I was implementing Social Hotspot with RouterOS and a simple Garden, I had problems with facebook ips, MikroTik have great and cheap Routers, RouterOS is great, but OpenWRT have an stronger community. I was trying to implement your script, I have TP-Link/Cisco with DD-WRT/OpenWRT but in both I had space problem (4MB ROM). Does it still works? Which devices did you test it? I'll try it on a MikroTik with 64MB. It might be interesting, that community posts compatible devices, and requeriments like OpenWRT with minimum 8MB. I wanna test it and make a nice template with bootstrap (Do you have screenshots?) Great Work!

@agustindev > If I understand well the purpose of fbwlan, it is an auth server for wifidog, meaning you can run it on your router, but it is more probably designed to run on a web server.

If you really want to run everything on a router, MikroTik RB951 serie could suit your needs. Also, check for how to use a USB key as a chroot/overlay with OpenWrt.

@databeille is exactly right: you run wifidog-gateway on your OpenWrt box. fbwlan lives on an external webserver.

Note that the README is a bit out of date. On recent OpenWrt + wifidog releases, you no longer need to add firewall rules yourself or monkey around with the init script. Creating the ipset yourself is still necessary, however. Pull request welcome!

Great! Ill try to implement it with external USB storage to avoid the server. Im also working on a MITM proxy ads injector router side, it could be used as an insistent way of rating. Thanks!
