Bug Description
Hello,
I'm running 23.04 with Gnome 44.0
I added Wireguard to the Network Manager, and when I click to enable the Wireguard connection with the switch, afterwards, the VPN icon is displayed, but the Wired network icon is grayed out with a question mark over it.
If I click on Wired and look at it, it says on the right; Disconnect
I am actually online right now submitting this report connected to Wireguard with the Network Wired icon grayed out and with the question mark.
I also use OpenVPN with the network manager and the Network Wired icon always displays correctly, not sure why it appears this way with Wireguard.
I hope this will get fixed soon.
I'm attaching a screen shot showing the Network Wired icon grayed out with the question mark.
THANKS
Sorry I failed to menton I have created ufw rules for Wireguard, so that the connection only gets routed over wireguard.
I know when I disable ufw the icon appears normal. When I enable ufw it will show ok now for around 5 mins, then it grays out with the question mark.
This is how I setup and created the ufw wireguard rules.
I don't see that these are configured wrong, for a single home user setup, to cause the applet to gray out.
/etc/default/ufw FORWARD_ POLICY= "DROP"
