Hello
E4r decoder + captive portal.
I've read some URLs that claim to be possible, but the option doesn't appear in the options. Can someone please guide me?
Thansk in advance

@David-TP Thanks so much. After updating with the recommended firmware, it's showing the options... I didn't search, so I just applied the one that was available via OTA. Once again, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. Topic closed.

Interesting that firmware version was supposed to allow that option. Can you please confirm that the guest network is enabled? Also can you please provide the hardware version of your decos? it should be listed on the bottom of your deco.Also are you running your decos in AP mode? Or WiFi Router mode?
It's the weekend for David so it might take up to 48 hours for him to get back to you.

Hi, Deco E4_1.7.0 hasn't added Captive portal under Guest network.
We might still need to wait for a higher version upgrade(1.9.x).
