Description slartibart70 2016-07-17 19:05:05 UTC 
Having an active wifi connection to, say a 'network1'.

Playing around with ethernet-connections (and, e.g. setting ip adresses from automatic to manual and back because of tests with a new router) i experienced that the popup with the 'active connections' does lose the - still active - wifi entry.
Going to a shell and checking with 'nmcli d wifi' i see that i am still connected to 'network1'. (which is, btw, still working properly!)

I then could only disconnect using nmcli and reconnected with the network-popup in the systray.

This is rather annoying as i would expect the systray network popup to reflect the active connections...?


Reproducible: Didn't try
