Bug Description
When connecting to a wireless network that has been configured to automaticall connect to a VPN in Ubuntu 13.04, I get this error in syslog:
Jul 2 20:05:14 zenbook nm-openvpn[15982]: write UDPv4 []: Network is unreachable (code=101)
This message repeats a few times, and then the connection is dropped. After that NetworkManager attempts to connect again. After a few tries, it manages to connect. Sometimes it succeeds on the first try.
While I was seeing this message, I decided to launch the "ip route" command, and I noticed that there was not default route. The only route I could see while the error was displaying was:
192.168.27.0/24 dev wlan0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.27.110 metric 9
Is it possible that there's some condition in the NetworkManager code such that the VPN connection is attempted before the underlying physical link is completely configured?
I have no issues with the VPN connection if I do not use DHCP, but only manual IP configuration.

I have not experienced this for some time. I'm running Ubuntu 13.10 at this point, and I'm not sure at which point it started working correctly.
