Hey Jake,

Thanks for that, I didn’t get the picture from the first time ;)
Yes, your way is much better and less headache to the WLC.

The next thing I should find out now is how to remove all the registration 
blanks "username..name...last name...email..etc.." and keep only the mobile 
phone.

Thanks again.

For CWA, you need to put the MAC address into a guest endpoint group.

Then, if the endpoint is in guest endpoint group, just put them on instead of 
the portal.

Way easier than LWA + sleeping client.
