Of course you need to replace those domains with some of your own choice, I use my own server with a bit of nginx configuration to provide this functionality: server { listen 80; listen [::]:80 ipv6only=on; server_name captive.example.org; # Apple CNA location /hotspot-detect.html { return 200 '<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Success</TITLE></HEAD><BODY>Success</BODY></HTML>'; add_header Content-Type text/html; } # Apple CNA location /library/test/success.html { return 200 '<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>Success</TITLE></HEAD><BODY>Success</BODY></HTML>'; add_header Content-Type text/html; } # ChromeOS, Android location /generate_204 { return 204; } # Windows location /ncsi.txt { return 200 'Microsoft NCSI'; } location / { return 302 http://www.example.org/; } }
