Title: Inappropriate wi-fi password confirmation requests and related memory leak Status in network-manager-applet package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: To replicate: 1: Connect to a Wi-Fi network with 75% signal strength or less Expected results: Network Manager should remain connected as much as possible, and automatically reconnect when necessary. Actual results: The Wi-Fi password confirmation dialog is repeatedly shown even when the Wi-Fi password has not changed. The memory-consumption of nm-applet increases each time, often up to 200MB over the course of 8 hours.
