How it works here is not quite what you are saying. The wireless connecion is auto detectedand then the connecion is established when I select connect. It's only when I open the web browser in windows my homepage seeting is somhow ignored and insead the login page for Panera coffee shop pops up. I hen click the login buton and a second panera page appears. Only atfer that second page appears can I succesfully go to my homepage. Is there a way I can record the traffic as I log in on windows to send you guys for a look? Maybe one of you would recocnize the command ha makes he web browser ignore its home page setting? Could i be that the default homepage on Ub is an offline page so the process is not triggered when opening the web brouser at the coffee shop? I'm up in a forest wih only a small town which has no Panera coffee shop so I can't try it till Monday... I reported this because it's a litle embarrassing to show off a "better system than windows" and have the firs step (ataching to wireless internet) be so clunky with cut and pasing of adresses hat I could only get by using windows.

NM only knows that it's connected to an AP, and that IP address assignment has happened... In essence, what you're suggesting is that when a user connects to an access point protected by a proxy requiring login, that the system automatically start a web browser, forcing the login screen to display right away.
