Description Magnus Boman 2006-03-06 00:25:06 UTC 
After a suspend to RAM, Network Manager fails to re-establish the connection and I get a private IP address instead. Refreshing the connection will give me a correct ip address.
Comment 1 Robert Love 2006-03-06 16:38:55 UTC 
Wired or wireless?  What driver?

Can you please attach the NetworkManager log from during the problem (/var/log/NetworkManager)?
Comment 2 Magnus Boman 2006-03-06 23:30:03 UTC 
I'm using an IBM Thinkpad T41P. It's wired and the driver is e1000. The machine has to be put to sleep for an amount of time before the issue occurs. I will try to reproduce the issue again and send you the NetworkManager log file as soon as possible.

Comment 4 Robert Love 2006-03-13 20:11:44 UTC 
This is very odd.  My only guess is that NM is too quick in responding after resume.

What happens if you suspend and then resume, see that you have the zeroconf IP address, and then click on the current active wired interface in the applet, which will instruct the daemon to recycle the interface?  Does it now correctly obtain an IP address?

Thank you.
Comment 5 Magnus Boman 2006-03-13 20:51:20 UTC 
Yes, after a recycle the IP address is obtained.
Comment 6 Robert Love 2006-03-17 00:48:45 UTC 
Hi, Magnus!  I made some changes to the suspend code for beta 8.  Would you mind testing the NetworkManager in beta 8 whenever you get a chance and verifying if the problem still occurs?

I appreciate it.  Thank you.

I've been playing with this for a while now and it seems to work reliable now. Thanks!

Great, thank you!
