[phone] Toggling WiFi leaves both GSM and WiFi connected

[Michał Sawicz]

This is one more that's probably not in the right place... please reassign as appropriate.

Steps:
* disable WiFi via switch in the Network menu
* wait for a GSM data connection
* enable WiFi again
* rinse'n'repeat

Expected:
* GSM connection is dropped whenever WiFi is available

Current:
* sometimes GSM is dropped, but sometimes it remains on, even if unused

The routes and all go through WiFi, so traffic should be fine, but the icon still says H for me, and there is a ccmni0 interface up.

Please find attached logs from network-test-session when I switched WiFi off and on.

Hmm on second look, the icon did change to WiFi after a longer time (like 30s at least), but IIUC the GSM connection is still kept on, which feels like a waste of battery?

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Antti Kaijanmäki (kaijanmaki)]

the icon changing is a separate bug #1339792 and the fact that ccmni0 being kept alive is intended behaviour. It does not consume battery even though it's visible.
