hotspot login page and Ipad ?

Thu May 31, 2012 10:27 am

When I use Ipad or Iphone to connect to hotspot network it brings me popup window automatically with login page and when I enter user/pass window disappears, and then I must open browser again to continue ... Is any way to disable that automatically popup window. I want to connect to hotspot and than manually start browser and then to log in.

I can't find how mikrotik initialize that automatic login process ???
Is that in HotSpot HTML pages or something on lower level ??

Thanks !

Its built into Apples IOS - captive portal helper.

To stop it happening, simply add www.apple.com into the walled garden, and the popup wont happen until they load their web browser.

Is it also possible to show the popup that says that the user should continue to log in his internet browser?
The problem now is that most users already think that they are connected and click on some apps but that is not working.
