About Umass Boston Wifi Autologin

***This app is no longer needed. Us the eduroam network instead***

This app was made by a student and was not made by UMass Boston.

My website: http://josephpcohen.com

This will log into the captive portal for you when your wifi connects to the UMB network.

This app works by simulating a user logging into the captive portal. It uses the username and password from the settings page to authenticate to the wireless network.

When your wifi connects to the network "UMB-Student" the process begins. It will first check to see if you are connected, if it encounters the login page it will log in.

If you are already logged in or connected to the wifi the app won't do anything. Shut off your wifi and turn it back on to trigger the app. If you already logged into the network you have to wait till the wifi makes you log in again to see it work.

If you have questions then email me: umbautologin@gmail.com

This is an unobtrusive app that solves a weird issue people will have connecting their smartphones to UMass Boston's WiFi. It is a shame that the university made the network so that you have to log in again every time you go to a different building. Thankfully this app does all that work for me.

Now I can walk anywhere on campus and use the internet without having to fiddle around for five minutes trying to log into the UMass system each time. Brilliant! According to my calculations this ap should save me about 25 minutes a day which I can spend doing homework instead. Thank you soooo much!

great job, now we have to get full internet access on the wireless!!!

T70%
by T####:

This application is unfortunately necessary. Due to the horribly duct-tape-designed WiFi network of UMass Boston, students are required to use a login form every time they move to another building or log into the WiFi. This app is only necessary because of the inconvenience this imposes on tuition-paying students. This app would not be necessary if UMass Boston IT complied with the IEEE 802.1x standard, which would allow users to register their devices with the University and have them automatically gain access to the network through a standard authentication method, rather than using a network interface that is poorly made and looks incredibly unprofessional. Joseph Paul Cohen did us all a service by making an app to navigate this duct-tape ridden network for us and made the lives of students much easier.

If you need help getting this app to work you can visit the Unix/Linux Computer Lab in the Computer Science department. There are many students who are mobile app entrepreneurs who can help you get it working.
