I'm testing out the SecureBlue distro, the concept is very cool and I am still learning my ways around it. Anyhow, SecureBlue came with its own hardened browser: Trivalent. It is great and coming from GrapheneOS on my phone, this feels like at home.
But... how the heck do you force a wifi portal to appear when you connect to pubic wifis like malls and hotels? I understand public wifi is not safe but thats another problem. I just want to know how to get online while travelling.
What i tried:
-
go to 1.1.1.1 or neverssl.com like some sites suggested. Nothing happens
-
use my phone wifi hotspot to download firefox. Then unharden firefox via some flags (otherwise firefox wouldnt run). Finally, connect to hotel wifi and use firefox to open the login portal.
-
on sway, obviously nothing happened because its so minimal. .But on the gnome flavor, you can see a pop up to sign in. .On a normal distro, clicking that would open the portal. On this one, it doesnt work.
Any other suggestions? Some dns setting ? Unharden trivalent?
I understand you can use whatever browser you want on Linux, but because Trivalent is hardened i prefer to use just one. Like on Graphene with Vanadium.
Appreciate any inputs.
