** Description changed:

  Hi,
  
  our academic wifi, is protected with authentication practiced with a web
  page. The wifi network looks to be open to anyone, but to operate it
  after having connected the wifi you need to open a web page. This will
  automatically redirect you to an authentication page and after you are
  authenticated you can work on the wifi.
  
  The problem is that with precise you can never get to the authentication
  page, since its url cannot be resolved.
  
  The thing used to work fine with previous ubuntus and works fine with
  Windows.
  
  Thanks in advance for looking into it.
  
  Sergio
