Added info... The icmp6_send events seems to coincide with the DNS queries to daisy.ubuntu.com. I'm not quite sure why the kernel is complaining about IPv6 stuff, as it is working just fine. Connecting to https://www.v6.facebook.com/ and https://ipv6.google.com/ come up with no problem using the IPv6 tunnel I mentioned in my previous post.

Andy Whitcroft points out that the NETLINK_ROUTE socket set up by GNetworkMonitor will fire events every time an ARP entry appears or disappears. Unfortunately, we currently need an additional layer of connectivity checking because checking NetworkManager's state for CONNECTED_GLOBAL is not enough to know whether we're really online. Ubuntu does not yet use the NetworkManager connectivity check [1]. The likely solution to this bug is a replacement for GNetworkMonitor in whoopsie. 1: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~daisy- pluckers/whoopsie/trunk/view/head:/src/connectivity.c#L326 Original report follows: Every few seconds, I see a dns query for daisy.ubuntu.com. After removing whoopsie, the traffic goes away.
