Re: NetworkManager applet: force connection list refresh

[Pedro Francisco <pedrogfrancisco@xxxxxxxxx>]

Actually I spoke to early, upon reboot things started not working again.

I'm back to killall modem-manager, nm-connection-editor, change something in the connection, save and then it appears on network dropdown.

Killing nm-applet won't work as Gnome-Shell doesn't use (though it is loaded it doesn't do anything)

But «service NetworkManager restart» does work.

I now have the following lines and seems to be working (sleep time is still under test :p)

Thank you!

# cat /etc/udev/rules.d/10-vodafone-fix.rules 

KERNEL=="usb0", RUN+="vodafone-fix.sh"

# cat /lib/udev/vodafone-fix.sh 

#!/bin/sh

eject /dev/sr1

/sbin/ifconfig usb0 -arp

sleep 10

service NetworkManager restart

Sorry for late jumping into the thread.
Prior to F15 there was NetworkManager service. In case of troubles
with nm I used to restart it:
service NetworkManager restart
Perhaps you could write udev-rule to trigger nm-applet restarting when
3G dongle plugged-in.
Just my 2 kopecks.
