This is a problem unique to my XperiaX - SFOS 4.0.1.48
I am stuck in a hotel for 14 days.
The hotel has yet another stupid captive login system. The browser manages to present me with the logon screen and I can enter credentials, however the “OK” button doesn’t work, so no internet.
Has anyone else seen this sort of browser issue?
I tried a different screen orientation to make sure it wasn’t some dead spot on the screen.
Once upon a time I believed in the advantages of multiple browsers on the internet. Now I think we’d be better served with just one that actually worked

Sounds like the pop-up button problem which we had already with all those annoying cookie accept overlays is not yet solved!
Idea for workaround:
if you got a PC with you, then fake the MAC address of your PC to match the one of your X (on X set WLAN off aforehand) and register with that one on PC, then PC WLAN off and reset MAC address, X WLAN on and try if it works now (should be registered now already).
Yes, I know how to flip Mac addresses. I have had this problem a couple of times on SFOS so I thought I’d mention it in case it’s an observable/fixable thing. But it’s not like I can give a reproducer, since it’s specific to my physical location and network.

Yes, thise ‘landing pages’ and sometimes the background stuff are horror (especially if the browser cannot handle).
side story:
I do remember sort of this thing years ago with my N900 where I could connect but did not get proper routing settings propagated and had no internet access. Luckily I could trace it down somehow and solved it with some script to be called after connecting to this network (I love open Linux phones 
)
I know that’s not solution for SFOS browser, but can’t you use an Android browser for it? Like Firefox or Opera?

You’ll probably regret asking that question when you think about it more deeply
