Hi All,
I've posted this here and on the MikroTik subreddit to see if anyone knows of something I'm not aware of, but I'm wondering if there's any allowance in browsers nowdays to permit using a HTTPS authenticated hotspot page to be presented to an end user, without having them see the "This website isn't the one you requested" when they try to load https://www.google.com as their homepage.
I understand that the reason this is shown is that when user has requested www.google.com and the page and SSL certificate returned to them is along the lines of hotspot.example.com the browser should kick up an error, however given all mobile devices now simply tell you there's a login page you're hitting when you try to connect to a new wireless network, is there an allowance for new browsers to do this too, or perhaps something that could be added into a webpage to identify it as a hotspot page to the browser?
Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome.
