Title:
  indicator-network-service writing debug messages about cell signal
  strength to /home/phablet/.cache/upstart/indicator-network.log

Status in Network Menu:
  In Progress
Status in “indicator-network” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  indicator-network-service is frequently writing copious amounts of
  debug messages to /home/phablet/.cache/upstart/indicator-network.log,
  for example:

  tail -f /home/phablet/.cache/upstart/indicator-network.lo 
  ** (process:1378): DEBUG: device-base.vala:152: Marking '/ril_0' as Disabled
  ** (process:1378): DEBUG: device-base.vala:152: Marking '/ril_0' as Disabled
  ** (process:1378): DEBUG: network-action-manager.vala:581: Active connection changed to: wlan0
  ** (process:1378): DEBUG: network-action-manager.vala:581: Active connection changed to: wlan0
  ** (process:1378): DEBUG: network-action-manager.vala:261: Cell Strength: 22
  ** (process:1378): DEBUG: network-action-manager.vala:261: Cell Strength: 25
  ** (process:1378): DEBUG: network-action-manager.vala:261: Cell Strength: 29
  ** (process:1378): DEBUG: network-action-manager.vala:261: Cell Strength: 25
  ** (process:1378): DEBUG: network-action-manager.vala:261: Cell Strength: 22
  ** (process:1378): DEBUG: network-action-manager.vala:261: Cell Strength: 25
  ** (process:1378): DEBUG: network-action-manager.vala:261: Cell Strength: 22
  ** (process:1378): DEBUG: network-action-manager.vala:261: Cell Strength: 19
  ** (process:1378): DEBUG: network-action-manager.vala:261: Cell Strength: 16
  ** (process:1378): DEBUG: network-action-manager.vala:261: Cell Strength: 19

  If I am moving around then the signal strength is frequently changing
  and this log is being appended to every second or so.  This is
  wasteful on flash and also wastes power just for debug messages.
