Set up Tanaza with MyWiFi

What you'll need

• Admin access to the Tanaza Cloud Dashboard (app.tanaza.com)
• A MyWiFi location already created, so you have a splash page URL and a RADIUS shared secret to enter
• Your AP's firmware version — an older firmware release handles login slightly differently (see the note below)

Steps

1. In the Tanaza Cloud Dashboard, open the target network's SSID settings, enable Captive Portal, and choose External Splash Page.
2. Paste your MyWiFi splash page URL into the splash page URL field.
3. On the same SSID, configure the external RADIUS server: enter MyWiFi's RADIUS server IP, port 1812 for authentication and 1813 for accounting, and the shared secret MyWiFi generated for this location.
4. In the MyWiFi dashboard, go to Devices and click Add Device.
5. Select the Location, name the device, and under Select Your Hardware choose Tanaza.
6. Enter your Tanaza connection details as prompted and save.
7. Optionally, set session and idle timeout values in the Tanaza dashboard — or leave them unset and let MyWiFi's RADIUS server supply those values automatically.

Best practice: if any of your access points are running older firmware (1.6.0 or 1.6.1), be aware that Tanaza's login credential field was named differently on those releases than on all current firmware. APs stuck on that old firmware can silently fail to log guests in with no obvious error. Check your firmware version before going live, and update if you're on 1.6.0/1.6.1.
