 1 voucher for 1 hour only and tried to log out after 30 minutes and then resume after 2 hours, the captive portal says voucher is expired because during log out the voucher remains active and consuming its time.

              I would think by your own discovery it's designed to be non stop. Think about it like a internet cafe, and people are paying for a block of time. I'm sure there are more elaborate setups where you can get a report about how much time or data a user has consumed but I'm guessing this isn't what you are looking for in your home environment. Again I don't use CP that way so I may be speaking from a place of pure ignorance.
