When force checking for updates without enabling captive portal first, there's no gaia error to tell the user they need to log in.  it just says "Checking for updates..."

Repro:
1) install 11-5-2012 unagi daily build
2) be in a WIFI zone that requires captive portal sign in (eg. clift hotel)
3) settings > device > check for updates
4) Verify Gaia sits on "Checking for update..." dialog, when in fact the error is malformed XML

Expected:
- friendly error message for updates when not activiting wifi.
