Bug 408370

Created attachment 120615 [details]
plasma-nm applet stuck in a spinning state

SUMMARY

Sometimes the applet would show a spinner on the tray icon and next to the Wi-Fi network when opened. The network status for the network says "Connected", but the spinner is shown on the side at the same time (see the attached screenshot).

There's a Disconnect button when hovering on the network.

Disconnecting and reconnecting doesn't make the problem go away.
Rebooting the system does.

This is similar to bug 339026, but:
- I'm not sure how to reproduce it. I just know that it has happened multiple times for me over the past few months
- I do have some OpenVPN connections set up, but I don't actively use them, nor are they set to auto-connect. I definitely haven't connected to a VPN in my current session (system uptime is 2 days), but the spinning problem occurred, so we can likely rule VPN out
- I do use the weather applet. I can't say if not using it fixes anything, because it takes a long time to see the problem happen (days/weeks sometimes). Removing the weather applet after the bug had happened and disconnecting/reconnecting yields the same result - spinning forever.

`nmcli general status` says:

STATE      CONNECTIVITY  WIFI-HW  WIFI     WWAN-HW  WWAN    
connected  full          enabled  enabled  enabled  enabled



STEPS TO REPRODUCE

Unknown. I think the problem is triggered after a suspend/resume.
However, not every suspend/resume triggers it (in fact, most don't).
