What is the best way to protect me against MITM attacks under a public network?

I have a pineapple nano tactical elite with the additional usb wifi adapter which becomes wlan2 and I use it for client mode to give to pineapple internet access. This works great on my home wifi however I am unable to get internet access when I try and connect to an open wifi hotspot mostly due to that access point having a web portal to accept the conditions or something. How do I go about accepting this so I can get online. When I use just my phone for example I am able to connect to the access point and open a web browser and enter the appropriate details. But how can this be accomplished using the pineapple so I can successfully use client mode?

I've read most of the forum posts about the various ways to setup and configure a Captive Portal on the Mark IV... I'm purchasing an Elite WiFi Pineapple Mark IV Kit in a few weeks and I'd like to setup some sort of system, so when people join my Pineapple they're greeted by a nice Local Web Page explaining some details about the free hotspot project going on around the state blah blah blah. It's not for phishing or hiding scripts etc... but more for giving the information that I want to get out there. I would like for users to have the option of completely ignoring the page if they want, or reading it. There will be no authentication or any restrictions on data and available websites etc... It would be great if my created page could be the first thing people see when they open their browser or try to load Google for example, but have the ability to read(not read) and move on. Does anyone know what's going on with the Captive Portal Module, or better yet; does anyone know how I could easily go about setting this up? As always any help is greately appreciated. P.S. Oh and I'm going to say I'm praying for all you Americans out there. Terrorists suck!
