Public bug reported:

The status doesn't update unless I reconnect the connection. Sometimes
it says GSM when I have way more bandwidth than what 2.xG supports (See
the screenshot). Other times it says HSUPA when bandwidth is at a snails
pace.

The status looks like this:
3 Internet (3 UK GSM)
3 Internet (3 UK HSUPA)

If the status correctly updated, this would be a useful feature. When
bandwidth goes slow, I would be able to click on the NM applet and check
to see whether I've lost HSUPA signal and fallen back to GSM.

Ideally the status should be refined to support these 4 values:
* '2.5G - GPRS'
* '2.75G - EDGE'
* '3G - UMTS'
* '3.5G - HSPA'
