Hello again!
I'm trying to redirect all users on my network onto one captive portal by using iptables like this:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d 192.168.1.1 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d 192.168.1.114 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.1.114:80
This should redirect every HTTP address to 192.168.1.114, except for:
- 192.168.1.1 (router gateway)
- 192.168.1.114 (surfing to the portal doesn't need redirection to itself)
Now, when I try to access a random HTTP website, it simply just times out.
YES, I have tried to access 192.168.1.114 (the captive portal/server) from another device (which works)
YES, I have tried to access 192.168.1.1 from another device (which also works)
The server is accessible, it's something about the 3rd iptable rule is my guess, but I just can't figure it out.
I have also tried port 443 for HTTPS, but no succes either. They all time out as well.
Thanks in advance for helping me out!
Edit: I've come to a conclusion that perhaps when the server replies, the router shits itself because it doesn't know where the original packet came from after it was rerouted?
