A ? used in this manner suggests the system is confused about something, and wants me to know that it's confused, hoping I can do something about it. So I'd expect there'd be a notification or a way to get more information about what the confusion is about.

It's either a Fedora infrastructure problem, or a NetworkManager one. Reassigning to NetworkManager. See bug 750268 for a follow-up on the icon not being self-explanatory enough.

In this case, the connectivity check failed because of the SSL connection. It is anyway a bad idea to use https for connectivity checking. We fixed that upstream in bug 747866 and commit http://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/commit/?id=2a3a4eb16f9119bf434a28adc94c2684da8fd5e4 Note that this is largely a configuration issue. So, users must rectify their configuration, or (if the distribution installed configuration snippets) the distribution must fix the configuration file. For downstream/Fedora, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1176316 this will be done. Closing BZ as fixed.

Why? It protects the user's privacy, at least a tiny bit. > We fixed that upstream in bug 747866 and commit > http://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/commit/ > ?id=2a3a4eb16f9119bf434a28adc94c2684da8fd5e4 If by "fixed" you mean "worked around", then yes. > Note that this is largely a configuration issue.

This really isn't fixed.

It protects the user's privacy, at least a tiny bit. there is nothing private about the connectivity-check request. Especially does the HTTP header not contain fields beside: GET /static/hotspot.txt HTTP/1.1 Host: fedoraproject.org Connection: close Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome- shell/+bug/1722256/comments/7 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2015-09-08T15:00:14+00:00 Thomas Haller wrote: (In reply to Bastien Nocera from comment #6) > (In reply to Thomas Haller from comment #5) > > (In reply to Bastien Nocera from comment #2) > > > > > > [ 3920.153840] f21v.localdomain NetworkManager[826]: <info> Connectivity > > > check for uri 'https://fedoraproject.org/static/hotspot.txt' failed with > > > 'Peer failed to perform TLS handshake'. > > > > In this case, the connectivity check failed because of the SSL connection. > > > > It is anyway a bad idea to use https for connectivity checking. > > Why? It protects the user's privacy, at least a tiny bit. it's a bad idea, because it works bad with detecting captive portals. And a portal might not handle SSL connections at all (which means we would detect "no-connectivity", instead of "portal"). If the portal does handle SSL connections it present an invalid certificate and the connection fails again (and to NM it's again not clear that this indicates "portal"). Also, we warn now about HTTPS use: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/commit/?id=eab32a5252e82361a563154cd8bfc3949aaad119 Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome- shell/+bug/1722256/comments/8 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2015-09-08T15:27:34+00:00 Bugzilla-x wrote: (In reply to Thomas Haller from comment #8) > (In reply to Bastien Nocera from comment #6) > > (In reply to Thomas Haller from comment #5) > > > (In reply to Bastien Nocera from comment #2) > > > > > > > > [ 3920.153840] f21v.localdomain NetworkManager[826]: <info> > > > > Connectivity > > > > check for uri 'https://fedoraproject.org/static/hotspot.txt' failed with > > > > 'Peer failed to perform TLS handshake'. > > > > > > In this case, the connectivity check failed because of the SSL connection. > > > > > > It is anyway a bad idea to use https for connectivity checking. > > > > Why?
