I have one of these as well (mine is a different but similar model - GL-AR750S-EXT). But I don't travel often enough, I guess. Because every time I go to use it, it's a struggle to get it to work and I typically just give up.
Last weekend I stayed at a Hyatt, and the first thing I did when I got to the room was power it up. But I couldn't for the life of me get the captive portal page to load when I was connected through it. It worked fine connected directly to the hotel's wifi, but through the router - nothing. So I gave up. It wasn't worth the hassle.
- dchuk 4y agowhenever that happens, try going to "example.com" in your browser. that will almost always trigger the captive portal. Also, make sure your router dns settings aren't interfering with the captive portal itself (they hijack your dns and redirect you when they haven't had you login before).
