Dustin,

I just wrote a quick patch for this, but it will still need some testing. So far, all I know is that it builds. This patch is in nm-applet rather than NM itself since we want to keep having NM report things as they are (see upstream bug) :)

I don't happen to have a Free Public WiFi network near me and probably won't until Thrusday. If you already know of a place where you can test this fix or have such a network near you, could you try to use the linked branch to create a package? I'll do the same on my end as soon as I can find one such location.

FWIW, bzr bd should be sufficient to build the binaries, or I can provide a pre-made package somewhere, at your convenience ;)

For testing purposes, it's probably best to not use a custom package like this until we know there is a "Free Public WiFi" in range, then quickly switch and restart the applet to see if the issue is fixed.
