The information in this page is updated in accordance with 00.07.04.4 firmware version. .

Introduction

This article contains instructions on connecting to an existing Captive portal wireless network and using it as a WAN source for your local network. This feature works by utilizing the TravelMate package. Once you connect to the Hotspot wireless network with the router, it will redirect a LAN client to the Captive portal to accept the Terms of Service, log in, or otherwise authenticate to the hotspot network.

Perquisites

There are a few things that need to be done before connecting to the hotspot network:

  • Make sure the WebUI is in Advanced mode. This setting can be changed by clicking the Mode toggle in the top-right corner of the WebUI:

  • TravelMate package needs to be downloaded from the Package manager by navigating to Services → Package Manager → Packages.
  • Alternatively, if the router does not have an internet connection, the package can be downloaded from the Package Downloads page on our Wiki. This page can be found by selecting the model of your device on the Wiki home page.
