Ubuntu 12.04 Problems with update manager in WLAN without connection

[problembear at web.de]

sorry for using the html email mode and thank you for responding ..

rethinking .. 'network manager' might think it has a connection (e.g. DNS resolution into the INTERNET works fine) .. but without login to the WLAN, all attempts (e.g. by the update manager, etc.) to contact .. http://ubuntuupdate.somewebsite.somedomain .. will lead to the webserver of the WLAN provider responding with his login page .. maybe the update manager is not checking for the information source and taking the response from the WLAN provider webserver as package update information ?
