Hey Guys, I'm at a coffee shop right now. Panera in Kalamazoo, MI, USA. Toshiba Laptop Satellite A205-S5804 with mem upgrade to 2Gb.
Starting from Windows. The wireless network is automatically recognized with tray icon indicating www conection. I start Internet explorer and instead of my google search home page this one appears: http://paneralogin6.wanderingwifi.com/login After clicking the login button the next page is: http://www.panerabread.com/wifi/connected/home.php?bc=3724&pid=1 After that I can click the home button to get to my home page. Restarting Windows and using Google Chrome gave the same results with the exception of an error report for the missing Adobe Flash plugin. Clicking "login" got me to the second page and on to www. I then downloaded Firefox for windows ver 3.5.7. During install I said no to make firefox the defaul and clicked import nothing from user settings. After installation I said yes to start firefox and it was able to go on the web directly without going through the panera login. (I included the above step to show there must be some authentication of the computer rateher than the broser from the login process" After restarting Windows again I launched Firefox. This took me to the panera loging. Clicking "login" button brought me to the 2nd panera page and then I was able to go into www. Next I will try using the Freshly installed Ubuntu 9.10 with all updates ( as of morning 21Jan10) installed as dual boot on the internal HD. --- On Wed, 1/20/10, Vish <drkv...@yahoo.com> wrote: From: Vish <drkv...@yahoo.com> Subject: [Bug 492349] Re: Connecting at public WiFi when using bootable pen drive To: arts...@yahoo.com Date: Wednesday, January 20, 2010, 12:00 PM @artsci2 : I'm marking bug incomplete for now.
