I like to make a simple web page, when the link is down then redirect users to this site. “Service unaviable, please call…”
But it’s impossible to use an external webserver, because the rb’s are at the users and it’s impossible to put one webserver to all users.
Have you any idea how it’s possible solve this ‘feature’?
if you mean link from client to main router then it is not directly possible, as normis said.
But if you mean link from your main gateway to public network, then you can redirect traffic to your local web server, which will display your custom page.
If your link between 2 ap’s is down, yo can’t acces web server on your center, because no route
[client]----[AP1]-----(broken link)----[AP2]----[web server]
In this case AP1 must be a webserver!

I think my (deleted) idea don’t violate your license, because don’t modify any things!
So I ask you for acces to legal solution!
Which page is he speeking of anyway?
The on you get that allows you to download winbox, etc.??
Or the Hotspot?
If it is the First one then try adding a firewall rule to block incoming connections on port 80.
My hotspot page still works with this configuration.
I am running 2.9.43
third case
I’m not sure are you understand what I want. So one more time, I have an AP on a tower.
If the main link is down, I like inform my users.
[many user]-------[tower; RB500]-----(broken link)----[other networks]
In this case like all web traffic forward to an web page. But my main web server isn’t reachable (because the main link is down) So I think mt uses self webserver, so put a simple web page to mt’s folder and redirect all web pages to this one. The method is not question yet. The only problem is I have’nt access to the root folder of the mt’s webserver (where is the winbox.exe etc)
Also the question is: how to put one static html file to MT and what is the url to this file?
I try put this file to hotspot directory and try http://mt’s ip/hotspot/myerror.html, but the answer is Error 404: Not Found
