How to configure Captive Portal on Your Deco

With the Captive Portal feature configured on the Deco app, when wireless clients connect to the Deco network and try to access the internet, they will be directed to a preset web page that requires additional authentication information. Only wireless clients with valid credentials can access the internet through web authentication. This feature is suitable for managing wireless client access in public places such as hotels, shopping malls, and airports.

Follow the steps below to configure the Captive Portal settings in the Deco app (iOS or Android).

Note:

• Features may vary from different Deco models.

1. Open the Deco app, go to More > Guest Network.

2. Select a guest network and tap Advanced > Captive Portal.
