** IMPORTANT **
In order to complete this setup, "Radius Accounting" server options are to be enabled in your Meraki Dashboard.
Please contact your Meraki Support specialists to have this option enabled if this is not the case.
Step 1:
Open a web browser and log in to your Meraki dashboard at https://dashboard.meraki.com
Click on "Acces Control" on the left menu
Configure with these settings
scroll down to "RADIUS for splash page"
Click "Add a Server" and enter the settings below
Host: 87.233.181.54
Port: 1812
Secret: sowifihotspots
Note: When you enter the radius server you may see and error: "Host for RADIUS is not a valid IP address." This is an expected error message, the field prefers an IP address but will still work with a domain name in this field.
Click "Add a Server" again and enter the settings below
Host: 87.233.181.55
Port: 1812
Secret: sowifihotspots
Set RADIUS accounting to "RADIUS accounting enabled"
Click "Add a Server" and add the settings below
Host: 87.233.181.54
Port: 1813
Secret: sowifihotspots
Click "Add a Server" again and add the settings below
Host: 87.233.181.55
Port: 1813
Secret: sowifihotspots
Note: You may not see the option to set up the RADIUS accounting. If this is the case please raise a Meraki support case via Help -> Cases -> New Case asking them: "Please can you enable RADIUS accounting on my account"
Note 2: The Meraki MX/Z1 does not support accounting, so please skip this step.
Step 4:

Also make sure that `Enable data-carrier detect?` is not enabled as it will have your clients need to reauthenticate every time they de-associate.
Copy and paste the list below

- ssl.google-analytics.com
