Hello all. I’ve been trying to get my steam deck to connect to the public wifi at work. In desktop mode I can get the portal page to come up, and I can click accept to log in. However, it won’t let me play games that need an internet connection. I can browse the internet fine though. I’m trying to play World of Warcraft through the battle net launcher, so it shouldn’t be my work not accepting steam.

I also tried tethering it to my phones wifi connection via blue tooth while my phone is connected to the public wifi. It connects, but once again I can only browse the internet. Occasionally I get a "cant get secrets from (my phone). I was playing connected to my phones hot spot using mobile data, but I ran out of data so I can’t do that any more. Does anyone have some tips? Thank you!

    If you have an Android phone, there might be an option for “Bluetooth tethering” in the options somewhere.
