did any try to run a b4j web application for example on raspberry pi in away configured as captive portal so when access as wifi spot will be directly forwarded to the bj4 web application without needing to worry about the ip address. the procedure is well documented on the internet but will appreciate your input on this issue within b4j

below a link in youtube

You should use dynamic ip solutions such as the solution described here: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/37201/#content

It doesn't matter whether the server runs on a Raspberry Pi or a PC.

usually I use captive portal to market my business offline by giving free wifi to check my locally installed wordpress site in a rpi also some free music during exhibitions, it has to be offline and require many settings to make it work as wifi access point, dynamic online ip solution is not really the solution i am looking for.

captive portal with b4j can open new market to use the wifi, I mean I am working on a project right now with esp8266 as captive portal to save customers info in this cheap chip for automatic logging better than the conventional rfid technologies. embedded linux boards are going below $10 and will go much less and more, an idea will present itself with an affordable in time solutions like your fine tools if possible..
