[AFMUG] Mikrotik Hotspot pages

[Nate Burke]

I have a site that is using Mikrotik Hotspot for a disclaimer/TOS page.  
It has been in place for years, and it hasn't been broke, so I haven't 
fixed it, (ROS v5.0rc3).  The AP hardware has been upgraded, currently 
running ruckus XI-3 AP's.  Recently I'm hearing from the site about once 
a week that someone is either unable to accept the terms, or they accept 
the terms, it works for a few seconds then they get kicked off.  
Unfortunately there is nobody technical at the site, so tracking down 
exactly what is really happening is hard.  Every time I'm on site, I can 
connect/disconnect with my laptop/droid with no issues.  Have there been 
changes made to the Mikrotik hotspotting that would help newer devices 
connect or stay connected?  Reading through the Change Logs, it looks 
like Mac-Cookie was added in 6.0, but that seems to help when an actual 
login is required, nothing else jumped out as a big change.

Is there a better/different method for a simple 'click here to accept 
the terms' solution?
