Many open networks use some kind of webform for authentication and/or user agreement of the TOS. It would be great if Sidestep could detect the presence of these kinds of redirects and wait for the user to authenticate/agree. Once the internet connection is succesfully set up, Sidestep should automatically setup the proxy connection.
AFAIK Apple currently uses a hardcoded URL to a known file in iOS to test for an internet connection, if this fails it shows the user the webform for authenticating/agreeing. Something similar could be used by Sidestep perhaps?
