[Bug 1488726] [NEW] Wireless connection not restored when lost

 

Public bug reported:

Whenever a wireless connection is lost and the same network becomes
available again, the connection is not restored. Even selecting the
network again from the drop down menu does not work, it just tries to
connect forever.  The only way out is to disable and re-enable wifi, and
the connection is got instantly.
