HARDWARE (XA2, X10, X10 II, …): XA2 Plus Dual SIM
UI LANGUAGE:en_GB
REGRESSION: (compared to previous public release: Yes, No, ?): Probably not
DESCRIPTION:
As soon as I activate VPN, keys like Internet.NetworkType and Internet.NetworkState (provided by org.freedesktop.contextkit) become empty, no longer containing values like “WLAN” and “connected”. I can’t imagine this is by design, as I am still connected to Internet and using my WLAN or GPRS connection and the connectivity itself is fine. I am facing this in my app WelkWeer | OpenRepos.net — Community Repository System for example, which checks for an internet connection this way.
PRECONDITIONS:
VPN active
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
- Start VPN connection
- Check for contextkit key values, WelkWeer | OpenRepos.net — Community Repository System can be a testcase (Dutch “geen internet connectie” popup message at start, without VPN no error message displayed)
EXPECTED RESULT:
Keys like Internet.NetworkState should return “connected”, not an empty value
ACTUAL RESULT:
Networkstate of networktype info is no longer available
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
I am (successfully) connecting to an OpenVPN server located at my home, tested using wireless and cellular.
