Hello,
There is a wifi offered on my camping site. The signal is very good and the network works perfectly on my iPod and android phone; it's not the case with my playbook!
To get access, we have to connect to an open wifi and then, we have to log on on a web page in the browser. The issues are :
1- Sometimes the log on page appears by itself and I'm able to enter my user and pwd. When I click on confirm, I got a confirmation with the blackberry logo : device now connected...or something similar. I'm able to use it to visit few pages but after a few minutes, the webpage are not longer available (no error message, just a page loading, loading, loading...and finnaly, not opening.
2- Sometimes I don't get directed to the log on webpage and I'm not able to connect (I see a little red ''star'' next to the network''.
You are right, I have to enter a password via the browser but unfortunately, sometimes I'm not directed to the login page. Sometimes I'm able to enter the password and Internet could work for few minutes but after a few diffrente pages...nothing!
Try using another browser. Simple Browser and Dolphin are available in app world, and Skyfire, Maxthon, android Browser and Opera Mini are available for sideloading.
