Re: [WISPA] Redirect clients
Most of the billing systems will do this (ours will!), but barring that, you could use the web proxy with some firewall rules to do it in a MT router.

Re: [WISPA] Redirect clients
The term for this is 'Captive Portal'. You regularly see this where internet access is paid for on-demand for a period of time (airport, hotel, airplane, etc.). Most commercial ISP billing systems have this functionality built in today. It is either done by intercepting HTTP or DNS requests. Wikipedia has a relatively complete list of software options if you don't have an in-house option today (check with your vendor): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captive_portal#Software_captive_portals Todd -- *{ *name : *Todd Mitchell*, company : Mobile Conduct Inc., title: Founder, phone: +1.646.484.8080, location : Houston, TX, timezone : [GMT -6, Central US], web : [mobileconduct.com]*}* On Wed, May 14, 2014 at 3:23 PM, ~NGL~ n...@ngl.net wrote: How can I redirect slow pay clients to a Pay your bill web site.

Nat rules work as long as you have an ip. If it is a url you will need Web proxyunless this has changed recently.
