Description eladhen2 2017-02-17 13:50:14 UTC
I'm testing Xubuntu 17.04, with Network Manager 1.4.4.

After the system resumes from suspend the nm-applet icon changes from a Wi-Fi connection icon to a wired connection icon. Furthermore — the available Wi-Fi access points are not shown when you click it. The connection to Wi-Fi, however, is not broken. I'm still connected to the web through Wi-Fi (the Computer is not connected to a wired connection).

Running:

killall nm-applet

nm-applet

fixes the problem.

My system (inxi -Fz):

I think this is a dupe of bug 767317.

Are you able to recompile the nm-applet package (or a git version) with the patch in:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=767317#c23

and attach the console output after a resume from suspend?

Ubuntu 17.04 is indeed shipping with applet 1.4.2, which would have that bug

bugzilla.gnome.org is being shut down in favor of a GitLab instance. 
We are closing all old bug reports and feature requests in GNOME Bugzilla which have not seen updates for a long time.

If you still use NetworkManager and if you still see this bug / want this feature in a recent and supported version of NetworkManager, then please feel free to report it at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/issues/

Thank you for creating this report and we are sorry it could not be implemented (workforce and time is unfortunately limited).
