Follow the steps below to enable Free Access (Accept Terms and Connect):

Step 1 - Configure Captive Portal appearance



Step 2 - Navigate to the Authentication Page


Step 3 - Enable Free Guest Access

The "Free Guest Access - Bypass Page" method cannot be combined with other authentication methods, as it fully bypasses the Authentication page.



 

Free Access with Validation (Survey or Password)

With Free Access with Validation, you can require guests to fill out a quick survey and/or use a venue-wide password to get connected. It’s the perfect balance between seamless access and ensuring you gather useful information.

Follow the steps below to enable Free Access with Validation:

Step 1 - Configure Captive Portal appearance


Step 2 - Navigate to the Authentication Page

Step 3 - Enable Free Guest Access with Validation

Step 4 - Customize the Validation fields

  • Customize the extra fields if you're collecting guest information. For example, ask for their Name, Surname, and City to gather data. Make sure each field is correct so users know what answers they need to provide.
  • Set your WiFi Password—for this example, it’s "12345678". Guests will need this to connect. If a user enters an incorrect password, they’ll see the message: Wrong password.

    If you don’t need users to enter a password for free access, simply leave the password field blank. This allows for a seamless "Connect to WiFi" experience where users can get connected without entering a password, but with collecting some data through a survey



Step 6 - Save Changes

  • After configuring the fields for Free Access with Validation, click Save to apply the changes.


The "Free Guest Access - With Validation" method can be combined with one or multiple authentication options, such as Voucher Login or Paid Access. For example, a user can connect for free using a password, but also has the option to upgrade to higher speeds by signing in with Paid Access or Voucher Access.
