[Bug 55809] Re: NetworkManager detects wireless interface as wired interface after coming out of suspend.

[Constantine Evans]

rejecting - this is a hal bug. oops.

** Also affects: hal (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Untriaged
       Status: Unconfirmed

** Summary changed:

- NetworkManager detects wireless interface as wired interface after coming out of suspend.
+ HAL changes wireless interface (net.80211) to wired (net.80203) in info.category after suspend

** Description changed:

- On a Dell D600 running Edgy with an Intel 2200BG, Network Manager
- detects the card as a wired interface instead of a wireless interface
- after suspending (everything is fine before suspending). It then goes on
- to claim that it is connected to a wired connection, but it does not
- actually configure the interface correctly.
+ On a Dell D600 running Edgy with an Intel 2200BG, HAL changes the
+ information published on the network device after coming out of suspend.
+ Instead of listing it as a wireless device, it changes info.category and
+ info.capabilities to advertise it as net.80203.
  
- I will post a log of NM's stderr output as soon as I get a chance.
+ Network Manager thus detects the card as a wired interface instead of a
+ wireless interface after suspending (everything is fine before
+ suspending). It then goes on to claim that it is connected to a wired
+ connection, but it does not actually configure the interface correctly,
+ since it is using ZeroConf.

** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu)
       Status: Confirmed => Rejected
