    I found this in the store: If you can read that, it says service is available only in the Seattle area. I say remove the hell out of this app.

    Is this the one that you have? If this is what you have it is not designed for your system take it out instantly

  3. I ran into this just a few minutes ago on a free Wi-Fi hotspot. When I clicked "view other connection options from provider" it thankfully took me to the regular login page. It had me peeved thinking the business in question had begun charging for previously free Wi-Fi.

    Good to know for future, however I think its easy to miss, just like creating a Windows user account without a Microsoft account, you can do it but you have to read between the lines
