CaptiveSense

Effectively bypass captive portals client-side via automatic authentication

The goal of CaptiveSense is to automatically detect, identify, and authenticate a client on networks that restrict access via captive portal.

Note

Please note this project is very much a work in progress and really just a proof of concept at this point. This project exists because the guest WiFi at KFLL required clients reauthenticate every hour and I was really bored waiting for my flight.
