Manage captive wifi portals #15

Open IanTaylorFB opened 5 years ago

IanTaylorFB commented 5 years ago

When the scripts are running on a wifi network that uses a captive portal (where you need to log in before you can use the internet), the scripts fail to get the session metadata, without informative error messages, and without any ability to manage the lack of connection. We need to fix the captive portal issues so it is clear when there is no active network. @glen442 has already done some work on this (but I can't find a commit or PR to @reference?).
