Hello people!

I want create a free wifii hotspot for advertising purpose.

The idea is realy simple, create a free wifii network where the client will be redirect on my commercial site and see ONLY my website (Theater and music events) without surf the web and any other kind of network service, only see my website and all other service blocked, to see our events and other information and make local advertise.

Wath kind of service can be good for this solution using ddwrt and a linksys wrt54g?

Thanks to all for the attenion.
Regards.

Chillispot does it

HTTP redirect should do it. Already in the firmware.

HTTP redirect is place to use a Transparent Squid Proxy, But yes it should do it also. The only trouble is that it will work also on lan side and DD-WRT box management will only be available through Telnet or SSH after.

Thank you for the extra information YzY. I tried it a couple years ago when I wanted a captive portal and found that it was only a simple re-direct. I thought that maybe I had remembered something that you had forgotten about.

I should know better than to think I can sneak past YzY !

the idea was good!

In fact i already do such thing through Chillispot captiv portal for some customers. the only difference with a common captive portal is that there is no login form on splash page.

The captive portal splash page in this case just inform about the activity of the owner and put light on some URL of his choice. Add the URL the owner wants to be "Browsable" for the wireless user in the Uamallowed section....And that's done!
