WiFi Captive Portal Development

When to Use

• Building or modifying captive portal splash pages
• Implementing guest WiFi authentication flows
• Integrating social login (Facebook, Google, Apple) for WiFi access
• Building data capture forms for WiFi signup
• Working with RADIUS servers or UniFi/Meraki controllers
• Implementing MAC address authentication
• Building location-based WiFi analytics

Architecture Patterns

Captive Portal Flow

Guest connects → DHCP assigns IP → HTTP redirect to splash →
User authenticates (social/email/SMS) → MAC authorized →
RADIUS accepts → Internet access granted → Session tracked
