They probably set up an Internet proxy for the network. If you can get the proxy ip from the tech department you can input those details by yhe wifi advanced setup area on your phone.

Yes, that does require root though
Absolutely get an Android
The S3 or another Android option?
You really can't go wrong with an S3... Best Android phone available IMO
Will it still be a good for 2 years?

I would say so. The S2 is still going strong.
Would someone be so kind as to post a "How to root for dummies thread" :0
I have googled it, watched a number of you tube vids and all seem to use different methods. I have downloaded and installed Kies, downloaded Odin3 v1.85 and whilst I am understanding what to do, I am missing one step where you click on PDA, I don't understand what file needs to be selected. The vid I watched only mentioned downloading Odin, no other files, so not sure, but I see the one vid he selects a .tar file and the other a CF-SG3-CWM file. Juts a bit confused.

1. Go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695238 and download the CF Root ZIP.
2. Extract the zip. You will have a .tar file now.
3. Load into PDA. Don't change anything else in Odin.
4. Flash and enjoy
EDIT: in case you are feeling lazy, here is the direct link to the download.
http://download.chainfire.eu/196/CF-Root/SGS3/CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4.zip?retrieve_file=1
EDIT2: PM me and I will respond with email addy in the event you feel you need a bit of hand holding through flashing either this or future ROMS. I do this for quite a few peeps so no issue with it.

Thanks Mike. Much appreciated!
You are on the right track. Just open Odin and you will see the PDA section where you will select the file.

It sets a global proxy, as opposed to the browser proxy that may or may not be seen by apps, e.g. Facebook would work but not tappatalk.
You can bind the proxy settings to an ssid, so that proxy droid automatically activates when you connect to a specified network.
