MacOS 10.14 Mojave public beta public Wi-Fi problem

macosmojaveNetworkwifi

I can not connect to a single public Wi-Fi hotspot that does not require a password but instead shows a pop-up window pointed to captive.apple.com

The pop-up opens blank with the error "The web page couldn't be loaded"

Any idea on how to fix this?

Found a solution! If you get a similar problem like this one:

A problem occurred

The solution is to visit the following URL directly from Safari: http://captive.apple.com/hotspot-detect.html

You should be able to connect immediately.

For some reason, Mojave is not redirecting or opening that page properly, hence the error.
