Thats a very strange "network". A /24 doesn't start at 155. Is that the client IP or the range you've put into the Admin interface?

This is my setup

LAN IP Address 192.165.0.155
Subnet 255.255.255.0
LAN Network : 192.165.0.0/24
DHCP Start from : 101 to 150
Wifi AP 1 : IP Address 192.165.0.201/Subnet 255.255.255.0/ Gateway 192.165.0.155/DNS 4.2.2.2
Wifi AP 2 : IP Address 192.165.0.202/Subnet 255.255.255.0/ Gateway 192.165.0.155/DNS 4.2.2.2

Assign IP Address to Mobile Device through Grase Range from 192.165.0.101 to 150.

Thanks

Ah.

The problem is you are assigning public IP addresses, not private IP addresses.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network#Private_IPv4_address_spaces

192.165.0.0/24 isn't a private address, you could potentially conflict with a real IP address on the internet. By default, we only allow private IP's to ensure we don't accidentally use public IP's.

Also, you should probably follow normal networking convention. Don't put your gateway in the middle of an IP range

$ sipcalc 192.165.0.0/24

-[ipv4 : 192.165.0.0/24] - 0

[CIDR]

Host address - 192.165.0.0

Host address (decimal) - 3232038912

Host address (hex) - C0A50000

Network address - 192.165.0.0

Network mask - 255.255.255.0

Network mask (bits) - 24

Network mask (hex) - FFFFFF00

Broadcast address - 192.165.0.255

Cisco wildcard - 0.0.0.255

Addresses in network - 256

Network range - 192.165.0.0 - 192.165.0.255

Usable range - 192.165.0.1 - 192.165.0.254

You can see that the range starts at .1 and goes t0 .254. Ideally you should put your Gateway (Grase Server) on either of those IP's.

I recommend you use the defaults, 10.1.0.0/24 with 10.1.0.1 as the Grase server IP.

I Will Change my Network as you recommented

Thanks Tim

That's a very strange network; 192.165.0.0/24! Not sure what you are trying to achieve but you sure aren't following the rules for networking...
But this error "ERROR

The requested URL could not be retrived
The Following eror was encountered while trying to retrive the URL : http Website
Access Denied

Access Control Configuration prevents your request from being allowed at this time. Please contact your service provider if your feel this is incorrect" will be fun to understand

Henry,

The error comes from squid as the default settings are to only allow access from the private IP address ranges. As that IP isn't in the private range it blocks access.
