with the Fedora infrastructure this afternoon (the check works by
trying to contact a Fedora server).That much I gathered, but when I first read about the captive portal detection feature, I thought it was supposed to work only with wireless connections, though I guess it would make sense to check with all interfaces.
Can it be disabled for a particular interface/connection though? I am being bombarded with pop-ups as I am trying to write this...
No, it still makes sense for wired networks. Have you ever used an ethernet wall-jack at a hotel? It generally goes through a captive portal, just like wireless.
