What is Android Wifi Hotspot Captive Portal?
Android Wifi Hotspot Captive Portal is a feature in Android Lollipop that allows users to connect to the internet through a WiFi network without having to enter their passwords. It works like a regular WiFi hotspot, but once you're connected, you can't use your phone's normal browser or apps. You can only use the captive portal interface to browse the web and access certain web applications.
To use Android Wifi Hotspot Captive Portal, open the Settings app and go to Wireless & networks. Then tap the Wifi hotspot icon. On the next screen, tap the Menu button and choose Captive Portal. You'll see a list of available hotspots. Tap the hotspot you want to use and enter your password. (Android will try to connect automatically if it can find your device.)
Once you're connected, you can browse the web using Google Chrome or any other web browser that supports captive portals. You can also use some web applications that are specifically designed for captive portals, such as Amazon's Kindle Fire Web Browser and Microsoft's Internet Explorer 11 for Windows 8.1 and 10.

How to Login to an Android Wifi Hotspot Captive Portal
If you're looking for a way to securely connect to an Android Wifi hotspot and access the internet, you can use a captive portal. A captive portal is a web page on a public network that requires users to enter their credentials before they can access the internet.
To login to an Android Wifi hotspot using a captive portal, first open the browser on your phone and type the following address into the address bar: http://192.168.1.1. Once you reach the login page, enter your username and password (or create an account if you haven't already). You'll be prompted to confirm your identity before being granted access to the internet.
If you're having trouble logging in, make sure that your phone is connected to the same network as the Android Wifi hotspot and that you have the latest version of the browser installed. And be sure to practice safe online browsing by using a different device when connecting to untested wifi networks.
