Hotspot management code that subscribes to NM events [1] was recently moved from System Settings into indicator-network. The code is quite comprehensive whenever you have previously created a hotspot. Those affected by the bug should 1) see if they have previously created a hotspot and 2) see if by removing the hotspot, the issue is resolved (sudo rm /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/<hotspot name> && sudo reboot).
This wasn't an issue when the code was bound to System Setting's life cycle, but it may be an issue for the indicator.

HOW TO REPRODUCE: 1) Move to a place where many wifi hotspots are available 2) Connect the device via USB and run "phablet-shell" and then "dbus-monitor" 3) Use the device while keeping an eye on dbus-monitor output To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1480877/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
