Hey all,
Let me know of this has happened to you. I will join a network with a generic name at the gym, for example, and if I happen to go somewhere else that has a network with the same name, my phone will auto connect to it even though the pass key is different or I have to accept an agreement on a webpage to connect.
This has caused me to go for hours without active data because I didn't realize that my phone hopped on a network without internet access rights. You would think that there was a way for the phone to ping the internet to check if there is an 'active' internet connection.
This being the case, I am hesitant to have my phone auto connect to networks...
Any thoughts?
