Hi there, I am wondering if I can use an iPhone to share the hotspot and then bring anyone joined the network to my website immediately?

Hello,

You cannot host hotspotsystem on an iphone. You should use a router from the compatibility list: http://www.hotspotsy...=7842-RSKB-3174

alternately you can also use a PC running Linux:  http://hotspotsystem...=1095-UDJV-7849

You can configure the hotspot to redirect users to your website that you can use as a splash page, or just redirect them after they log in.

Also, you cannot share a wi-fi connection via wi-fi.

You can only share a cellular data network (3g).

There are several 3G routers you can use which are compatible with Hotspotsytem:  The Buffalo G300NHv2, certain Cradlepoint routers and the ASus n16.
