Hi all - so I've been looking in to setting up a captive portal and not been getting very far :(

Done the usual Googling and have drawn a bit of a blank as any topics on the matter seem very vauge to me and missing actual set up guides etc. So far I've got a Cisco/Linksy router and have flashed it with a custom firmware (dd-wrt) which I believe should be able to manage a captive portal through the router without the need for any additional software running on a client PC etc.

Ideally want the custom WiFi hotspot to force people to a chosen website when they log on to it and open their browser.

Any help greatly appreciated!

Thanks all :)
