Hi, I would like to protect my home wifi network by using a captive portal or a radius server to enable WPA on my access point. Any hint? What is the easier software to use? I found zeroshell at
Are you looking for a learning exercise or just a means to tie down your AP?
If the latter, doesn't your AP have WPA-PSK? WPA-PSK doesn't use a radius server, but is perfectly fine for the home.
My AP's also support WPA-EAP (Radius), but I'm just using WPA-PSK (AES). One of these days I planned on messing around with it just for the hell of it, but I see no need for it in a home environment...
CP's are (generally) just used to manage, control, and filter open AP's..
You'd be fine with WPA-PSK. I'd be more concerned about WAN traffic. Use a decent firewall...
I know that wpa-psk is very easy to use but I prefer an username and password authentication with e server that logs the accesses. I don't thik an AP is able to do it.
Gotcha.
Take a look at ZoneCD, if you haven't already...
ZoneCD behind a WPA-PSK AP would be much easier than Radius...
