Description Paul Menzel 2017-01-26 07:36:50 UTC 
With the NetworkManager applet 1.4.2 from Debian Sid/unstable, when the system is under high load and the WLAN is not that good – I believe – the following messages are shown.

```
$ nm-applet
(nm-applet:1793): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed

(nm-applet:1793): libnm-WARNING **: (nm-access-point.c:285):nm_access_point_connection_valid: runtime check failed: (ap_ssid != NULL)

(nm-applet:1793): libnm-WARNING **: (nm-access-point.c:285):nm_access_point_connection_valid: runtime check failed: (ap_ssid != NULL)
```

I guess these are two separate issues. Please confirm though, so that I can submit anotherh bug for the libnm warnings.

There is already bug #773675 [1] for the libnm warnings.

When WLAN is not good, has nothing to do with the warnings printed by nm-applet. 


> ```

> 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed

it's unclear what causes this assertion. Would need a stacktrace, that you can get via

  G_DEBUG=fatal-warnings gdb /usr/bin/nm-applet


> (nm-applet:1793): libnm-WARNING **:
> (nm-access-point.c:285):nm_access_point_connection_valid: runtime check

this is a duplicate of bug 773675.

closing this as duplicate. Pleaes re-open if you can get a stacktrace for the previous assertion. thanks
