I use apex controllers to control pH in ocean acidification experiments on coral but only have used older models that could directly connect to my mac/pc with an ethernet cable (dont usually have internet in these far off locations). I recently purchased the newest model (Apex 2016) to use at a research station which does have wifi but connecting to this network has to be done on a login page on a web browser.
How does one connect the Apex to a wireless network at a university or business that does not have a simple WPA2 wifi password, but instead a login screen etc.?
If this is not possible, could anyone advise how I could still communicate with my Apex in the absence of access to the university's router? Can I directly connect my computer to the Apex 2016 as was possible on the earlier models with an ethernet cable?
Thank you. It may sound strange, but I dont need the Apex to monitor anything and dont really need the wifi capabilities...I just need to give it commands and let it do its thing (control the pH)
