I'm running ubuntu budgie 20.04.1. I could connect to my college's wifi but couldn't access the authentication page as it wouldn't pop up. Even pasting the login page URL from another device didn't work. entering a URL such as https://www.google.com was rejected instead of redirecting to the login page. What worked for me was entering 1.1.1.1. I tried this because things like updates still worked even though I was not logged into the network. I had hoped that I could just use my own DNS and drive on. Instead, I was redirected to the login page that I couldn't access any other way. either way, problem solved. Hope this helps.
