Open WiFi Captive Portal Logins

Sat Sep 24, 2022 6:33 pm

Hi,

I have a GrooveA connected behind a hAP-ac router. I connect to the hAP-ac's WiFi with my PC, then open a browser and log into the admin page of the GrooveA in order to force it to scan and connect to a suitable access point. As a boater, I frequently encounter marina WiFi access points that are open, but have a captive portal redirect that requires a code to be entered before access to the greater internet is allowed. Here's an example of a redirect:
http://149.28.233.252:8880/guest/s/id00 ... n-Marina#/

Why can't the GrooveA admin page implement a tiny browser page that would allow the code entry for captive portals?
Is there another way, short of copying the MAC of the GrooveA and then changing my PC MAC to be identical?
