Too Many Redirects (More than Twenty) for Public Wifi

Good evening!



I am trying to connect to a public wifi network at a coffee shop. My Ubuntu system is the latest LTS (18.04, I think), and the computer recognizes that it should pull up a network login page but then it says "Load cannot follow more than 20 redirections." I have tried to no avail every single answer to similar questions on the following threads:



Cannot log in to public open Wifi connection
https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2232412



I have been unable to find other threads that address this issue directly specifically for Ubuntu (there are quite a few for Mac and Google, but those also do not help). Does anyone have a different tact I could try? Thanks!



Wireless is neither soft nor hard blocked



Results of the command lsusb:
