How do you redirect outside the captives with a link? What I’m trying to do is after the Wi-Fi manager connects to the network instead of closing the setting page I wanted to open up a web browser to the IP address of the device that I just connected with the Wi-Fi manager which is where my configuration page rest how do I get to that automatically without having to type in the IP address in a browser

Use mdns hostname.local

[athleticmistud]

cant use the .local need to use the ip address that gets assigned to the board by the router. how do you get out of the captive and auto launch a browser with the ip??

you cannot click links in a captive portal.. so I have no idea what you mean.

[athleticmistud]

I'm trying to figure out a way to force out captive portal of iOS and open safari instead, after I save my WiFi settings. I've managed to alter the standard lib a little so it gets the IP of the AP and server.send before closing the STA. Problem is, if captive portal does not detect a success response from internet it does not allow me to open a link or move automatically to Safari browser. the idea behind this is to get automatically redirected to the boards IP address after the AP connects

Afaik the captive portal is sandboxed, you cannot do anything but open local pages in captive window

[athleticmistud]

ok so how can i do the connection with the wifimanager, then i have a confirmation page that shows the ip address for them is there a way to then open a browser from there? i can long press and it opens the window is there a way to do that automatically? the .local is not reliable enough so i need to use the ip to acces the board. how else could i do this ?

“As far as I know”

[tablatronix]

You can show the url and the user has to open it in a browser by copying it etc
