after returning from suspend, nm-applet needs to be restarted to show 'beam' icon and wifi items in networkmanager applet menu.
This bug are not at duplicate of bug #1574347, that has now been fixed.
We are a group of users that all subscribed to bug #1574347 but it ended up having several issues, that got fixed except this.

I confirm that problems with the network manager as described above persist after the 1.2.0 update. For me the problems occur at random times and do not seem to be strongly correlated with suspend. If a wifi connection is already established then it usually continues to work even though the network manager does not display it (or any other available).
My system is Thinkpad T530 with an Intel 6205 wifi controller.

I'm being disconnected after leaving the computer idle for a minute or so. However, while downloading a large file or playing an online game, for example, the connection goes on and never quits. As soon as the downloads finish... it's gone. Network-Manager shows connected, but ownCloud sync stops, can't connect to websites or check for updates. To bring it back, I must reconnect to my AP. It's pretty annoying when combined with the suspend issue. Very bad bug. Hope this gets solved or I'll have to use Windows 10... and that's a game over.

It's now working, I think. Downloaded and installed latest linux kernel updates (listed below), restarted and performed several suspends without losing connection or list of APs. Please confirm.

If I restart the network-manager service, it recovers until the next suspend:
sudo systemctl restart network-
On boot, the systems do show a list of wireless networks, but with the Ethernet connected icon. They are unable to join any WiFi network due to 'Insufficient privileges' and do not automatically join known networks. Once the user is logged in the applet works, until it is put into, and recovers from, suspend.

Dear Ubuntu developer/
However:
Regardless of what/where is the root cause of this bug, the net result is a critical usability flaw of YOUR product. So how come you are not proactive at all? How can it be that an allegedly stable (and an LTS at that) version of Ubuntu has a known critical usability flaw and nobody takes care of it for 2 months?

I have made an interesting observation. I only see this problem on my Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Carbon 1st Gen, but not with the X1 Carbon 2nd and 3rd Gen. I have all three and they are all running Ubunity 16.04 x64. So maybe this depends on the version of the wi-fi hardware? All these laptops have Intel wi-fi hardware, but newer versions in 2nd and 3rd Gen. I'm still having wi-fi hiccups after resume with the 1st Gen machine after adding proposed.
I'm trying @Joakim Koed 's script now.
Cip Man (cipman-p) wrote : | #43 |
For me 'systemctl restart NetworkManager.
So my workaround is to run it as cron job after reboot:
> sudo crontab -e
add the line:
@reboot sleep 10 && systemctl restart NetworkManager.
This instructs the system to wait for 10 seconds after reboot and then restart the service; experiment with the 10 seconds, might not be enough for slower/older laptops.

Further to this post I made, I have to retract that statement to say the fault still occurs.
I have doing a fair bit of my own testing with this bug - whether this assists or not with a fix not sure, but here are my obseravtions.
Lenevo x220, latest iwlwifi driver [18.168.6.1], Ubuntu 16.04.1 (clean install), latest stable kernel 4.6.5, and latest Network manager 1.2.2-0ubuntu6.
I can report the following:
After Suspend then resume, fault still occurs. Also see nmcli below, output of Nm icon is the 2 vertical arrows (not the wifi symbol) and NO WIFI NETWORKS LISTED - but connected to wifi:
xxx@xxx-
DEVICE TYPE STATE CONNECTION
wlp3s0 wifi connected Lxxxx 1
enp0s25 ethernet unavailable --
lo loopback unmanaged --
xxx@xxx-
Also, Subsequent to installing 16.04.1, I tried a clean install of 16.10 Yaketty Yak. Alpha 1
Only 5 days of testing, but many suspend-resume cycles over the course of a normal work day.
I can report that the problem appeared to not appear with this config!
I had to then subsequently go back to 16.04.1, as the Alpha 1 build was too unstable for my usage.
HTH

Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre (cyphermox) wrote : | #61 |
Joakim, please file your own bug report (or point to yours if you already created one). Despite things looking similar, it doesn't mean it's the same issue. There are many different failure scenarios for NetworkManager and wireless devices, some of which are caused by devices failing to scan appropriately on their own after resume.
Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre (cyphermox) wrote : | #62 |
In general, please run 'sudo iw dev wlan0 scan' (or a variation of this command with the right interface name for your system). Your system should, from there, show scan results in the nm-applet menu.
If this *does not* solve your issue, please file a new bug report, and report here what the number is. Do not reuse some other bug report someone else may have filed; even though things look the same, doesn't mean they are.
If this works, we've effectively established that the issue is in the scanning logic. We've looked at the code in NetworkManager before, and these issues seem to be more prevalent in Intel hardware, which makes me suspect the Intel firmware a whole lot -- which means we're not any more advanced in solving this issue than before. Doesn't mean NM isn't wrong, just that the more likely culprit is the kernel or firmware. There are already many bugs open on this.
If you're seeing this issue, but you're not using an Intel wireless card, then please speak up, so we know whether to look at other pieces of the system.

The linked upstream bug was gnome-bugs #767317, removing for now until we can isolate *one issue per bug*, rather than be looking at multiple different things all dumped in one large heap of comments.
Again, if you think you're seeing this issue, please file *your own* bug; it's easy for developers to mark bugs as duplicate, but much harder to split them up.

That being said, I have some new information for you. Regarding this bug (not the one with lockscreen!)
- I CAN'T reproduce with broadcom, seems you might be right about Intel wifi.
- With Intel I can reproduce right after a reboot with using suspend from menu or losing the lid.
- sudo systemctl suspend does not seem to be affected. Strange as that is.
I have also downloaded all the new firmware drivers from kernel and put in /var/lib/ it was messing quite a few, dmesg with errors. Same problem.
Hope this helps you :)
Joakim Koed (vooze) wrote : | #65 |
Okay new information.
If I restart network-manager right after booting (before suspend) I can't reproduce.
So maybe make a script to delay network-mananger at boot with solve all problems?

A complete re-installation of the entire operating system seems to have done the trick for me (call it a workaround if you want)! I used the exact same source (i.e. Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS 64 bit from a USB stick) and connecteded my wifi during installation. I also restored my home folder (including configuration files). Voilà, no longer any arrows in the applet tray or other connection issues! The network also returns immediately after suspend. I have only used this configuration for two days, so I can't leave any guarantees. I will return, though, if any errors reoccur.
Joakim Koed (vooze) wrote : | #68 |
I just tested with the new 1.2.2 network-manager from proposed. Same result.
Even tried creating a new user, same result.
Peter S:
Can you try the following:
- Reboot the machine and login.
- Then suspend, either by closing the lid or pressing the suspend in the menu. (running suspend in terminal does not seem to be affected.)
The reason I want you to do this, is because of you restart network-manager before suspending, it does not seem to make the ethernet-icon appear.
Relevant: Is ubuntu using upstart to suspend, when pressing suspend and closing the lid, instead of systemd-suspend? This could be the reason.

If you have issues with wireless not coming up after suspend, please run 'sudo iw dev wlan0 scan', and see if the applet then changes (it may take a few seconds) to wireless and displays the list of APs. It does not seem to me like any other workarounds are likely to work for everyone.
If you have any scripts that restart NetworkManager or the applet, please remove them for testing the above workaround, and to file a new bug -- otherwise things aren't as clear as they should be for us to understand what is going on.
The issue appears to be limited to the Intel driver, so people should *most definitely* file their own separate bug reports against "linux", so that we can know exactly each of the different models of wireless cards are affected.

Running 'sudo iw dev wlan0 scan' does work around the issue for me. I have this issue on two computers, they have the following wireless cards from Intel:
Intel Wireless 7260 (rev bb)

Just to be clear, should I be creating a new bug for each of these two cards? Would this be the 'linux' package, or 'iwlwifi'?

Kernel 4.4.0-43-generic

This is a bog-standard install with all the defaults (i.e. LightDM, Unity, ..).
(I have also tried all this with my normal setup, which is booting to console (no LightDM) and using startx to start i3 (no Unity). Exact same issue.)
On laptop resume wifi connection still works but nm-applet no longer shows a list of available wifi networks. However, 'nmcli dev wifi list' *DOES* show the normal list of the couple of dozens networks around me.
The suggested workaround 'sudo iw dev wlan0 scan' (or, for me, wlp3s0) has no effect. It shows info about the networks in the console but changes nothing in nm-applet.
If I simply kill nm-applet and start it again, everything is fine. (I saw someone above killing nm-applet and starting it as root. You should start it as your normal user.)
I came up with a simple workaround. If you're in the same boat (i.e., if "killall nm-applet && nm-applet &" makes it work again), the following might work for you too. Add the following to a new file, /lib/systemd/
#!/bin/sh
USER=yourusername
export DISPLAY=:0
case $1 in
post/*)
su $USER -c 'killall nm-applet; sleep 4; nm-applet' &
;;
esac
Then make it executable: chmod +x /lib/systemd/
Then try suspending and resuming. The script simply kills nm-applet on resume, waits 4 seconds, and starts nm-applet again. (It appears that nm-applet will still b0rk if executed too early after resume, thus the sleep -- if it doesn't work, try a higher value.)
It's an ugly solution (I also tried to do it as a systemd service, but no dice, and my patience was running low) -- but it's the best I've got at the moment...

Sorry, spoke a bit to soon. My workaround above doesn't actually work when I do LightDM+Unity, only when I do text boot (i.e. when I've done systemctl set-default multi-user.target (instead of graphical.target)), and start i3 with startx.
(Actually, when running Unity, the script *does* execute and *does* kill and start nm-applet again, but nm-applet doesn't show up as an icon in the taskbar. I don't know why.)
systemctl restart network-manager always fixes the issue and can easily be put in a systemd unit file (see e.g. https:/
Also, I seem to have made a mistake in the script above - change post/*) to post)

Dear all,
I have discovered something that may not have been reported in here so far:
After a fresh boot, when you suspend the machine, there will be arrows after waking up.
If you do "service network-manager restart" once, you'll get the WiFi icon back. From now on you can suspend as many times you like, the WiFi icon will stay there!
However, the next time you reboot all this magic is gone.
Can anyone reproduce this?
rjb (ron-buehler) wrote : | #107 |
After performing some more tests:
The triggers for the network-manager showing the arrow icon and no WiFi networks are:
- Suspend mode (suspend/wake up)
- Hardware wireless button (turn WiFi off/an)
- Wireless network in network-manager GUI (deactivate/
- Network in network-manager GUI (deactivate/
btw: Lock screen has no influence.
When I do "service network-manager restart" once (independent of network-manager state) I'm getting rid of the problem. After this I can do everything listed above without loosing the WiFi icon and I'm always able to see the wireless networks around.
As soon as I do any of this, it's back to default (meaning that next time you do anything of the listed actions above, the arrow icon will appear and you won't be able to see other wireless networks:
- reboot
- shut down and boot
- log out and log in
Again: Lock screen has no influence.

I still consider this a bug though, since all my other devices on the same wifi network are working flawlessly. Couldn't it be some bad implementation of the Intel Wifi driver within the kernel?

I'm still not sure that the problems I experience are completely unrelated to network-manager. I seem to have a more stable connection with WICD, so far. But I have to try it for another few weeks before I can say anything for sure.

@Peter S (peter-sevemark):
First of all I agree on your comment #114: We need to test suggested scenarios so we can converge to a solution or approach to tackle the issue.
So I have installed WICD (conform issue #109) and removed the default network manager.
summary of my issue: in most cases no wifi connection after suspend and no possibility to make a new connection. I am using a Lenovo X220 with Ubuntu 16.04.
WICD gives me the opportunity to enable the WIFI connection after suspend. however I have to do it manually by starting the WICD application. The setting to make a connection automatically does not work.
I will test the robustness of WICD in relation to my issue further
Do you have a solution for the fact that WICD does not connect automatically?
Thanks

@fourdollars, I installed your ppa in #120 above. Unfortunately I could not detect any significant change compared to the latest released versions. Following are my notes from my tests. The test PC has a fresh Ubuntu 16.04 install with all updates. The wifi interface name is wlp1s0 and there is no wired ethernet hw in the PC.
First tests done before installing the test ppa.
The tests where run in the exact sequence as listed.
Action. - Result
1 Initial start of PC. - nm-applet ok
2 Radio HW off-on. - nm-applet not connected, no APs listed
3 service network-manager restart. - after long delay (>30s), connected, APs listed
4 suspend/resume. - not connected, no APs listed
5 service network-manager restart. - nm-applet ok
6 radio HW off-on. after long delay, works ok, APs listed
7 suspend/resume. - after long delay, works ok, APs listed
8 radio hw off-on. - nm-applet ok
9 shut down
10 start PC. - nm-applet ok
11 disable/enable networking (nm-applet menu option). nm-applet shows up/down arrow, no APs 12 listed, connection working
12 service network-manager restart. - nm-applet ok
13 suspend/resume. - nm-applet ok
14 disable/enable networking. - long delay until connecting, APs listed
15 Shut down
Started PC
Installed fourdollars ppa and verified that "test1" versions had been installed.
16 Restarted PC. - nm-applet ok
17 radio hw off/on. - nm-applet not connected, no APs listed, after very long delay up/down arrows
18 killall nm-applet && nm-applet & exit. - nm-applet ok
19 radio hw off/on. - not connected, no APs listed, after long delay up/down arrows, connection working
20 service network-manager restart. - nm-applet ok
21 suspend/resume. - nm-applet ok
22 disable/enable networking. - nm-applet ok
23 suspend/resume. - nm-applet ok
24 shut down
25 start PC. nm-applet ok
26 suspend/resume. - up/down arrows, no APs listed, connected
27 killall nm-applet && nm-applet & exit. - nm-applet ok
28 suspend/resume. - up/down arrows, no APs, connected
29 service network-manager restart. - nm-applet ok
30 radio hw off/on. - nm-applet ok
31 Restart PC. - nm-applet ok
32 radio hw off/on. - not connected, no APs listed
33 killall nm-applet && nm-applet & exit. - not connected, no APs listed
34 service network-manager restart. - long delay until connected, APs listed
35 radio hw off/on. - nm-applet ok
I hope these tests can be of some use... as noted earlier, it appears as if the problem goes away after "sudo service network-manager restart". The "killall nm-applet && nm-applet & exit" will make the nm-applet work ok, but only until next disabling event be it suspend/resume, hw switch off/on or sw disable/enable.
In addition to this documented test I have experienced the two problem symptoms (no wifi connection and or incorrect network icon and no APs listed in the nm-applet) on 7 different PCs all with Ubuntu 16.04 with latest updates. All the PCs have different HW (incl wifi) and are of widely different ages. In fact I only have one PC that has not exhibited any of the problems. That PC is running Lubuntu 16.04.
It is my experience that the "sudo service network-manager restart" command will correct the problem situation about 70% of the times and...

First of all, you just cost me a few hours trying to get my network

Second, if the default network manager system that comes with distributions

What's different now is that the WiFi is already conected on the login screen with the arrow icon. As soon as I login, it's the WiFi icon. When I suspend and return I have arrows again.

The only solution that has worked is restarting the network-manager service, however if I attach an USB WiFi adapter based on rtl8187, the icon becomes normal and I can choose a network for that adapter. The Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6205 remains unusable.
Also the interface name is wlp3s0 instead of the usual wlan0 on other installations I've made.
If I try $ ifdown wlp3s0 results in Unknown interface wlp3s0

Network Manager is the culprit, not anyone's routers. This is evident by the fact that earlier versions of Ubuntu didn't experience this issue, this issue happens regardless of which router we're connecting to, it happens regardless of which location we are at, and the underlying issue is that Network Manager cannot see ANY access points, not just the one we normally connect to. There is literally no scenario in which it is someone's router that is causing this.

After I gave up and shifted to a wired connection, I noticed that I'd get
disconnected periodically but then it would reconnect successfully. It
seems some drivers manage to reconnect and other drivers don't.
So there may be _two_ bugs:
1) A bug that results in occasional loss of connection.
2) A bug in one or more drivers that disables automatic reconnection.

I have observed this issue on both Broadcom and Atheros (ath10k) wireless cards, and even reproduced it on the current stable 4.9.13 kernel, thus it would appear to be a higher-level issue. Running 'sudo iw dev wlan0 scan' works around it every time.

I also had the issue on a fresh Ubuntu 16.04, the applet not working properly after resuming from suspend.
But I may have something to help here. A few days ago, I didn't had the issue on a previous install, so I tried the two changes I made on that one suspend-related.
First, I enabled hibernation, but it didn't change anything, still the bug after resume.
And then, I installed tlp, basic with no modification, and it now works properly every time.
Hope that may help.

(nm-applet:2962): nm-applet-CRITICAL **: get_menu_
The laptop is dell i1720 - if it at all matters - and it's a Peppermint 7, with all currently known secure updates applied, and Xenial "under the hood".
Can anyone please provide a fix, even an unofficial one ?
Thank you

What's the output of `nmcli d` when the problem happens?

I still have this bug on Dell XPS13 9360 with ath10k and Lenovo T530 with iwlwifi
Both with:

It's 100% reproducible. If there are any patches/proposed versions - I can help with testing

It can not prove if it is a linux kernel bug or not even when you can recover it from the UI.

Sure thing. But 2 more points that maake me believe it's user space bug:
1. nmcli dev shows correct information (I believe under the hood it uses the same syscalls as nm-applet)
2. I have this bug on a wide range of kernels from 4.4 to 4.15 We completely the same behaviour. On 2 laptops with different wi-fi adapters (ath10k and iwlwifi kernel modules)
