My company uses Cisco Umbrella on company laptops. When a user go into Koru lounge they can connect wifi but you don't get the logon web page to give you internet access. This also happens with some motels / hotels wifi. Anyone here seen the same issue. Trying to work out how to allow it.

Balm its gone!

Have you tried to load up a non secure web page? www.example.com for example.

Could it be the client device is using non-default DNS so it can't resolve the login domain?

Sorry but this does not answer my question. Using Cisco Umbrella is not the root cause. There must be a way to identify what setting is causing the failed login attempt.

Can your client resolve DNS at all when Cisco Umbrella is enabled? Does a nslookup [servername] returns anything or fails?

It will be an issue with the captive portal redirect. It's also worth noting that Koru does not allow the use of any 3rd party DNS servers so even if you're trying to use 1.1.1.1 for privacy on your phone it will break.
