** Description changed: 16.04 amd64. The applet icon in the status area shows the opposing vertical arrows (Wired) symbol rather than the classic WiFi radiating symbol after adding a Wifi Access Point Hotspot, enabling it, having it fail to start (see bug #1579512 "Hotspot Access Point mode fails for 802.11a (5GHz) band"), and the system automatically reconnecting as a WiFi client to the local AP. The system doesn't even have a wired Ethernet interface. + The applet menu also does not display the connected WiFi network at all + although the Active Network Connections dialog displays the connection + parameters correctly. + $ nmcli gen STATE CONNECTIVITY WIFI-HW WIFI WWAN-HW WWAN connected full enabled enabled enabled enabled $nmcli con - NAME UUID TYPE DEVICE - wireless.lan.iam.tj 3779baf8-edd9-4960-bd72-813e6626fa52 802-11-wireless wlp2s0 - Access Point 05b2e2ee-0e93-4d00-b080-681b61d3e036 802-11-wireless -- - HTC One M8 Network b32ad6d1-d170-4bb3-9bf5-a77a54bc7773 bluetooth -- - + NAME UUID TYPE DEVICE + wireless.lan.iam.tj 3779baf8-edd9-4960-bd72-813e6626fa52 802-11-wireless wlp2s0 + Access Point 05b2e2ee-0e93-4d00-b080-681b61d3e036 802-11-wireless -- + HTC One M8 Network b32ad6d1-d170-4bb3-9bf5-a77a54bc7773 bluetooth -- + $ ip link show - 1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1 - link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 - 2: wlp2s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP mode DORMANT group default qlen 1000 - link/ether 34:02:86:fc:ad:55 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff - + 1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1 + link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 + 2: wlp2s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP mode DORMANT group default qlen 1000 + link/ether 34:02:86:fc:ad:55 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff + $ ip route show - default via 10.254.1.254 dev wlp2s0 proto static metric 600 - 10.254.1.0/24 dev wlp2s0 proto kernel scope link src 10.254.1.42 metric 600 + default via 10.254.1.254 dev wlp2s0 proto static metric 600 + 10.254.1.0/24 dev wlp2s0 proto kernel scope link src 10.254.1.42 metric 600 169.254.0.0/16 dev wlp2s0 scope link metric 1000
