Captive Portal Not Requesting Authentication

[bebop_man]

I am attempting to setup pfsense with a captive portal.

Basic internet access works, but when I create a Captive portal, and enable "Local User Manager / Vouchers" with "Allow only users/groups with "Captive portal login" privilege set", nothing appears to happen.

I connect a device to the LAN network, and open a web browser.  My start page, or any other page, opens immediately.  I'm never prompted for credentials or a voucher.

Where can I start looking to resolve this issue?

You checked you firewall ?

@chek69:

You checked you firewall ?

well, as he said,

… My start page, or any other page, opens immediately ....

traffic (http https and - important - dns) works ….
The default pfSense rule " let everything go out " should be in place. And the same firewall rule would be enough to make the portal work.
I'm presuming of course, this still is a typical case of "My firewall doesn't work and I'm NOT showing you my firewall rules so you could NOT see why it doesn't work …"

I connect a device to the LAN network

Detail the connection please - is this by wire ? Or Wifi, and thus an AP is involved …

Or : Others are uploading their own 'portal page' without knowing that "html" is not a human language, the slightest error will take everything down ... (the built in page works great).
