Dear Raghu,
Briefly tested the updated Beta firmware (3.8.3.11), connected to the FB enabled ESSID, get prompted in the captive window (OK on Windows (Chrome), Chromebook (Chrome), and macOS (Safari). Once authenticated, the WAC730 Web UI is normally reachable. Will have to wait at least one hour until the authentication does expire. Then (or more tomorrow) we will try if the "normal" management ESSID does still require the authentication.
The access to the WAC730 admin Web UI is fine again the other day, no more forced FB logins on accessing it. Thank you again for taking care!

Thanks. Will check and update
