Captive portal (Wi-Fi sign-in page)
In Turkish: Giriş sayfası (captive portal)
The page that opens when you join a hotel or cafe Wi-Fi and asks you to accept terms or sign in before you can go online.
Real ones usually ask only for a room number, a voucher code, or a tap on "accept". Fake ones can ask for your email password, social media login or card number, which a genuine Wi-Fi page has no reason to ask.
What to do
- Enter only what is truly needed, like a room number.
- Close the page and leave the network if it asks for passwords or card details.
- Use an email address you do not mind sharing if one is required.
