Wired captive portal
Check you don't have wired captive portal enabled on the gateway node. Check you do not have wired captive portal set to on, on the gateway node. When you say ping the internet do you mean by IP addy or name? If addy works and name does not (does not resolve to an IP) then DNS is shot.

Just had an odd thing. I can ping the Internet on a gateway, but it will not give me an Internet page. Skype up and running and logmein up and running, but cannot get a page up. Meshing fine but repeater nodes also will not let you get a page up.

edit me
ust make an account for the terminal/computer in your realm and set to Mac address or password pair to log in. And it should let you through. Neil Sorry to ask the same old questions, but when connecting through the wired Captive portal do you always have to log in with user and password, or is there a simple way of connected computer to just log in as per the MAC log ins. Sorry I think some did ask this question some time ago but cannot find it in my Mesh list.

=== Is there a way to turn off the SSID broadcast? Under "extra features", set max wireless clients to "0". I believe it will not give out dhcp leases - someone correct me if I'm wrong ??

Alternatively, if you want to give a lease and display a page or something, create another realm with no users in it, and lock that node to it. Edit a custom splash page to display a message (remove the login). Is there a way to turn client traffic off on the wireless interface while leaving Captive Portal on the wired interface on?

I forgot - under extra features - DHCP on wireless - set to off.

You can if the firmware of the wireless card supports it. Unfortunately as of b25d98 the kernel does not support the ioctls to re-flash if you have an old card, even though prism2_srec is supplied

what you want is "enh_sec" see prism2_param --help (you probably want mode
