Login Page for wifi?!?!?!?!

[ttzary]

So you go to a hotel, and they have a unsecure network. You connect thinking, yes, free wifi! No. As soon as you open your browser, it prompts you for a username/ password and to accept their T.O.S. How do you do this?

It is a computer (server), and it has a page that you have to pass before you get permission to connect to the internet. The first connection to the WiFi is made by the router, it gives you the connection between your computer to the server only, after username/password been entered, you will get your access to the internet too.

You'll definitely need the Network Key to login to the network. ,I think it is well protected.
