Cannot connect to kobo site when using hotspot
When I connect my Touch to the Colleges Wifi guest hotspot the Touch connects to a www.apple.com/library/test/success.html address and then freezes instead of connecting to the college server.
I now know the Touch cannot access the colleges login page but I would like to know why it takes me to the apple site? |

I'd guess that someone in the colleges IT dept. is being "clever" with redirects.

Nope, the college server is not responsible for the redirect. My friend who works as a system analysis in the colleges I.T. department and owns a Touch is not sure why this happens.
