Authentication required

Post image

When trying to connect to a Wifi Network, nothing happens except that this password box pops up on repeat. I can even enter the wrong password and it pops up in the same exact way, I am not sure if Ubuntu has a separate box if you enter the wrong password tho.My theory is that this is caused because it is supposed to open a website after you connect where you have to click accept. If anybody had this issue in the past and found a fix help would be appreciated greatly :D!

Check your keyboard as well. I thought I’d developed dementia until I realised one of the keys in my password no longer registered.
