I was trying to connect To hospital WiFi and it didn’t give me the WiFi logging page to click submit terms and agreement but my iPad always does..

On the iPhone it shows connected to WiFi and shows LTE after two to three minutes show the WiFi logo and no logging screen and no terms and conditions what can be the problem it did this at star bucks too ?

I did reset all network setting and rebooted my iPhone and forget all network.


Once it showed the WiFi logo WiFi worked without terms and condition page.
 
For me, next think would be a restart followed by reset network settings.
I did that’s but I found a fix I did forget network then reconnected I show connected to WiFi no WiFi logo then I went to safari it showed the logging thing and when I forget net work in setting I had to logging page pop after I went to safari then back to WiFi in setting it showed up.

This is not a real fix it should pop up automatically when I click the network

It only happens in public WiFi two places I tried strange how apple was able to run diagnostic at apple store and my home WiFi works fine

iPhones will do that sometimes. It will either fix itself or you can force the reset. The issue with iPhones is that there is zero troubleshooting for them, it's either a full reset, a full replacement etc.

It’s down to how the access points are configured. Also don’t forget Keychain data gets synced via iCloud. That’s why you don’t need to type in WiFi passwords if one of your devices connected to the same network earlier.
 
I routinely see this issue with captive portals across all of my iOS devices for several years now.

After you join the wireless access point you just need to open a browser (safari, chrome, edge, etc) and try to browse to a new, non-cached url. Any one — dell.com, psu.edu, etc.

And it will trigger the captive portal splash every time. Then once you log in or more commonly just “Accept” the terms you’re good to go and data starts flowing to all of your apps.

In the past I’ve had issues with Skype Wi-Fi and Boingo getting connected. But nowadays with unlimited data an mobile hotspots I don’t use these services anymore

It shows connected but no WiFi signal after a second or two shows the signal and no WiFi logging page strange do you have a better resolution when I took it to apple for different issue on Sunday day diagnostic passed
