Public bug reported: network-manager has a facility to automatically pop up a Captive Portal of a Wi-Fi network if required for access to the internet through that network. It does test accesses and on failure it triggers the pop-up.
Unfortunately, this does not work in Cosmic due to an upstream bug which is fixed in a later upstream version of network-manager (in Disco the pop-up works). ** Affects: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: Triaged ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1817947 Title: On Cosmic, there is no automatic pop-up if a Wi-Fi network has a Captive Portal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1817947/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
