Thanks for the Android 10+ captive portal fix, from a similar project in Italy

[Carrotstudiosoftwarehouse]

Hi @kirkdwilson,

I'm Matteo, 25, from Italy. I came across ConnectBox while looking for offline captive portals, and your recent fix for Android 10 and later (the "Use this network as is" step) taught me something: so far we've only tried iPhones as guests, so you've probably saved us a lot of head-scratching. Thank you!

I'm working on Campanile, an offline neighborhood hub that runs on a laptop or a Raspberry Pi: community notices, a help board, an "I'm safe" feature, offline maps and emergency alerts, for when the internet is down. We just did our first field test with no internet at all. In case it's useful to you: our iPhones showed "No internet connection" but stayed connected and used the portal fine.

Thanks again, and great work on ConnectBox!

Matteo, CarrotStudio
