Could you give some details on what you mean there. Does it remember you and doesn't ask you to click through the portal page? Or does the page ask for a login and it that's pre-entered for you? Or do you mean just the "ask to accept cookie" part? (it could be useful to make a screenshot showing that cookie part to make sure there is no misunderstanding) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1818517 Title: "Network Login" browser does not remember cookies Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: This is with respect to the gnome-shell-portal-helper, part of the gnome-shell package, which opens its own browser window to prompt for a wifi hotspot login. It all works fine except one little papercut: Could it remember cookies? So when I go back to the same hotspot most days I don't have to click OK to accept cookies every time before I can actually click to go online. It's possible I suppose they don't all use cookies. The hotspot in question is a BT wifi hotspot, so probably quite common in GB anyway. Desired behaviour, hate to say, is like Windows: It actually remembered my choice from before and just logged me in right away.
