Bug Description
I'm at an event where the wifi has a captive portal (hhonors) and a company wireless network (Canonical)
I connected to hhonors first when I arrived and so it often gets chosen when I boot my phone.
When I boot up or unlock the device I see no icons in the dash for many seconds.
I have to either wait a long while (a minute) or switch to a wireless network which doesn't have a captive portal.
I don't believe we should be dependent on a network connection to just show locally installed application icons.
summary: |
- Icons don't load when on a poor quality network + Application icons take a long time to load on slow network |
