I can also confirm this problem. You can disable wirless via network manager, ifconfig down, and it will still pop up, get an address, and hijack my routing and name servers. ps -ax shows a dhclient3 process tied to eth1. If I kill this process manually, the behavior stops. Is dhclient bringing the interface back up without telling network manager? -- network-manager insists on connecting to wireless network, even if wireless option is disabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/78491 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Also seeing this in a to this date fully updated Ubuntu Feisty. This is certainly also a problem when you reboot your computer. If you right- click the NetworkManager Applet you will see that wireless is enabled again even though it was disabled before the reboot. I think this is a quite serious bug, how do we get some attention to it?

I can reproduce this issue as well. This morning my resolv.conf kept changing. After the third time I did an ifconfig and found out that eth1(my wireless adaptor) had an IP and it wasn't supposed to. I didn't really try much other than just disabling eth1 and unloading the driver. -- network-manager insists on connecting to wireless network, even if wireless option is disabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/78491 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Just a comment to Thomas Poulsen. "iwconfig ra0 power off" does not turn off your device. It turns off power management for your device. Use this command instead "iwconfig ra0 txpower off" to turn stop the device from transmitting/receiving. -- network-manager insists on connecting to wireless network, even if wireless option is disabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/78491 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 78491] Re: network-manager insists on connecting to wireless network, even if wireless option is disabled
I have similar problem: I am unable to turn off the wireless device in feisty. If it is not configured it insists on being in roaming-mode and keeps transmitting. The activity shows up in the system-monitor applet, and can be followed in the TX-line in ifconfig. iwconfig ra0 power off did not work for me.

I have the same problem with nm-applet in feisty. Even then i disabled wireless networking it connects to an open wireless network. I checked the output of iwconfig and noticed that the wireless interface is transmitting. I then did a "iwconfig eth1 txpower off" and the problem is solved. I thought the idea was to disable the transmitter so it is possible to use the computer in areas there it is forbidden to have any active transmitters.

No, I'm talking about network manager. See attached screenshot. The screenshot is with wireless enabled. When I disable wireless using the options menu, then all the listed wireless networks go away in the applet, but after a while the network manager connects to an unsecured wireless network anyway. ** Attachment added: "screenshot of knetworkmanager" http://librarian.launchpad.net/5702515/test.png -- network-manager insists on connecting to wireless network, even if wireless option is disabled https://launchpad.net/bugs/78491 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 78491] Re: network-manager insists on connecting to wireless network, even if wireless option is disabled
William, I am confused by this sentence: > When both are connected it appears to ignore the wired connection. Just to be sure we are talking about the same point: The issue of this bug is not that the wired connection is ignored (which is a known problem), but that the network manager connects to an unsecured wireless network even if I disable wireless in the network manager applet. It takes a while for this effect to happen. It can easily take an hour or longer before the connection appears (i.e., for an hour I have normal wired network, and then suddenly the wireless kicks in). I don't have any gnome components installed, so can't test the gnome applet easily. How can I interact with the network manager without the network manager applet? -- network-manager insists on connecting to wireless network, even if wireless option is disabled https://launchpad.net/bugs/78491 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
Re: [Bug 78491] Re: network-manager insists on connecting to wireless network, even if wireless option is disabled
Yes, I was running Gnome with the Gnome Network Manager Applet. I have removed the kubuntu-desktop package and a few others, so uncertain whether or not I have enough bits to log into KDE if I wanted to. The way I confirm that this is happening is with two copies of the Gnome Network Monitor (not manager) applet, one monitoring eth0 (wired) and the other monitoring rausb0 (wireless). When both are connected it appears to ignore the wired connection. It behaves this way as well without the Gnome Network Manager applet installed (only the core bits of network manager) as well.

[Bug 78491] Re: network-manager insists on connecting to wireless network, even if wireless option is disabled
Update: It turns out that ifdown is only a temporary fix, after a while the wireless network always comes back. Is there any way to temporary switch off the network manager? The bug is pretty annoying when one is in a location where the wireless network is secured through a login web page, because it results in a sudden apparent loss of network connectivity (e.g., from one moment to the next, the email program cannot connect to server anymore, because network-manager has decided that now all network has to go through the wireless, which however needs to be authenticated through a web page). -- network-manager insists on connecting to wireless network, even if wireless option is disabled https://launchpad.net/bugs/78491 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
