I am connected to the hotel wifi network, but the login screen does not appear.

Hi,

I am connected to my hotel wifi network, but the login screen does not appear. I am able to access the login page on my PC, but on the iPhone it does not appear and just tries to connect to the webpage (e.g. google.co.uk), and eventually gives up. I've tried opening pages in Safari and Chrome, but none cause the login screen to appear. I have also tried trying to log into the login page that the PC opens when connected to the wifi, but the same thing happens. I am using a iPhone 3G with the latest iOS version 6.0.1.

Is there a way to make the iPhone try to open the login page?

Ben.

iPhone 3GS, iOS 6.0.1

I work at a hotel and this happens to me daily. My fix is to open an incognito tab in my browser and type anything in the url bar. This will force a redirect, but before the login page pops up, it may prompt that you are trying to "visit an unsafe site." At this point you can either view the certificate, or you can select visit the site anyways. You should choose to visit the site anyways, then the hotel login will open. Cheers!

The skype wifi app was the culprit for me. Once I deleted it, I was able to connect to the hotel wifi immediately. Thanks for your help.

What I did to get this working was turn off cellular data and then the wireless web page popped up.
