Can’t connect to public WiFi via Linux

I am using Fedora 42, and I am unable to access the captive portal of inOui TGV. I can connect to the WiFi with no problems, but I can’t get access to the Internet.

I have tried everything:

  1. Connecting to 192.168.1.1, to http://neverssl.com, to http://wifi.sncf via browser
  2. Running sudo dhclient -r and rebooting the device
  3. Running systemctl restart NetworkManager
  4. Also other stuff I tried in the past with other public WiFis. I am sure there is something wrong with my specific device configuration, it’s not this network.

Nothing works 😩

Can somebody who understands this stuff help me?
