Captive portal no longer appears after macOS update (26.0.1 — 25A362)

Hello Apple Support,


After updating my Mac to 26.0.1 (25A362), I can no longer connect to some Wi-Fi networks that require a captive-portal login. Specifically, on the network “WiFi Sorbonne Université” (not eduroam), the login banner/page no longer pops up, so I can’t enter my username and password. This worked normally before the update.

Could you advise on a fix or known issue for this build?


Thank you,

Ksenia

You should start your own thread rather than tag onto an older thread that may or may not be the same issue as you are experiencing. If your issue is no captive login page, open your browser then type 1.1.1.1 into the address url field.

You are suggesting to duplicate posts on the forum for the same exact issue? What next? They will tell me to use the search button to not full fil the forum with duplicates...this is against the common forum rules. This function is broken in the current OS version. Your solution, like the others I found online and tried so far did not solve the issue. Thank you.

OK. The OP was Nov 4 and a reply was provided. There were no subsequent posts by the OP so I assume the provided response Nov 4 worked. If the response did not solve your issue it may be that you have a different problem. I was only trying to make your question/issue more visible thereby getting more responses directed directly to you. But if you would prefer to stay in an old thread that appears solved, go for it.
