Hi Bino,

It seems a captive portal redirection issue.

When you try to access a http website (say espn.com), after connecting to WLAN, are you getting portal page? If you are getting a security warning, could you confirm if you are using a CA signed certificate for controller and it's related web services?

Please provide more information.

1- WLAN configuration screenshot.
2- Did you configured walled garden?
3- Is the AP and client VLAN is same or different. Try to use same AP and client VLAN and confirm results. If this works.

You can choose your desired name followed by company name.

For example: sz.ruckuswireless.com

If you are going to buy a wild card cert then you just need the company name.

For example: *ruckuswireless.com

Note: Make sure to add DNS entry for the domain name you select or FQDN of the device.

If you have a CA signed wildcard certificate already, you can use it with SZ without buying a new one.

Please refer the article from here, which explains how to create CSR and import the cert on SZ controller.
