3. (Optional) Upload a Custom Logo
Follow this procedure only if you want to be able to select a custom logo when you
configure a custom splash page.
4. Configure a Default or Custom Captive Portal Splash Page
You can use the default splash page that the access point provides or set up a custom
splash page.
5. Enable the Global Captive Portal Mode
You only need to enable the captive portal mode once on the access point. After the
mode is enabled, it applies to both captive portal instances.
6. Select one of the captive portal instances for a WiFi security profile (see Configure and
Enable WiFi Security Profiles on page 38).
After you select the captive portal instance for a WiFi security profile, the WiFi network that
is associated with the WiFi security profile becomes accessible only through the captive
portal.
Specify Captive Portal Profile Settings and Enable the
Captive Portal Instance
For each of the two captive portal instances (NETGEAR and NETGEAR-1), you can specify
the type of captive portal (HTTP or HTTPS), whether users are redirected to a website, the
idle time-out settings, and the user authentication mode.
In addition, make sure that the captive portal instance is administratively enabled.
To specify captive profile settings and enable a captive portal instance:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the
access point or to the access point directly through an Ethernet cable.
For more information, see Log In to the Access Point on page 15.
2. In the address bar, enter the IP address of the access point.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the user name and password.
The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
4. Select Configuration > Security > Profile Settings.
