Public WiFi
I can’t log on to public wifi because the phone will not automatically take me to the login page - been trying to work out what is wrong for a couple of years but now with increased travel am finding it a real pain.

Nowadays, Public Wi-Fi is offered for free, in big cities, shopping centers, in Public Transport (bus & train), airport, restaurants and others.
That depends on where you live and where you are.
If you are in a hotel, ask the hotel for a username & password to log in to their Wi-Fi.

Worked it out - did a complete phone reset which deleted my access to my work emails in outlook - the settings linked to the business VPN wouldn’t allow the device to access public (shared) wifi … everything works now … I don’t have the same issue with an older iPhone - so will carry 2 phones until I can work out the best way forward
The login page is enforced by the Router/Modem. An iPhone has nothing to do with it.
