Can't Get the Captive Portal to Load?

Can't Get the Captive Portal to Load?

Follow these steps to capture the portal URL and send it to our support team.


Step 1: Connect to the WiFi Network

On your device, connect to the WiFi network as normal.


Step 2: Stay Connected Without Internet

When prompted, tap "Use Without Internet" (or similar) to stay connected to the network.

  • On iPhone: tap "Use Without Internet" in the connection prompt

  • On Android: tap "Stay Connected" or "Use This Network As Is"


Step 3: Open Your Browser and Visit neverssl.com

Once connected, open your browser (Safari on iPhone, Chrome on Android) and go to:

www.neverssl.com

This page will attempt to trigger the captive portal. If it doesn't load the portal, that's okay — we still need the URL from your browser.


Step 4: Copy the URL

Once the page has loaded (or tried to load), copy the full URL from your browser's address bar.

It may look something like: http://1.2.3.4/login?...


Step 5: Send It to Support

Disconnect from the WiFi network, then send the copied URL to our support team:

📧 support@captivewifi.io

Include the name of the venue or network you were trying to connect to, and we'll investigate straight away.
