Change Redirect Interval

[anengelsen]

After my users successfully authenticate against the captive portal (via a web browser) the user is presented with the following page:

Is it possible to change the duration of time that the "Redirecting to" text appears on the page?

Currently I have to wait 5-8seconds before this page replaced with the website that the user was (originally) trying to visit.

Thanks!

Hi,

The redirection time is already set to 0 seconds.
The 5-8 second delay you are having ...correspond to the actual loading of google.com

You can view this by yourself: The cross here indicate that the (next) page is loading

Few possible root cause for this delay :

• Super slow connection
• Missconfigured DNS which make your browser try multiple DNS servers
• Very slow computer

You should check the dev tools to verify what's happening

Which tools did you have in mind? I used the DNS Lookup diagnostic tool (built into PFsense). It looks as thought DNS lookups are taking place within an acceptable amount of time.

Granted, this one test does not reflect the multitude of variables that might have effected the firewall, at the time I was experiencing the redirection lag.
