captive portal detection currently is only refreshed through nm (based on a timer) this means that even after having unlocked a portal the connection icon of the applet will show limited connectivity until the timer based refresh occurs. it'd be grand if plasma-nm forced a refresh after having done the unlock. very tricky to implement of course

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. be behind portal
2. have nm properly set up to detect limited connectivity
3. get notification upon connecting
4. click login
5. login

OBSERVED RESULT
icon stays in limited mode for quite a while by default, lowering the timeout wouldn't be good either because then we spam the network with needless probe events

EXPECTED RESULT
icon updates very soon

COMMENT
possible solutions:
- use a qwebengineview to render the login page (with a button to go to browser just in case), when the view is closed redo the portal check... + also needs a way to say "use as is" to disable the login checks

- check if browsers can be operated in a similar fashion to a standalone view (i.e. standalone minimal window, when closed refresh state)

- make a crappy hack where the login page is embedded in a local page which somehow tracks and communicates with plasma-nm
