Topic: NoCatSplash on WRT54G

The content of this topic has been archived on 16 Apr 2018. There are no obvious gaps in this topic, but there may still be some posts missing at the end.

Hi guys,
I m actually trying to implement a new firmware for my router linksys WRT54G in order to get my WIFI upload an active portal using NoCatSplash whenever a machine comes around.  I m prettey close to the final result but I can t figure out why my fireware is flashed each time I turn off the access point. It seems that each time the access point power is turned down we need to reinstall the NoCatSplash, which is really inconvenient for me.
Any suggestion can help

Hi dep,

Take a look on EWRT [1], theese guys made a firmware based on Samhadi2 from Sveasoft that provides a captive portal.

Source code is available, so I guess we can package NoCatSplash too...

# Like NoCat+Auth sorta.

# glib-1.2 (splashd dep - This is kinda messy and I need to clean it up to use only the STAGEING DIR)

# Captive Portal (note I link this static but we really don't have to if we make libglib.a into a shared object)

# merged patch from ewrt and misc fixes.

# Schuyler's original patch to add Auth to splashd (needs testing/ also has gpg dep - would need a gpg.mk)

Hi All,

I am trying to compile openWRT under RED HAT 9.
It is returning following Error while I am trying MAKE. Could soemone please post working instructions for building openWRT?

Did you use the Search function before posting?
I don't think so.

My mistake.
I will follow link U have sent and provide an update.

Thanks,

I hope that this conversation is not dead yet. I am using the ewrt software right now. The only thing that I cannot figure out is how to change the NoCatSplash, because it is not their access point, I do not want people to think it is. Any help is appreciated.

You post makes no logical sense.
Can you please clearly define what your talking about.
Start with filling in the missing link of what ewrt has to do with OpenWrt.

The discussion might have continued from here.
