[Bug 1409866] [NEW] Will not find network after connection info is edited

 

Public bug reported:

Network manager fails to connect after editing my connection information and rebooting. This becomes a real hassle when I need to use a different DNS server than what my ISP provides me by default. 
After reboot, if I want to try connecting to my old network connection setup by removing the auto-generated (default) one during that boot and then clicking on my connection in the applet, my computer instantly gives me an error message "connection not found".

Please fix. This does not happen in Windows.
