[Bug 1355776] Re: WiFi shown as enabled in indicator while enabled in status bar

 

State "0" means "unblocked", so indicator-network is showing the state
correctly as reported by URfkill.


** Changed in: indicator-network (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Invalid

Title:
  WiFi shown as enabled in indicator while enabled in status bar

Status in “indicator-network” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete
Status in “urfkill” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After disabling WiFi and rebooting, WiFi appears as enabled in
  indicator-network and system settings.

  This contradicts what is shown in the status bar (see attached
  screenshot).

  WiFi interface exists, but it is down:

  # ip address
  22: wlan0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 100
      link/ether 10:68:3f:7a:92:d5 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

  While wifi RF is not blocked:

  # rfkill list
  0: phy0: Wireless LAN
  	Soft blocked: no
  	Hard blocked: no
  1: hci0: Bluetooth
  	Soft blocked: no
  	Hard blocked: no

  Which is coherent with urfkill persistent state:

  # cat /var/lib/urfkill/saved-states 
  [ALL]
  soft=false

  [WLAN]
  soft=false
  ...

  However, saved-states was before rebooting (after disabling wifi):

  ~# cat /var/lib/urfkill/saved-states 
  [ALL]
  soft=false

  [WLAN]
  soft=true
  ...

  Difficult to say were exactly is the error, but apparently something
  is powering on WiFi.
