Hello Guys, i have TP-Link TL-1043ND and DD-WRT firmware installed, I have a page called index.php. however, i want to make this page popup when someone connects to the router just like captive portal in hotspots, i have tried to miss with everything in hotspots section in the router but can't make it.

do you have any idea?

any help would be greatly appreciated

dd-wrt has captive portal support but I though it used a external server to do it. Now most this work was done many years ago when routers did not have the large cpu and memory they do today. You would still need to start a captive portal application on the router itself and then set the dd-wrt to send the intercepted traffic to that process.

If you search captive portal and dd-wrt you will find a lot of application that can do this....I am just not sure if the router itself can provide this function completely.

yes, you are right when the first releases of DD-WRT were launched routers were slow with small storages this is why they have used external services like hotsposystem and sputnik, but after then we have service in dd-wrt its NoCatSplash i've tried to set this up as it support the "Document Root" which the user can store his splash.html page in the router itself, in my case i have failed to implement this as my page is a PHP page and the hotspot in dd-wrt is not stable with this.

do you think its possible righting a code in dd-wrt so we can refer users to the splash page when they connect?

also i might try the solution provided by the admin here, untangle.com service
thanks guys
