Abstract

See full text

One method for allowing and controlling access to an open WLAN network is through the use of a secure website such as a Hotspot or Captive Portal landing page that the device must “log in” to in order to have access to the network. Credentials for a Captive Portal or Hotspot landing page (or other websites) are conventionally managed by a browser application and stored in a browser data storage space. According to some aspects of the disclosure, an electronic device obtains credentials for a website, such as a Captive Portal or Hotspot landing page. The credentials are stored in a network settings space on the electronic device. The credentials may be stored in a WLAN profile. The device may automatically log in to a webpage using the credentials, which may facilitate seamless connectivity.
