GottaRun Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Last year I could use stadium wifi with no problem. This year I get 'HSTS Security error'. Same phone, Samsung... something or the other. I can't find any decent help Googling the problem. Emailed the club but didn't get an answer (I blame Rex).

/dev/null Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 If it happened on a Samsung the stadium might have shut you down so you didn't start a fire My guess is the Stadium's captive portal needs tweaking. Long story short you aren't connected to the Internet at the stadium. You are connected to the captive portal. All traffic from you to the internet is funneled thru the portal and your return traffic is funneled back thru the portal.

CowgirlsFan Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 On my flight to Buff for the opener they told people with Samsung Galaxy Note to turn their phones off completely for the duration of the flight. Same thing for my two flights going up and coming back. My phone is a Samsung S6 Active and I just kept it in airplane mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like there's not much I can do from my end (other than buy a new phone). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
