### 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.
Captive portals allow you to connect to public Wi-Fi by redirecting to login pages (think hotels, airports, coffee shops, etc.). You can safely disable Mozilla's [captive portal detection](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/captive-portal) on most **desktop** computers.
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
// [WARNING] Do NOT use for mobile devices
// You may NOT be able to use Firefox on public wifi
user_pref("captivedetect.canonicalURL", "");
user_pref("network.captive-portal-service.enabled", false);
user_pref("network.connectivity-service.enabled", false);
