Hi,

It's nice that someone's testing stuff like that. Please refer to the following bugzilla ticket for more 
detailed information:

Sounds weird but comments in the above bug report might give a better clue why it's happening. Also you might 
want to add there the information about your testing so that it can be reproduced by anyone.

AFAIK there's no distinction currently in NetworkManager
