<p dir="auto">I am playing with the captive portal, and have put in place a custom login script however I cannot see to get it to work.</p>
<p dir="auto">Insofar, after authentication the server shows a successful login, and I can see the session in the captive portal status page, however on the client it hangs on connecting to address http://ipaddress:8000 and after that times out I cannot connect any websites.<br />
Any ideas what I am doing wrong?</p>
<p dir="auto">My login script is as follows:</p>
<p dir="auto">&lt;title&gt;Company Name - Guest WiFi&lt;/title&gt;</p>
<p dir="auto">&lt;center&gt;</p>
<h2><a class="anchor-offset"></a></h2>
