This example doesn't work here (probaly different python version?):

#!/usr/bin/python3

import dbus

def properties_changed(interface_name, changed_properties,
invalidated_properties):
    print (interface_name, changed_properties, invalidated_properties)

bus = dbus.SystemBus()
obj = bus.get_object("org.freedesktop.NetworkManager",
"/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager")
iface = dbus.Interface(obj, "org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties")
iface.connect_to_signal("PropertiesChanged", properties_changed)

gives:

    iface.connect_to_signal("PropertiesChanged", properties_changed)
