Hi harindra,

I am away from my chillispot right now. However, I would suggest the following:

1, Check if chillispot is running (/usr/sbin/chilli for me on debian Etch) because I have
found that when chilli was running it blocked traffic towards internet. So when even you
have problem with chillispot configuration (no redirection to login page) but if chillispot is
running, you should not be able to browse the internet.

2, If you cannot browse internet when you use iptables with rules other than NAT rules, it
probably blocks DNS traffic from/to the chillispot box. You should not block DNS traffic
(udp 53 on the INPUT chain coming from the internal LAN). You should also make sure your
chillispot box has access to DNS server.

3, Can you access the chillispot's login page manually entering its URL in your browser?

cheers,

Yvor77

Hi,

To be really honest I dropped Chillispot for a while as my manager is willing to pay some money for a non-free solution. We have choosen Mikrotik Router OS which has a very well usable hotspot module. I have been playing around with it and found it really good. My boss decided to use Mikrotik with Radius Manager for user management and billing.

However I did not give up on Chillispot either. Anyway I could be of help just let me know please.

Cheers,

Hi All,

I am using Chillispot 1.0-4 on a Debian Etch system with Freeradius 1.1.3-3.

I have made sure dictionary.chillispot and dictionary.wispr are included in Radius configuration.
I have defined these attributes for a user entry in /etc/freeradius/users file. When I test radius
server with radtest tool, its reply contains the attributes mentioned in the subject and have been
specified for the user account. However when I connect to the hotspot, only the downstream is
limited as it is requested. The upload stream is not limited at all.

I need help to solve this problem.

Thank you for any kind of help in advance.

Cheers,

Hi All,

First of all It was yesterday the first time when I have read about Chillispot so my knowledge about it has missing bits.

So far I could manage to build a Chillispot box using Debian Etch + Apache 2.2+SSL+Freeradius+BIND9 and Chillispot from Debian repository.
Everything seems working fine except one thing:
- if a user want to open a page other than tha default in the browser (by clicking to a URL) Chilli redirects the request to the login window as it is meant to do. However, after a successful login the browser gets redirected to the browser's default page instead of the one requested first.

I do not know whether it "by design" behaviour or it is a flaw and can be fixed.

Thank you for your help in advance.

Cheers,
