You can't really do that with proxy authentication methods. Once a
browser has successfully authenticated, it remembers that - so even if
you flush the server cache, all that happens is the browser sends the
cached credentials it has and the server revalidates: the user doesn't
even know it's happened

The only way I can think of that will serve your purposes is to move to
a "portal" solution instead. ie don't use proxy authentication - instead
block Internet and redirect port 80 requests to a captive portal, force
people to login there, then that action whitelists their Internet access
for the next 'n' minutes, after that time expires, they are pushed back
to the portal page again

...but that will require a different product - something like pfsense
comes to mind
