Any advice welcomed for how to access public wifi (e.g. local library) for Tesla software update?

Problem seems to be that public wifi nearly always has a 'terms and conditions' splash page that needs to be clicked through in order to establish the wifi connection. Tesla cars, when accessing wifi networks, however, cannot 'see' that splash page like a laptop or cell phone and therefore times out and prevents a public wifi connection because the 'terms and conditions' page cannot be accepted as with a laptop.

This is an important issue for city dwellers who cannot access home-based wifi connections for software upgrades and who live miles from the nearest Tesla service center where they can access the wifi.

Have any Tesla owner city dwellers been able to find a work-around for this issue?

thanks!
