Thank you all very much.
We have indeed resolved our issue by
- removing the secure redirect to the captive portal and
- changing the url for the packetfence system to a .net site
everything is now working well.
I thank you all very much for your support, feedback and clear
explanations.
Met vriendelijke groet, With kind regards,
*Ron Peeters*
