Most web sites now use SSL. While this a great increase of security, there is one situation in which this is a bad thing: Connecting to a WiFi network that tries to add a login screen into the website you requested. This is not possible and without that login (and accepting the terms of service) you do not get an internet connection. What can you do when you travel abroad and need to circumvent this protection?
You could create your own site that has no SSL, but that is a lot of work for those few times you need that login mask. A much better and free option is to use http://neverssl.com. This site does exactly what its easy to remember URL suggests: It runs without SSL.
Whenever you need a site not protected with HTTPS you go to http://neverssl.com and let the network operator inject that annoying login mask. Close this tab (or browser) as soon as you are connected.
For users of VPN clients: You may need to turn them off until you are logged in. Just do not forget to turn the VPN client back on when you are connected.
so om comcast will neverssl work
Hi sjy,
I have no experience with comcast, but neverssl worked on all devices I tried so far. Therefore, your chances are good that it will work on your comcast.

Will it work w vpn? Cuz I go to neverssl.com but then what?
Hi Car,
Neverssl.com is great to establish the connection to the wifi network that inject their login mask. Try that before you open up your VPN client.
