Sensible. If that were the case, a solution would rely in the capacity of the network manager to detect that the new route does not work,(and that the previous one did)
My naïve solution would be to ping a reliable server (I use 8.8.8.8) and delete the new route if it timesout. Additionally, if the new cabled connection were successful initially, but later stopped working, shouldn't the network fallback to the previous connection? A similar thing already happens when multiple dns servers are specified. 2 functionalities failed for this bug to occur. (a third one if you count my phone presenting itself as a router when it can't do that, but that's not within Ubuntu's jurisdiction... is it?) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1879211 Title: Charging my cellphone through usb breaks internet connection.
