It's easy to say that when it isn't your responsibility to deal with rightfully frustrated & confused end users that simply want to be able to use this WiFi network like they use every other WiFi network. Connect and forget.
I also have a never-ending hate for WiFi networks that use portals as they break tons of functionality and always have caveats & problems like the ones parent described.
The worst part? Acting very arrogant about it is the standard IT response, and it blatantly and demonstrably decreases security. Users keep splitters, ethernet cables & routers in their offices, in their laptop bags and around the building.
So go ahead, take this attitude towards the end users of your network. Just don't be surprised if the next IT crisis is caused by someone who "just didn't want to deal with the WiFi hassle".
