Since gnome-shell is the registered "secret agent" for NetworkManager when working in a Gnome desktop environment, this still sounds like a gnome-shell bug. In fact it sounds like https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=760999 If you don't have a different desktop environment, can you try upgrading to gnome-shell 3.20 from unstable? That may be what fixed the issue for me, and I am unable to downgrade to verify that now. -- mike
