Any news about this? In intrepid the network-manager now has checkboxes
as mentioned by Motin.

This bug's name and/or summary needs to be renamed to reflect what
actually is the reported complaint... Or split, depending on what we are
aiming at.
Maybe: "Radio buttons should be changed to checkboxes or other symbol in
nm-applet" ?
However, having checkboxes would make it necessary to first
reconnecting should be possible by just clicking a second time on the
same network ... none won't happen for network-manager 0.6.5. for 0.7
(hopefully in hardy) we might take a look though.

The discussion is veering away from the initial complaint -- where the user's
action may cause an unintentional disconnect from the network. Fortunately,
there is a single solution to everyone's problem:
Add a RadioButton for a "None" option.
This gives us the ability to:
- Select None to d
The reason that I suggested right clicking ask if you want to disconnect
the network is because I accidentally connected to my neighbors
wireless and I wanted to disconnect from that one and not connect to
another but still have the wireless enabled.

ruewan, isn't it enough for that to just uncheck "enable wireless" on
the right-click menu?

I also want to a way to disconnect from a wireless network that I am
already connected to. Both right and left clicking on an active
connection resets the connection. Maybe left clicking should ask you if
you want to disconnect from the network.

I've found that I often want an explicit disconnect button - to make it
so I'm not connected to any network. I think that there should be a menu
option "Disconnect from all networks" as a radio button, and that
selecting the same radio button twice should do nothing.

Murray, I agree. I left the bug open for that reason. I just classified
it as not critical for the feisty release. :)

You might not think that people have a reason to do it, but they do it
anyway. A confirmation dialog would prevent this problem, and is more
forgiving than just calling it user error.
> Indeed I find this very handy to reconnect
I agree, that capability is desirable to have. My problem is with the
user interface choice.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_button
identifies a radio button as a graphical user interface widget that allows the
user to choose one of a predefined s
Indeed I find this very handy to reconnect if the current connection has
died for some reason, and that's in fact the intention. Since there is
no other reason why you'd want to click on an already active connection,
this is no big deal IMHO.
Stephen, the 'multiple active connections' issue is bug
I think it should ask if this is what I want.

I am not so sure about the intentional behavior. It disconnects
and reconnects when you try to configure the dial-up modem as well. Of course,
the dial-up modem configuration does not

Yes, this is the intended behavior. I find it very useful the way it is
as when a DHCP server is not functioning correctly, you can just
reselect the network to reinitialize and reconnect to it. If the ability
to reconnect by choosing the network again is removed, a repair button
would need to be a
Chris, you can use both connections at once. You can receive a signal
from the wired NIC and then broadcast from your wireless card to use
your computer as a wireless router. You can do the opposite as well:
grab onto a wireless signal and pass it on to another computer over a
wire (for instance,
I'm fairly certain this is intentional behavior. Certainly I _prefer_
the current behavior because I can force a reinitialization of a network
connection manually.

I can confirm this pretty easily, what I can't confirm is if this is a
bug or an intended feature so I'm going to mark it as wishlist. I could
see how some people might enjoy the easy method of reconnecting easily,
but I too would prefer it as a seperate option.
As far as the two internet connect
Also of note, this method of disconnecting and reconnecting upon
clicking an already selected option is not exclusive to a wired
connection. I can reproduce it the same way be clicking on an already
connected wireless connection.
