"must sign in to network"

My Phone, an Umidigi, running Android 8.0 recently started giving my a " Android System" notification to "sign in to network", which then diverts me to "captive.apple" then connects. It used to auto connect no problem. Even when i select Forget and re sign in, it connects, with no internet until i select to sign in to network?.
Most info i found says Iphones do this. I tried airplane mode, while resetting router. None of my other 6 android devices ask for this.. I lose data when my phone boots me off and im not on wifi.
 
Hello there and welcome!
I saw your thread in the somewhat obscure Umidigi forum and thought that your issue may not just be a device specific issue.
So, I've moved your thread into the Android Lounge here to get more help and more eyes on it :D

If, in fact, the issue is specific to your device, we can easily move it back into the Umidigi device channel :)
Good luck!
