Use router to set default homepage for network.

Is there a way to make your router pop up a home page just like a hotel?

 

I think this might work for you: http://www.instructables.com/id/URL-Redirect-Prank-using-dd-wrt/

It requires a linksys wrt router with the hacked firmware and open dns. Else, i think you will need a professional cisco router to do this.

 

I don't think that's what mechrock is looking to do. I believe the OP is looking for an initial page to open automatically when someone first opens a browser, which isn't possible with residential routers, AFAIK.

 

Yeah, I am trying to even think of how to do this on a cisco router ...hmm

 

I thought it was because I was connected to a hotel and if I was right it was a linksys 54g router. And they had there log in redirector thing.

 

If you have multiple computers you can set a group policy with Windows Server. I cant think of any other way other than setting it manually.

 

Hotel internet systems are big business. I'm certain there's more to it than just a router. To the OP - I don't think you'll find any simple solution to your question (costly maybe, but certainly not simple).

 

set up DNS server at your house and all DNS requests go through it.
