+### Captive portal detection
+Captive portals allow you to connect to public Wi-Fi by redirecting to login pages (think hotels, airports, etc.). You can safely disable Mozilla's [captive portal detection](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/captive-portal) on a **desktop** computer. 
+
+If you disable captive portals on a **mobile** device, then you'll need a separate browser to connect to the internet on public Wi-Fi and some [company networks](https://github.com/yokoffing/Betterfox/discussions/377).
+
+```javascript
+// PREF: disable captive portal detection
+user_pref("captivedetect.canonicalURL", ""); 
+user_pref("network.captive-portal-service.enabled", false); 
+user_pref("network.connectivity-service.enabled", false); 
+```
