[Bug 863569] [NEW] software-center (Ubuntu 11.10 beta2) does not recognize internet connection made using wvdial

[Santanu Chatterjee]

Public bug reported:

I have the feeling that software-center must be relying only on some
dbus signal to know of availability of net connection. wvdial probably
does not use dbus.
