I have a 2ghz Intel Core Duo 13"Aluminum Macbook running 10.5.8.
Over the Thanksgiving I flew on Airtran Airlines which offers GoGo Wifi inflight.
I had no problem connecting my iPhone to the Wifi network, but I could not get my Macbook to connect. All you have to do is open up your browser and sign up. My Airport was connected to the correct network.
Problem is no matter what browser I used (Firefox, Safari on the Mac OS or IE using Parallels Desktop) I would get the Problem with Server message and would never get to the sign up page.

I run Peer Guardian, Tor, and Little Snitch, but I made sure none of these programs were running in the background.

The girl next to me on the plane had a Macbook and connected with no problem.

I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem. It really frustrated me.

Thanks for any help/advice in advance!!
