The MikroTik HotSpot Gateway enables client authentication for public networks with features like DHCP address pools, multiple authentication methods, and walled-garden access. It requires IPv4 and has specific routing limitations, with configuration examples provided for setup.
Customize HotSpot authentication pages by overriding default HTML files stored on the router's FTP server, specifying custom directories via 'html-override-directory' in HotSpot profiles. Choose from predefined pages like login.html, status.html, and logout.html, or create custom ones with variables like $(username) and $(password).
