[Bug 1446763] Re: [OOBE] There should be a mechanism to detect login-protected WiFis

 

Thanks TenLeftFingers, you are right, I misread the report. If the
problem still occurs inside System Settings, it is not a problem with
the first-run setup. And if restarting the phone fixed the problem, it
is probably a problem with Network Manager.

** Package changed: indicator-network (Ubuntu) => network-manager
(Ubuntu)

** No longer affects: ubuntu-ux

** Summary changed:

- [OOBE] There should be a mechanism to detect login-protected WiFis
+ Online Account setup behind captive portal fails even after connecting

Title:
  Online Account setup behind captive portal fails even after connecting

Bug description:
  On first boot of the BQ device, I connected to a wifi point that
  requires the user to accept Terms and Conditions before making the
  internet available (although the user does have a wifi connection to
  the hotspot).

  Settings -> Accounts -> Ubuntu One signin reported an error (network
  or signing, I can't remember).

  I returned to the browser which led me to the routers page for
  accepting their T's & C's and the connection became available (I could
  now browse the web).

  Returning to the Ubuntu One signin screen, I re-entered my
  authentication details but got the same error continuously. Rebooting
  solved the issue.

  EXPECTED:
  After establishing the connection, Ubuntu One account signin should have recognised that a connection had become available.
