Hi all,
I'm getting a unreliable behavior with Simple.Connect, the first call will
succeed, but further calls won't.
Going through the logs with Tambet, we have noticed that there is something
weird going on with IPv6 code:

Oct 6 10:27:04 lenovo NetworkManager: <info> Marking connection 'Vodafone

As you can see, it starts stage 4/5 IP6, then goes to 3/5 of IP. After that
I get a pppd_timed_out because it times out. It seems there is something
weird going related to IPv6.
Tambet recommended me to create a simple test case that, issues a
Connect.Simple call and then starts pppd manually without the ipparam
argument. This results in a better reliability ( 5 successful connections in
a row). Attached you can find the script.
At this stage I'm quite lost, Tambet has mentioned that there was a "recent"
ipv6 merge that could be related to it. Any hints / ideas about what to try?
Best regards,
