<![CDATA[CAPTIVE Portal is very slow.]]>Hi Team,

I am using Dual core PC with 4 GB RAM. Everything works like charm. But when I create captive portal with local database authentication. It takes more than 1 minute to load the portal. Is there any way to fix this?

FYI I am using default captive portal. Nothing custom.

Thanks in advance

As usual : ten of thousands have a working situation.
You haven't

A fact : You and I have the same software.
Only the settings are different.
Our settings are ok - because it "works".
Yours ..... well ..... this is what we have :
One word.
"Problem".

Should I detail my settings ?
Or you ?
Chose wisely  ;)

What are your firewall rules on the interface used by the captive portal (if it's the default LAN interface with the default "pass all" rule then all will be fine).

What is the IP / gateway / DNS that pfSense gave (DHCP server running on pfSense) to the device you use to test the portal ?
