The bug is still exists. When my wifi connection is disconnected from
the access point i.e the access point is restarted or its signals
channel is changed, the network icon after re connect again turns to the
two arrows Up/Down i.e like wired connection through the Ethernet. Also,
my wifi link becomes unavailable in the network list in-spite of being
connected to it, but other neighbors networks are still listed. i.e I
could able to access my access point web interface through 192.168.1.1
I have Ubuntu 16.04.2 and NetWorkManager 1.2.6-0ubuntu0.16.04.1 which is
descriped in synaptic like the following:
```
network-manager
network management framework (daemon and userspace tools)
```

Title:
Network Manager regularly thinks my wifi is a wired device
Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When I boot up my network doesn't automatically connect. I instead
see when I click the network manager applet that it's got no Wifi
devices listed. It thinks my wireless card is an ethernet device.
This isn't true and I have no ethernet devices in my system.
When this situation happens if I issue /etc/init.d/network-manager
restart it comes back up thinking it's a wireless device and happily
associates with my saved SSID.
