No captive portal access if omada controller not activated on the computer

Hello,
I have EAP 225, it's a great product but it was just a problem.
When the omada controller (v4.2.4) is disabled, the captive portal does not work.
No connection interface possible for the guest, but we see the SSID.
This is a big problem, a computer must to be on all the time or you wue must buy an OC200 ...
The documentation is not clear on this.
You say in the commercial page like this:
https://www.tp-link.com/en/business-networking/omada-sdn-access-point/eap225/
Secure Guest Network: with several authentication options (SMS / Facebook Wi-Fi / Voucher, etc.) and numerous wireless security technologies.
EAP xxx has a captive portal but you don't warn that you need a permanent computer or OC200.
And in the FAQ:
https://www.tp-link.com/en/support/faq/1041/
You say when yhe controller is offline withe siple password configuration:
- Portal page provided by EAP
- Authenticated by EAP
You are selling a manageable system in the cloud but it needs a PC to use a captive portal, one of the main functions of the equipment.
Are you going to offer a solution in a future firmware so that the captive portal works without the omada controller being activated ?
I am not satisfied with my purchase.
Thank you
