<![CDATA[My cellphone is being disconnected every 2 minutes when I run the portal captive]]>Hello everybody!! I have a problem. I am running my own server, so I needed a portal captive and I tried pfsense. I modified the html code of the main page of the captive portal to redirect it automatically without authenticating to my local server (192.168.0.100). However, after 2 minutes my cellphone is disconnected from the network. Laptops and other media over WIFI works just fine.

I think it is because I am not authenticating, so the captive portal is disconnecting my cell phone. I do not want to authenticate because I just want to provide my services in the local server.

Any ideas? Greetings!!

By default, close to  nothing get through the interface and when authenticated, the rules on the GUI interface are used.
No redirecting comes into play here … or I'm not understanding how you use the captive portal.

Btw, I believe this is more a wifi-radio connection issue - just cable up a device, not a phone of course, to see if the problem still exists.

Hi,

An idea : stop the captive portal. The problem persists ?
