2016-05-20 Thread Rolf Leggewie
This should be fixed in at least Yakkety and Xenial with upstream commit 
a7c8e5c6e9aad.  This being "
Please provide a mechanism whereby Wi-Fi networks can be prioritized" in 
Network-Manager.  Clearly, there are still further possible improvements and 
upstream is already discussing a few in 
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=737356 but wifi priorities has been 
implemented and thus this ticket shall be closed as fixed.  It's good to see 
upstream reversing their initial stance.  Too bad trusty most likely won't see 
this fix.

The new logic is:

In the main popup, only show connections that are currently connectable

providing this is currently found via scan.  Networks that are
configured but where the access point is not present are not shown.

The other, unconfigured scanned networks are in a submenu.  Is this an
acceptable prioritisation?

It's not possible with NetworkManager - the policies the daemon uses are
quite inflexible.  The only way you can influence this is to set some
connections as 'never default' (which sucks when the cable connection is
not present) or change the timestamp on wireless connection B so it is
newer than A and NM will prefer it.

It also tries to keep as many 'connect automatically' connections up as
possible so the 'disable wireless when connected to cable' idea is not
possible.  Sorry.  Please try and convince NM to add client policy
control and then I'lll implement it in the KDE UI.

If two wireless networks have been configured with autoconnect,
knetworkmanager seems to choose the weaker connection instead of the

Is this also an issue of nm policies? Please advice if I should file a

Well, the fix must be released, and the fixed version be included into
Ubuntu. Be awere that this is just a feature implemented with an API in
the Network manager core with an API, so clients like nm-applet must
expose this functionality for it to be easily used.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 366780] Re: Please provide a mechanism whereby Wi-Fi networks can be prioritized

2014-10-07 Thread Romano Giannetti
@Marius I have exactly the same problem with the University network and
the global EDUROAM network. And no, I can't change the name of any of
them; I just want NM to connect to my local University network whenever
available, even if last time I manually connected to the global EDUROAM
--- because I was in another university campus.

Let me explain exactly the problem:

- I have a wifi account on my university network, let call it UNIWIFI. When I 
am connected to this network I can print (and more, but use that as an 
example). 
- I have an account on EDUROAM, which is broadcast on hundreds of universities, 
included mine. When I am connected with EDUROAM, I cannot print. 

Now I move between my campus and other campuses. So the last connection
could well be EDUROAM, because I was, say, attending a meeting. Or
because I entered the elevator in my campus and the UNIWIFI was lost and
by chance exiting the elevator NM was trying to connect to EDUROAM, and
succeeded.

Summary: I would like to have a way to say that if UNIWIFI is available,
NM should switch to it even if the EDUROAM is available and was
automatically connected (with automatically I mean after  a  connection
loss or reboot or wake-up). I really think that just one bit of priority
is all that is needed. Now I have to check and sometime change manually
my connection every time I have to do a privileged (like printing)
operation...

BTW, this is not a criticism of NM in general. NM is a really
outstanding tool and works perfectly, out of the box, with no help from
the user 98% of the time --- which is almost magical. Simply there are
cases where the heuristic of connection does not work; it would be
really nice if the UNIWIFI AP could send a "this network supersedes
EDUROAM" info in the broadcast, but...

Does that mean that someone needs to create something else than NM,

This doesn't solve the problem. One problem: I have two networks, 2.4GHz and 
5GHz.
The 2.4 have better range (of course), but when the 5GHz is available, I want 
NM to switch to that one. But if it previously connected to the 2.4, it will 
NEVER switch to 5GHz again.

Similar for a wider (public) network that also covers your home. When
you're home, you want that network to be picked. But when you leave home
and use the public network (eduroam?), NM will never pick your home
network again, because it's also covered by the public network. And the
public network now have a "better" timestamp.

This is definitely necessary as opposed to a wishlist item.  Here's why.

Cable providers offer WiFi hotspots now and coverage is growing rapidly.

While at home, I can use either one. However, when I am home, I WANT my
network because it is faster.  The old mindset was that the system would
use an available network that you had set up..However, with HotSpot
coverage, I get either one at home.

I would prefer an option to use the order of appearance in the network
window with a move up/down to order the priority.

2013-04-25 Thread mvdkwast
> There won't ever be user-defined priorities in NM.

Old comment, no rationale. Time for a change ?

Instead of full-blown network prioritization which would involve a gui
to sort connections and careful thinking to ensure that the connection
selection stays predictable, would it be enough to add a boolean
"preferred" field ?

In the original example, "home" and "work" would be marked as preferred,
while "beeline-wifi-free" would not.

A quick glance at the NetworkManager source code makes me think that it
shouldn't be too hard to add a "preferred" attribute to network
connections, and to use it in the connection_sort function (nm-
settings.c). It would be shown as a checkbox in nm-applet.

If more granularity is required, a numeric "priority" attribute could be
used instead. If it seems to confusing to expose a numeric connection
priority value to the users, it could still be shown as a "preferred"
checkbox in nm-applet, leaving it to power users to edit the numeric
value manually in the configuration file if required.

Quote from upstream report
(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=359556):

There won't ever be user-defined priorities in NM.  NM connects to the last
network you've connected to that it can find.  When you connect, NM timestamps
the network, and it will first connect to the most recent network you have
chosen. NM 0.7 also matches security settings, so if you have a WPA-enabled
'linksys' and an open 'linksys' saved it will pick the right one.  0.7 also has
a connection editor that will allow for easy removal of networks, but with
0.6.5 you can also use gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /path/to/your/network to
remove it.

If you dont' want NM connecting to a network, remove it from the network list
and dont' manually connect to it again.

2012-11-21 Thread AirBreather
Mariano,

I do not believe that users such as myself are requesting that NM should
"upgrade" an active connection from B to A when it detects that this is
possible.

The request is to allow users to configure the order in which NM
automatically tries to connect to networks.  If I have a T3 line to my
house behind a wireless router, I don't want NM to choose anything else
when that is in range.

Similarly, if I carry around a portable hotspot device with metered
bandwidth, I don't want NM choose that unless no other known wireless
networks are in range.

I don't want NM to automatically interrupt my Call of Duty session (or
whatever the kids are playing these days) to connect to a different
network if the currently connected network is working just fine.

2012-11-21 Thread Mariano Dupont
The problem is not so simple:

Once I've ordered the list of networks (A, B, C), suppose I'm connected
to network A, and nm detects there is no connectivity (i.e. no ping to
gateway, or DNS), then it should fallback to network B.

The problem here is how to decide when to go back to network A without
interrupting connectivity.

1) The easy way is interrupting it, say, 30 minutes later and check. All 
connections will be lost. 
2) Other possibility is stay on B until it loses connectivity.
3) The hard way, and I guess is not possible yet, is that the NIC and the 
driver support virtual STAtions, this way it can associate to multiple APs 
simultaneously. In that case we could even round robin connections and have 
bandwidth incremented.

Mariano

  network in alphabetical order. But at my home NM connects to slow and
  unstable free network and I want to connect to my own wifi router. I
  suggest to add some priorities to different networks to set the order
  which network to connect to.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 366780] Re: Please provide a mechanism whereby Wi-Fi networks can be prioritized

2012-11-15 Thread Mirko Guarnier
Same here, University WIFI should have priority but if that WIFI is not
available the automatic connection should fallback to my ad-hoc
connection

Any workaround?
