I have a question about the PS4.
I'm on a campsite with public Wi-Fi.
When I connect to this Wi-Fi with my cell phone, a website opens where I can log in. Then I register and only then do I have Internet. That means, without registration there's no internet.
I have already connected to the PS4 and the connection test was unsuccessful, but I was connected to the Wi-Fi.
My question is:
Can I also use the PS4 to log into the public Wi-Fi as I do with my mobile phone? Is there a way?
I hope it works somehow.
Otherwise I took my PS4 with me for free.
Did you take it with you for free, because the connection would not be sufficient for gaming anyway, even if it worked.
Second, when you go camping, what is the console for?
Third, it is not advisable to establish trusting connections through such a connection
This works out. You only have to open the web browser on the PS4, then enter the web address or the verification link of the local Wi-Fi or any http address (no https!) And then proceed exactly as on the mobile phone.
OK I will try! I'll answer you right away
It may be that before you go to the PS4 web browser, you have to do a connection test with the PS4 again and then you can only go into the browser after the test has failed.
It says:
Communication via SSL not possible.
The console is at e.g. Useful in bad weather. I know this is not advisable, but the first thing I did was connect my PS4 to the hotspot on my phone and it didn't go well.
What now?
That's what I said, it can't be an https: page… If you have the hotel login page in your browser, delete the S from https: so that it only says http and try again.
I don't know the address, unfortunately the page. But no matter what I enter, it always says: Communication via SSL is not possible. I'm not that good at this, that's why I asked the question
If you don't know the address of the page, then you have to ignore the network on your smartphone again, then dial it again, then you will be automatically connected to the login page. You have to copy this link.
I figured out the url. It works!
I'm glad. Never mind.
Wi-Fi networks are never the best choice for gaming and public means even less because of the not exactly stable connection.
Just offline when playing and Fortnite won't run away, don't worry 😆😆😆
