My university has Wi-Fi all over campus, however, I can't use it. The problem is that the university redirects you to their login webpage after the connection is established if you are using a laptop or other. However, my Opera browser on my Nokia 9500 does not redirect me, therefore, I can't get to the webpage to login. I have tried copying the webpage when I am using a laptop and typing that in the 9500's web address bar, but it does not work. Any suggestions?

I also have the same problem with you and i have been searching the web for solution. The only solution i found is "Wait for the next firmware update from Nokia and hoping they will update the opera too"

I use Tmobile hotspots all the time and they redirect for logon as well. You might try getting the URL of the redirect and just having a bookmark to point you there so you can logon.

In the web broswer,

Tools Menu, Settings,

Under Services, 'Enable automatic redirection' Is it set to Yes?

Hope that helps,
