Captive portal

2023-08-22 22:27:47

I have a TL WA1201

im trying to connect it to an xfinity Wi-Fi hotspot and share that internet connection on my own private network, using the range extender mode. im updated to the latest firmware.

the xfinity Wi-Fi connection process requires a browser to launch, in order to login to the service, followed by a dual factor authentification code.
I believe this is called a captive portal?

I can't get the router to launch this browser and connect to Wi-Fi. Any ideas how to accomplish this?

Would openwrt allow this process to work?

@Cantoncondo

I don't believe you would be able to make this working, because of the xfinity captive portal and TL-WA1201 working in RE mode.
