It won't load any pages unless I use 4G (and I'm already too close to my data limit for that).
I downloaded several apps that claim to help with this problem. The only one that "worked" was Cedric Ho's Wifi Brower :Login. However it only worked the first time. Now it is acting like before I even installed it. I tried several other apps including one by Wolke that just spammed me with a weird website. None of them got me on the internet. I have tried installing and uninstallling the one that worked once. I've tried forgetting the network. I've tried rebooting the phone. I still can't get on with the phone.
As you can imagine the hotel staff, while quite nice and apologetic, know less than I do about this problem. Anyone know What do I do now?
SOLVED: Had the same problem. Called the hotel wifi help desk, they took me through all the troubleshooting steps, then referred me to a tier2 callback, but kept working on it while waiting. Never did get that call.
1. Click on the wifi ssid
2. Forget connection
3. Re connect
4. Open Chrome (no splash screen to enter password.)
5. Push the forward navigation arrow.
6. Splash screen appears, enter your password and other info needed by hotel
