Smart WiFi Sharing for Starlink & OpenWrt

Share Your WiFi
Without the Regret

Share your Starlink with the whole campground without blowing through your data plan. Open guest network, captive portal, adaptive speed management — no networking knowledge required.

You Know How It Goes

You're camping and someone walks up: “Hey, can I hop on your WiFi? There's no service out here.” You say yes, share the password — and ten minutes later 14 devices are on your Starlink. One kid fires up YouTube in 4K, someone shares the password with the next site over, and suddenly everything crawls. You're not going to be the guy who says no — but you shouldn't have to upgrade your plan just because you're being generous.

Share WiFi. Make Friends.

Here's the thing — sharing your internet at a campground is actually great. It's how you meet people. “Whose WiFi are you on? Oh cool, we should go say thanks.” Before you know it, someone's bringing you a bag of ice or an extra six pack — because you paid it forward first.

Example captive portal splash message

“Got extra ice? I could use a bag at site 14. Either way — enjoy the internet!”

Fully customizable splash page that guests see when they connect.

Smart Bandwidth, Not Dumb Rules

Dynamic management that adapts to what each guest is actually doing. Not static QoS rules.

Open Network + Captive Portal

No password to hand out or spread around. Guests connect to an open network, hit a quick splash page, enter their name, and they're online. Or add a password if you prefer.

Adaptive Burst Speeds

Each guest is monitored individually. Casual browsing? They get burst speeds. The system only pulls it back when someone starts sustaining heavy bandwidth. Not hurting anything? Browse fast.

Streaming Detection

When someone starts streaming, GuestGate automatically drops their speed after a configurable window just enough to force the player to a lower resolution. They're still watching — just not maxing out your data at 4K.

Daily Quotas

Each guest gets a daily data budget. Hit it and you're slowed, not cut off, for the rest of the day. Resets at midnight. No one streams all day and all night on your dime.

Companion Device Linking

A guest links their phone, tablet, and Roku together. All share one speed pool and one quota. They do it themselves from the status page — no admin needed.

Per-User Overrides

Every setting is adjustable globally and per user. Want to give your buddy faster speeds or a bigger daily quota while keeping everyone else at the default? One tap from your phone.

Works for Your Family Too

This isn't just for guests. Put your own kids on a daily data limit — GuestGate will automatically throttle a high-quality stream down to low-quality, and once they hit the cap, drop them to a really slow speed instead of cutting them off completely. No fights, no pulling the plug.

Under the Hood

MAC randomization? Handled — token cookies keep a guest's identity, session, and companion devices intact across reconnects no matter what their device does with its MAC address. Everything runs locally on your router. No cloud, no account, no iptables, no cron jobs, no Linux networking knowledge needed — just a clean web UI from your phone.
