Allow Users to Connect at Panera

I have users who cannot connect to wifi at Panera/McDonalds/etc. I have isolated at Panera specifically that disabling nextDNS allows connectivity. What about their system is not allowing internet access over nextDNS? Any help appreciated.

    Does Panera have a login portal or web policy gatekeeper you have to go through first before you're actually granted access to the internet via their wifi?

      Yes, and it appears nextdns is locking that down. I added the domains, but still nothing. As soon as I deactivate nextdns you can access the web.

      Mercy Hill do you have DNS rebinding enabled?

    I've not yet found a solution to the captive portal networks issue, other than turning off NextDNS, connecting, then re-enabling NextDNS.    But I think the Rewrites option on the Settings page is an option to help resolve this.

    You guys should turn off DNS Rebinding Protection and see if that helps.

      DNS Rebinding Protection is already off on my Mobile Device Profile.   I only connect to a handful of networks with captive portal landing pages:  Walmart, hotels, etc. and always enable my VPN when doing so.
