How can I forget a hotel wifi network?
I spent 1 1/2 hours on the phone with apple support and they were not able to help me. I hope someone here can help me with this.
On a macbook pro w/Yosemite
I am logged into a hotels wifi. It is the type of thing where you ling to the network, they forward yo to a web page, you accept their user agreement, select their free basic or select to pay for higher speed. Upon selecting the basic internet, you enter the code the hotel gave you and you are signed in. Any subsequent times to select their wifi or auto select, you are automatically logged in. This is what I did.
Well, the hotel basic is incredibly slow so I want to change and pay for higher speed internet. The issue is I can't get rid of the automatic login to basic. I did the following, some before, during, and after the apple support call:
Network preferences - advanced - forget network
erased all keychain saved passwords an keys
deleted all saved wifi networks
deleted web history
deleted cache
deleted cookies
deleted several other things as directed by support
emptied recycle bin
emptied secure recycle bin
restarted after each.
There is literally no saved settings or passwords left. I go to select the network, select it, it automatically logs me in to basic. Why does it not just go to the web page if all is deleted?
Apple support gave up and said it was the hotels issue (have you tried talking to the hotel desk staff about something like this?). I asked the hotel if they could reset the code, they said no. It expires in 30 days.
Same thing also happens on my iPhone and iPad.
It seems that their server is remembering my addresses and automatically signing in. How can I stop this?
Any suggestions?
Thank you,
