I later set up [this makeshift script](https://github.com/justsaumit/.dotfiles/blob/main/.scripts/wifi-captive-login)    which just finds out the gateway IP and uses st's -e flag that allows st to open the captive-portal in a webbrowser on a new temporary terminal window.    The issue was I still had to type in my login credentials _everytime_ :/    With this, it is the same except I get to automate it using [gnu pass](https://www.passwordstore.org/) (my choice of a simple, secure and encrypted password manager)    and that using XPath(XML Path) to find elements is pretty convenient. -  ## Future additions:  - [x] Update the script upon reaching college as the Xpath values would differ.
