Hello,
I live in student accommodation and I have to log into a website every single day to access the internet as they disconnect all devices every 24 hours. I want to be able to use my Chromecast and my current solution is to use a Travel router(TP-LINK TL-WR702N) and create a non splash screen wifi for that and also for any guests who come over.
I've gotten it to work but it's incredibly fiddly (very random if I can log into the router or not at times always end up resetting back to factory settings) and requires me to redo the process every day.
I was wondering if there's a permanent solution? I'm guessing the IP address is changing after every 24 hours.
Also i'm using a switch so I can use my PC and router at the same time. Thought i'd mention that in case that was useful.
Any help is appreciated, i'm not great with network stuff.
