Version 1.0-beta.7d, Internal Hotspot performance.

Tue, 07/01/2008 - 13:54 — Uncle John

I appreciate this is still beta software so I can't expect too much. However when running in Internal Hotspot mode (i.e. "Simple Login Page") the longest time my CAPs will redirect to the captive portal landing page is about one hour after starting coova-chilli.
After that I need to stop and start coova-chilli to get it working again.
Has anyone been able to achieve a better result?

PS. Time was corrected after more careful testing.

Re: Version 1.0-beta.7d, Internal Hotspot performance.

I have four wifi networks running in total. Two at my home address and two at a rental property. The two at the rental property you can read about at http://coova.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=430
The two at home include comprise the following hardware:
Minitar MNWAPB and CAP connected to a Cisco 827H.
The settings for the CAPs at both addresses are the defaults for the "Simple Login Page" except of course my CoovaAAA shared secret.
I figured the if I could get these setups running reliably I could then try something a little more ambitious......sometime in the future....don't know when.

i use the wrt54 gl v1.1 too. I tried the internal hotspot just for a short time... experimental and it worked fine for me... slow but ok.
Do you use any other DSL-Router in your network, could you give me some more information about your settings and your network.

Thanks for your response. I use two APs. They are both WRT54GL. I bought two because I couldn't believe the results I got with the first one.
