Hi,

What should be the Wireless LAN interface (wlan2 in my case) configuration to use it with chillispot? What do I have to set and what don't?

in chilli.conf I have:
dhcpif wlan2

I've tried leave the wlan2 interface unconfigured, but when I try to bring it up I have a message that the wlan2 interface is not ready... The wlan2 goes up unconfigured, but when I start chillispot nothing happened (the interface is not active).

Well, it's not important to have different settings. I just like to know how it works and to understand why that happens.
Probably I'm not explaining well my situation (my english is not good either). I have a Debian with 2 interfaces - ppp0 (for Internet) and rausb0 (usb wireless card). The wireless card has static IP address 192.168.1.1 (ad-hoc mode for now). I was assuming that if I configure the chillispot to give clients addresses from this space would be OK. And the chilli gives IPs to the clients as expected, but the chilli itself doesn't work (no internet, no redirection, etc.).
With the default settings the chilli gives the clients addresses from the 192.168.182.x space and all works fine.
Anyway, it's not so important as the chilli is working well.
Thank you for your help! Большое спасибо!

I've tried first with 'dynip' and it stop working.
It looks like chillispot create a virtual network using the data in chilli.conf file and if I have LAN on the same address space the chilli won't work. Probably that's what happens - I have LAN 192.168.1.0/24 (that's rausb0, the same wireless I'm using for chilli) and I have the same IP addresses in chilli.conf file. Is that the way chilli works?

With all those parameters in chilli.conf commented out (as you suggest) it works! Great!
Now the question is why it doesn't with them?

it is 32bit very old machine (P133, 64MB...) with a Debian Leny.
It should be my mistake with the configuration or I'm missing something, but I cannot figure out what is it.
In chilli.conf I have:

# TUN parameters

I've just tried. No luck. It's the same.
Before adding the DNS and UAM-page to UAM-allowed, I had access to UAM page from the Web browser typing the IP address, but I was not  automatically redirected to it when not authenticated.

Hello,

I try to run a simple hotspot with chillispot-radius-mysql. Till now I have something working and something not...
The authentication is working - The chilli can auth. by MAC address successfully.

The problem is that there is no internet connection even after the successful authentication. The DNS is not working as well.  The only access is to the local Apache (192.168.1.1).
When I try to access the web, the chilli says:
"cb_dhcp_data_ind. Packet received. DHCP authstate: 2"

I'm using the chillispot firewall with
EXTIF="ppp0"
INTIF="rausb0"

The Chillispot brings tun0 interface up. Do I have to add some rules to the firewall for it?

The next problem is that without authentication I'm not redirected to the login page.

Cheers,
Nik
