All captive portal wifi connections are failing with Ubuntu 17.10. This was confirmed on two different captive portals which both worked just fine with other devices. The solution was to go back to Ubuntu 17.04.
You get to the portal page, put in whatever info, then afterwards the redirect wouldn't redirecting properly. This failed in both Chromium and Firefox, and with both "use system proxy" as well as "automatic proxy" settings. Manual proxy configuration settings weren't tried, so I can't confirm if this might be a problem relating to the proxy pac file or not. Either way this is a pretty critical issue since it seems all captive portals don't work, making Ubuntu 17.10 on laptops pretty broken at the moment. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1727237 Title: systemd-resolved is not finding a domain Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I have an odd network situation that I have so far managed to narrow down to the inability to resolve a domain via systemd-resolved which is resolvable with nslookup. If I use nslookup against the two nameservers on this network I get answers for the domain, but ping says it is unable to resolve the same domain (as do browsers and crucially the captive portal mechanism).
