Specification updated.
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Networking?action=diff&rev2=294&rev1=293>
** Changed in: indicator-network (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Triaged
** Description changed:
While testing the touch hotspot feature ( currently in silo-046 ) on
krillin ( stable, #24 ) and arale ( rc-proposed, #58 ), I noticed that
it's possible to trigger the phone to connect to an AP while the hotspot
is enabled.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Ensure that WiFi isn't connected to an AP
2. Enable hotspot
3. Display the network-menu and select an AP
Expected result:
You shouldn't be able to select any APs when hotspot is active.
Actual result:
The selected AP will trigger a connection attempt ( and succeed if open, or
secure and secrets have been saved ).
Note, one other minor nit is that the hotspot is shown in the network-
menu's list of APs. If this bug is fixed by not showing any APs in the
menu anymore, then this becomes moot.
