Hey guys,
I’m currently sitting in an airport and wanted to repeat their captive portal wifi via my ATX 1800 router. I followed the GLI net guide and everything worked as expected - Im online!
However, every few minutes, my devices (macbook, phone) got disconnected from the router. Im currently trying to figure if this is a protection protocol by the airport wifi or if my router is having a bad time with repeating this signal.
What’s curious is that my devices got disconnected from my router. The router didnt lose power and was still broadcasting its signal. I just had to reconnect my devices and they were back online. It seems like I was kicked off by the network admin, yknow?
Here’s some logs:
Im hoping some you network sleuths can solve this mystery.
