Title:
Network Manager allows connecting to mobile broadband when "enable
mobile broadband" is not checked
Status in Network Manager GNOME Applet:
New
Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
The Network Manager applet in Natty has an "Enable Mobile Broadband"
check in addition to "Enable Networking" and "Enable Wireless". When
"Enable Mobile Broadband" is not checked, the mobile broadband
connections are still listed (unlike "Enable Wireless" that when not
checked no wireless networks are listed"), furthermore one can start a
mobile broadband connection and it connects successfully even when
"Enable Mobile Broadband" is not checked.
The only difference in behavior that I can detect is that when "Enable
Mobile Broadband" is not checked, then when a mobile broadband
connection is active it is listed in the applet menu with the text
"not enabled" (even though it clearly is enabled).
