An Ubuntu WiFi Secure Captive Portal

Improvements, suggestions & fixes are welcome!

Captive portals can be a pain. Here's an opinionated and no-doubt entirely imperfect guide to setting one up for a WiFi access point on Ubuntu (tested on 20+), utilising Network Manager, DNSMasq, HA Proxy and (optionally) Let's Encrypt for a secure, locally hosted landing page.

_Note: This setup was originally designed for an offline WLAN, providing access to a small number of locally hosted domains ... think the WiFi media portal on a flight or boat. If you are looking to provide internet access behind a captive portal then this guide won't get you all the way there. That said, many routers have this capability built in, as do any number of open source router firmware solutions. So you probably don't need to roll your own. If you'd like to try anyway, Ha Proxy Stick Tables would probably come in handy. Very happy to update the guide with any p

This guide is designed for people like myself who seem to find all guides on LetsEncrypt reverse proxies to be like this or any of this

This will cover portainer setup and eventually standarderd CLI only setup

With Portainer

0. Get onto Linux system
1. Install docker-ce
2. Install Portainer

How to create an HTTPS certificate for localhost domains

This focuses on generating the certificates for loading local virtual hosts hosted on your computer, for development only.

Do not use self-signed certificates in production ! For online certificates, use Let's Encrypt instead (tutorial).
