Captive Portal Authentication issues for new iphone

[itanveer]

Dear fellows,

When you have CP authentication enable, it ask you the password and login in a browser page, thats fine for already working computers and smart phone but when you are setting up a new iphone, how you should do this? you cannot use a browser until your phone is setup and for phone setup you need a wifi connection to be able to use icloud etc.

The FREE AUTHORISED option you cannot use as the MAC address of the new phone is not know to you, it not printed on the phone or the invoice or anywhere, the MAC address is only known when the phone is setup.

Do you have a suggestion for this issue.

Regards

Ilyas

A quick google search for “find mac iphone” returns this:

Does this help?

This procedure is for the already functional iphones, I was asking for a new uninstalled iphone for which you need a WiFi connection but authentication is not possible because you have no browser available on the uninstalled iphone
