what really matters for most applications (!= the applet, which is known
to show you disconnected unless a managed device is connected) is what
you get as the "main" online/offline state when running nm-tool. So I get :
nm-tool | head
NetworkManager Tool
State: connected
^^^ if this is connected, then all should be ok and applications started
probably assume that you are online.
