Pinebook Pro Initial Impressions

I'm in a hotel now and the PBP can't connect to the Wifi network.
The PBP sees it as a secure Wifi network, while my Windows laptop connects and launches the browser with a page where I can agree to the terms of use of the Wifi network.
Or is there a trick to connect with the PBP?

Aren't captive portals great on Linux?
Looked around, and found a few suggestions you could try.

For some people sudo dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf worked.

Some "connected" to the network, and got their authorization token by going to the router IP instead of the portal page.

This page outlines a few other possible solutions.

Thanks. I'm typing this on the PBP connected to the hotel Wifi.
First I had to connect through my phone, as resolvconf is not installed on the PBP.

sudo apt install resolvconf
sudo dpkg-reconfigure resolvconf

Restarted the PBP.

I connected to the hotel Wifi and used FF to go to 1.1.1.1.
There I was able to accept the terms.
That worked for a minute or so.
It looked liked I lost the connection again.

Disconnected and removed the Wifi definition in Network Connections.
Connected again, accepted the terms again on 1.1.1.1 and now it is connected properly.

So it might be a good idea to put resolvconf in the standard image.
