I can confirm this pretty easily, what I can't confirm is if this is a bug or an intended feature so I'm going to mark it as wishlist. I could see how some people might enjoy the easy method of reconnecting easily, but I too would prefer it as a seperate option.
As far as the two internet connections at one time, I didn't think that was technically possible. Yes, you can theoretically have both enabled and open but the computer only lets you use one at a time. Being that this program is a network manager, it would want you to choose the one you want to be the active connection. Anyways, If I am wrong in that regard I urge you to make a spec for that one as a feature request (see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeatureSpecifications ). To reproduce: 1) Use nm-applet and connect to a wired connection 2) Click the already selected option of a "Wired Network" Expected Behavior: Everything should remain as it is. Actual Result: User is disconnected and then reconnected. ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist Status: Unconfirmed => Confirmed -- Clicking on already-selected Wired Network causes disconnect https://launchpad.net/bugs/86186 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
