Bug Description

When connecting to a portal, capnet doesn't automatically close anymore. This means there is no longer a feedback mechanism to let you know that you've successfully logged in to the captive portal.

Yes, this happens as a consequence to revision 78, which belongs the me. On some captive portals there is important information displayed on the page after you are logged in,such as credit card transaction information or duration. It should not close.

I will get around to removing the alert view from my retires brach, which brings several improvements, such as the window not showing when it's not necessary me (which still bugs me as hell)

Generally, the captive portal confirmation page will do that. But I agree with you.
