Why won't my laptop connect to my school's wireless internet?

Hello, I'm having troubles connecting my laptop to my school's guest internet.

Every time I connect I know I am suppose to sign in, but it won't let me sign in until I download java, which I already downloaded java that's the frustrating part.

Here's the message: https/n46.network-auth.com/splash/?mac=00%3A18%3A0A%3A32%3A59%3A52&client_ip=10.220.61.36&client_mac=6C:FA:A7:2F:4F:80&vap=1&a=59129aacfb6cebbe2c52f30ef3424209f7252e82&b=1750474&auth_version=5&key=e2ce4232c182fc232858eaed0338d1d6b9de2240&acl_ver=P8185076V2&continue_url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.msftncsi.com%2Fredirect

I tried downloading both versions of java but they still don't work and I tried downloading multiple times. The funny thing is that my phone and tablet connects to it with no problem.

Here's my laptop: http/www.engadget.com/products/asus/eeebook/x205/specs/


Is there anything I can do?

What browser are you using?

In realms of web programming there is Internet Explorer and there is everything else. Thus if using IE then try something else, if not using IE then try IE.

it may not be the laptop fault. crome browser now blocks java from being used or installed. if you have newer firefox or ie browsers make sure java is enabled under option/add in. also make sure you download java from the source and not that link.
