About
http://connectivitycheck.catsarch.com/ and https://connectivitycheck.catsarch.com/ are connectivity check pages that work for Android and Network Manager connectivity checks.
It returns HTTP 204 for Android[1] and includes the X-NetworkManager-Status: online header for Network Manager[2].
Note that the HTTP link does NOT redirect to the HTTPS one.
How to use
Android[3]
Enter the following commands using ADB:
adb shell 'settings put global captive_portal_http_url "http://connectivitycheck.catsarch.com/"'
adb shell 'settings put global captive_portal_https_url "https://connectivitycheck.catsarch.com/"'
adb shell 'settings put global captive_portal_fallback_url "http://connectivitycheck.catsarch.com/"'
adb shell 'settings put global captive_portal_other_fallback_urls "http://connectivitycheck.catsarch.com/"'
Network Manager[4]
Create /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/20-connectivity.conf and enter the following inside of it:
[connectivity]
uri=http://connectivitycheck.catsarch.com/
Other
I'm sure there are other systems and software that this works with that I'm not aware of. Anything that expects HTTP 204 should work just fine though.
If you have instructions for others that you've found this works with or know of any others that I can support then use the links in the footer to contact me!
