Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I upgraded My MacBook Pro’s operating system to CATALINA.
After upgrade, I can connect WiFi, BUT Safari or Chrome Can’t connect to the server. I can’t use internet.
How to solve this problem? Please help me !

Hello, please see my post here:

Please try to reboot your MacBook into Safe Mode (holding the shift key on boot). If the Captive Portal appears it is likely a 3rd party application that is interfering with the Network Stack.
When you reload you PC back into Normal Mode you should be connected, however that doesn't necessarily mean it is fixed. This is because you have just gone through the captive portal process i.e. Accept T&Cs in Safe Mode for that day. Then after a certain period the Captive Portal may expire your session. you will need to complete the Captive Portal process again and hence it will no longer work.
So the real fix is check for applications installed that could interfere with the Network Stack such as a VPN client i.e. Cisco VPN Client or even possibly an Anti-Virus Scanner.
I’ve found that since 10.15.2 mine now works perfectly fine
Only 2? They are pretty useless. They act as though they have never heard fo this problem. They told me to goo to the front desk....
I solved the connection to WiFi problem after upgrading to Catalina by disconnecting my NordVPN
All you have to do is update Catalina and problem is solved. It was a known issue apple put in their upgrade but wont really admit they did anything wrong.
Removed old Intego software; problem solved.
If your WiFi icon is grayed out, try this solution: https://kozyatnikov.com/mac-os-x-catalina-wifi-not-working-fix

It worked perfectly, just had to restart my Mac after creating the new location but finally can use my Mac again! Thank you!
Sophos works with Catalina.
I tried this method and it did not work. When I created a new network location, I was unable to connect to the WiFi Network at all.
Safari and Chrome can’t connect to the server after Catalina update
