Hello i want to setup a solution for a free captive portal server for a simple landing page without password. I'm thinking in testing CoovaChilli with JRadius . Does anyone here use this solution? Or have a better suggestion ?

best regards

I think that you need to register each user in Ruckus Local Database or some Radius in the landing page. Consider this steps:

1. User connect to hotspot.
2. User is redirected to landing page (Iron or another Captive Portal)
3. User register by clicking on a link or by entering user and password.
4. User is authenticated on Iron and then authenticated on Ruckus. (Iron or another Captive Portal resolve this)
5. User has Internet Access.

Best.

Yes, with CoovaChilli or wihan (https://github.com/Geenkle/wihan) is quite simple. I can help you, contact me!

We use IronWifi for our hijacks, and it works fine and well. Supports proper WISPr hijack now too. Costs $10 per active AP per month. Would recommend it, very flexible system, and reliable.
