Connect to a captive portal
A captive portal might be used by your Wi-Fi host for authentication or for
payment to access the Internet. When connecting to some Wi-Fi access
points, such as in a coffee shop, a hotel or an airport, the notification for
a captive portal sometimes appears. This means that to connect to this
Wi-Fi access point, you must first go to a special Internet page, known as
a captive portal, before you can connect to the Internet.
To connect to a captive portal:
1 Tap at the bottom of the screen and then tap the notification
Captive Portal Detected on WiFi.
TIP You can also open Wi-Fi by opening the connection menu, tapping Wi-Fi
and tapping Wi-Fi Preferences.
