FWIW, here's Android's code to detect it:

http://grepcode.com/file/repository.grepcode.com/java/ext/com.google.android/android/4.0.1_r1/android/net/wifi/WifiWatchdogStateMachine.java#WifiWatchdogStateMachine.isWalledGardenConnection%28%29

Seems they connect to something returning status 204 and expecting that
code or else will open the popup.
