Application: AutoWifi

What it is:

AutoWifi is a useful application that allows Linux users to login
automatically to free WiFi hotspots that require web-based
authentication. Working in the systray, AutoWifi will login securely
to a hotspot once an SSID is matched.

This will make you avoid the hassle of web-based authentications for
free hotspots and make your connection longer as if you are connecting
via a LAN.

sudo dpkg -i autowifi_0.1-public29_all.deb

Use the Unity Dash to start AutoWifi.
