Sorry for not responding earlier. This problem may be fixed in the latest
version in unstable (30~pre9-3), since it retries settings that failed after
the interface is brought up. Can you check if you still experience this bug?

Making a single call for all settings is possible, but if one option fails the
result is indeterminate.
