Setting up a bintec hotspot

You will have to match your router configuration with your syces configuration.

Re-Authenticaition with MAC-Address

To Re-Authenticate the User by using the MAC-Adress you need to modify the Walled-Garden URL of the hotspot.

Add the marked Part to the end of the Walled-Garden Address: “<walled-garden-address>/<cid>/<lid>/?mac=${CLIENT_MAC}”

Standard Setup versus Self Ticketing

Standard Setup

  1. You create accounts or vouchers for your hotspot users in advance.
  2. They will get to see the default router login page that consists of a left-hand login frame and a second frame that can

be adapted to your needs. Users are asked to enter username and password in the left hand frame.

Self-Ticketing

  1. Users may register to create their own accounts.
  2. Depending on which option you offer they will get to see the corresponding walled garden page. This may include a login frame, a registration frame, automatic login and reauthentication.
