using a gargoyle repeater with a captive portal?

Post by bbsux »

I tried to search for info but didn't find anything.
situation:
at work, they have a public wifi that when you connect and try to surf it takes you to a confirmation page to accept some access regs. you submit it and (in a browser at least) it will install a certificate, then you have access to the net.

I have a chumby one that id like to use but despite editing it to login automatically I cant get it to work.

what id like to do if possible is use an old fon2100 with gargoyle to auto login then repeat it with a wpa2. that way the chumby could login to that.

thanks for your help.

You might be better off with OpenWRT and nodogsplash

maybe you misunderstand... I want the gargoyle bridge to automatically hit the submit button that is served by the access point.

nodogsplash is to setup a access point like the one % have at work.

Isn't there anything that can be done to do this? Like a command entered into crontab or something?

This hidden form data is in the web page

Code: Select all

<form name="weblogin" action="https://web.auto.configed.certificate/aaa/webauth.html?wbaredirect=wba-dns-error" method="post">
   <input type="hidden" name="fname" value="wba_login" />
   <input type="hidden" name="username" value="public" />
   <input type="hidden" name="key" value="public" />
   <input type=submit onclick="this.value = 'Submitted';" value=" Accept " />
</form>
couldn't I send this?

wget -O - --post-data 'fname=wba_login&username=public&key=public' \
https://web.auto.configed.certificate/a ... -dns-error
