Hi there, the problem is even worse. Even the simplest network connections fail most of the time, as the value to be set for connection.gateway-ping- timeout varies randomly.
Steps to reproduce the problem (almost) consistently on Kubuntu Xenial are: # Right-click systray/Networks # Click Configure Network Connections # In the Connection Editor, click "Add+". # Click Wired Ethernet. # Click OK # If the connection really get added, you've been lucky: A plausible number was randomly set for connection.gateway-ping-timeout. # Either retry from step 3 until adding fails or edit your new connection, change the name and click OK. The most tries I ever needed to get the error message was 3 times. And please take a closer look at the config of the original bug reporter: "connection.gateway-ping-timeout=71" ist explicitly set, but NM tries to set a ridiciously large value which is not in the original config!
