        Hi,

        You want to prohibit that the same user (person) uses his login credentials on more then one device ?

        The first possibility :

        ca0f7d24-cc40-4ec2-9d8a-ff06991a144e-image.png

        Note : only the last login will grant access, previous logins using the same user credentials are disconnected.
        Maybe not what you want.

        Next possibility :
        Use vouchers will a very small number of minutes - 5 or so.
        Also activate this option :

        e0f8f95a-500e-446a-8fd9-696ffba2f652-image.png

        Ones the voucher is used, it will become unusable very fast.
        Drawback : it's up to you to remove the MAC addresses from the MAC list, so no more automatic time out.

        Next solution :
        Use FreeRadius to enforce Captive portal authentication.

        When you use settings like this :

        52072768-c9c5-4bdd-9959-6c4d2b0cf775-image.png

        only one user/password combination can be active, all other attempts will get denied.

        Maybe a drawback : you'll be using FreeRadius. You'll have to learn a lot about this "tool" top manage it a "little bit".

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