[Q]Wifi hotspot program that can force a webpage to users? - General Questions and Answers

I 'm looking for a Wifi hotspot app for android that allows me to push a webpage I am hosting with the with the PAWs android webserver app webpage to people who connect(when they open their web browser).
Does such an app exist?

I am curious as well. There must be a sort of method that forces users to be redirected to a webpage when connecting to the hotspot.

Recommended App: Droid VNC Server

Stumbled on it while searching for the opposite, a VNC viewer. Works great. Lets you control your android from any computer using either a VPN client or from a browser. The app provides both a VNC IP address and a url to visit if you just want to use a browser
I've tried another product that was like MyMobiler (windows only) and it was ok but you couldn't interact with the phone.
Droid VNC server is an actual vnc server, what else is there to say. Very happy with this free app. And this is just a recommendation, I'm not affiliated with the dev or anything.
Wishlist for the app:
• I wish I could trigger teh server to start with a passphrase in a text message.
• Wish I could SHARE the IP address in a press or two so I could email or sms it to somebody so they dont have to type it in. I also can't copy it, that would be second best. (well I can copy it using CopyPasteIt but unless you have that app you can't)
I cant get it to work

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You could setup Tasker to handle this.
I stumbled on WebKey that seems to do the same thing as this. Cool and free app, but you have to be rooted... but who's not. lol

[Q] Save Login Credentials for WiFi Splash Page

Hi, my university (California State University, Long Beach in case you know it) has a splash page (BeachNet) for its campus-wide WiFi network. The page requires you to log in and prevents you from saving the username and password via (I'm guessing here) autocomplete=off.
Is there a way to get around this limitation via the Android Browser (or any other browser)? The page does not have to stay open, you must just login once. Disconnecting and reconnecting even works w/o re-entering credentials.
Does anyone know how to force the browser to save log-in information?
Edit: Being able to open the page, it's basically something like secure.arubanetworks.com/login.cgi&ip=10.0.0.0&mac=4d:7e etc. So it looks like the mac address and ip address are used as part of the URL identifier. I suppose that this would mean the browser would see them as separate pages. Hope this helps!
Check out firefox beta for (i guess) android?
It supports saving account + password. Works very well for me.
it didn't show up in the market (do i need a market hack/fix?), so i got the latest Fennec build from Mozilla FTP. Unfortunately, that didn't work.

Setting browser proxy on non-rooted Android

I am planning to develop an app which will proxy the web pages viewed by the user in the browser on Android. From reading on teh web I understand that in current Android versions it is impossible to run an app that will get ALL the HTTP requests from all the apps and proxy them, without roting the phone.
But if I only want the HTTP traffic from the browser to go through my app, not from any generic app, can I do that without rooting the phone? It is important that everyday users will be able to download the app from the Market and run it without root

[Q] How to route all traffic from a single app via a proxy server?

There's a single app on my S3 which I'd like to configure so it accesses the Internet only via a certain SOCKS5 proxy server (while all other apps continue to access the Internet directly.)
I've tried ProxyDroid which allows setting a proxy on a per-app basis, but it has some serious downsides and overheads, so I'm looking for a different solution.
How can I set up, without a dedicated app such as ProxyDroid, all traffic from a specific app to go through the proxy?
From browsing through the ProxyDroid source code, I imagine one option would be to modify the iptables directly from the terminal as root. What would be the command for that? As it seems to require some uid of the app, how would I find out that uid?
Also, it would be great if the solution to this can be constructed in a way that can be used via a DroidWall custom script.
Many thanks.

i need an app

I need and app that allows me to see web connections on phones on my network like what a certain IP"connected to my WiFi" is browsing
App that allow you to see web connection
Not only an app, you are supposed to be having a paid firewall. It is having a network flow panel which will let you know how many devices are connected with your IP address and what http packets they are accessing.
Or if you are having a client server topology, then server logs can easily tell you which user is viewing what.
Even there are free tool for checking ip address-
1) Microsoft Network Monitor
2) Nagios
3) OpenNMS
4) Advance IP Scanner
you can also try "Norton Family" when you first register you have 30 days of trial for free.
Csploit does achieve this I believe, and you can also intercept other people's browsing.Though, you should be really careful when using it and you should really know what all the functions do. I do not recommend you using it, but if it is a one time quicky then sure.
