Comment 0 for bug 1718931

When setting up VPN to auto connect with wifi (done through nm-connection-editor) the wifi never manages to connect. However if I unselect the auto connect option while it is attempting a reconnection then it manages to connect to both (wifi and VPN). Doing the connection manually also poses no issues
