        You need to enable Plain MAC Auth on the FreeRADIUS settings page and fill in CP RADIUS MAC Secret with any value.
        Or create a RADIUS user with MAC username and password.

              @seekerman Default Captive Portal MAC address syntax is "00:11:22:33:44:55", not "00-11-22-33-44-55"

              also try to add MAC address on the FreeRADIUS / MACs page
