Problem: Connecting to WiFi that has an authentication web page

This happens before the local display is activated...

I think these systems generally give the client an IP address, but it is isolated until authentication happens. So, I can configure it with the correct SSID, it should get an IP address, and when the local display comes up I should be able to hit the authentication screen.

That's a lot of shoulds, but it is worth a try.

Thanks!
