    @danbutter:

    Ok, I documented everything I did as I did it so that someone can hopefully tell me what I did wrong.

    Ok then I then changed the name of the OPT1 interface to CP, changed it's IP to 192.168.11/24, enabled it and clicked on save.

    Thanks for any help anyone can give me here.

    i hope you meen 192.168.11.1/24

      Good catch though.

        Just to update this, I was able to do the same thing on the OPT1 interface.
        I changed the IP to a /16 rather than /24 and changed the firewall rule to ANY rather than just TCP and it works.

        However the DHCP server for the OPT interface still takes over my LAN clients.
        I have to turn off the DHCP server for the OPT interface to get the one on the LAN interface to work again.
        Strange.

        hoba…Did you get the config.xml that I sent to you?

            well, I sent it out on the 16th so I either typed something wrong or maybe your email doesn't like hotmail?

            Either way I am attaching it now.
            I don't think there is anything private in there.

            config.xml.txt

              Ok, I'll test it with one of my systems soon.

                Ok thanks.
                No hurry. 
                I won't be messing with the box till next year at this point anyway.

                I do believe that I will do a fresh install of 1.0.1 though as there are things like the shaper wizard that are broken for me in the snapshot.
                I also keep getting a very strange thing where some computers on my network will only get between 5 and 6MB to the internet while others get 20Mb….it isn't all the time....just strange.
                So I think a fresh install is in order after the holidays.

                  Ok. Just installed 1.0.1 on a 4801-60. All is working fine. for me until I enable captive portal (CP). I basically have my network configured the same way. Here is what I have

                  sis0: LAN:  192.168.0.1/25
                  sis1: WAN: DHCP (Public IP Supplied by SBC DSL Modem)
                  sis2: OPT:  192.168.0.129/25 (Airport wireless Network with WDS)

                  sis0 is running a DHCP server for the LAN clients
                  sis2 is running a DHCP server for the users that are wireless

                  all this works before enabling CP. Once I enable CP the browser never gets redirected to the CP to allow me to authenticate.

                  any ideas?

                    @hoba:

                    …you need to use the interface IP of the captive portal enabled interface as DNS server for the redirect to work and to bring up the CP page....

                      After reading thru the thread before posting by post I had noticed that and have set it up accordingly. The DHCP server that assigns IP addresses on that interface assigns the interface as the primary DNS server.

                      Still NO go.  ;-(
