We use QinQ per customer SVLAN/CVLAN which is easy to set on cambium. If the account isn't valid, radius returns reject to the BNG and the circuit isn't authorized. Never bothered to do a splash page with it but it would be easy enough to put disabled accounts into a routing instance that directed to a splash page. For people who do this, how effective is it? It feels like half our customers don't use their laptops more than occasionally unless they work from home. It's mostile apps on the phone and you need to deliberately go to a http site on a web browser if you want to catch a splash page. Back when we did tons of MDU Wi-Fi we pretty much had someone spending 1/4 of their time keeping up with captive portal stuff to make it work with every new OS / web browser version.
