Public bug reported:
Hi, I use Ubuntu 20.04 LTS version in my VivoBook 15_ASUS Laptop X507UF.
I live in a remote area where the only option for Internet is my cell
phones network data. I use this mobile internet via Wi-Fi connection.
The problem is, if I do not start the mobile Personal Hotspot before
starting my laptop the internet connection via Wi-Fi does not work. The
Wi-Fi network icon on top right corner comes with a question mark in the
middle.
The Internet does not come even after I restart the NetworkManager.
I get the Internet connection only after I restart my laptop. That
means,
1. At first I have to enable Personal Hotspot from my mobile and then
2. I have to start my laptop.
Not the other way around.
Some times I forget this and I need to restart my laptop over again to
get the Internet Connection.
I believe this is a bug in the Wi-Fi connection module and also in
NetworkManager. I mean restarting the NetworkManager should do the job
instead of restarting the whole laptop.
Thanks.
