KikiAuth is a LuCI-based OpenWrt application that acts as an alternative auth server for WifiDog, enabling captive-portal authentication via OAuth providers (Google, Facebook, Twitter) directly on the router. The project is explicitly halted due to insurmountable issues with HTTPS-only OAuth providers and dynamic IP-based firewall rules.

Use cases

  • run a captive portal on an OpenWrt router
  • authenticate wifi users via OAuth login
  • replace WifiDog auth server without a separate machine
  • build a splash page wifi hotspot with social login
  • manage firewall rules for guest wifi authentication

When to choose

  • you need a reference implementation of OAuth-based captive portal auth on OpenWrt
  • you want to study LuCI application development or WifiDog integration

When to avoid

  • you need a maintained, production-ready captive portal solution
  • your OAuth provider is HTTPS-only (Facebook, Google) since the approach is unreliable
  • you need ongoing support or bug fixes - the project is halted since 2018
