#11007 Hi,

what is needed to redirect any HTTP requests to the internal webserver on the esp8266 module when in AP mode?
Some may refer to this as Splash Page as well.
DNS?
best regards

#12192 I've done this on a project with ESP8266.
You will need:
1) DNS server that answers all or a list of domains to the module's ip address ( I got the domains used to detect captive portal by iphone and android phones )
2.) HTTP server that inspects the host header and redirect to a chosen one.
3.) The splash page itself :)
