It should be noted that we just landed a new version of NetworkManager into rc-proposed ( 0.9.10.0-4ubuntu15.1.10 ) which fixed a couple of race conditions that existed in the interactions between NM and wpa_supplicant that could potentially cause the phone to stop scanning on WiFi after a disconnect occurs.
That said, for now I think it best to keep this bug open, until wider testing shows whether or not issues still exist. Finally, an ongoing effort is happening to re-base Touch on NetworkManager 1.2, which includes a significant re-working of NM's WiFi logic. As this gets closer to reality/landing, I will make sure to comment on this bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1407928 Title: [phone] Does not auto-switch to available, known WiFi Status in Canonical System Image: Confirmed Status in indicator-network package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: This might not be the place for this bug, please reassign as appropriate. I was only able to reproduce this on mako/rtm, krillin/vivid seems to behave better (but I do remember the same issue there). Steps: * connect to a password-protected WiFi network * go out of range * make sure a GSM connection is established * go back in the WiFi range Expected: * phone connects to the known WiFi automatically Current: * phone does not connect to WiFi Please find attached network-test-session logs from when I toggled WiFi and Plane mode to get some data on the issue.
