Bug Description

I've setup the VPN to autoconnect on login. When I log in, the connection keeps failing to establish. If I disconnect from the network it's trying to connect to and click connect manually, it is able to connect to the network and the VPN straight away.

Essentially, every time I log in I have to manually disconnect and reconnect to a network - and the autoconnecting bit fails to do its job.
