The generic bearer plugin is brain dead, especially when it comes to knowing when it's actually connected or not.
Although connectivity-api also suffers from blocking dbus calls, I feel the connectivity-api backend is the right way to go for bearer & QNAM right now. In the least, it will lessen the stress on dbus, as ideally, there should be only one Qt entity getting network-manager properties through dbus on a system. At least the blocking calls will be off loaded from everybody and their brother that happens to use QNAM knowingly or blindly. I am not yet familiar with who originally starts connectivity-api and when things start accessing QNAM at startup, though. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1480877 Title: Access points' "PropertiesChanged" dbus signals freeze UI on mobile devices To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1480877/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
