+ properties that are listed as read-write are
+ changeable. On success a PropertyChanged signal
+ will be emitted.

+
+ void Connect()
+
+ Connect this service. It will attempt to connect
+ WiFi, WiMAX or Bluetooth services.
+
+ For Ethernet devices this method can only be used
+ if it has previously been disconnected. Otherwise
+ the plugging of a cable will trigger connecting
+ automatically. If no cable is plugged in this method
+ will fail.
+
+ This method call will only return in case of an
+ error or when the service is fully connected. So
+ setting a longer D-Bus timeout might be a really
+ good idea.
+
+ Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
+
+ void Disconnect()
+
+ Disconnect this service. If the service is not
+ connected an error message will be generated.
+
+ On Ethernet devices this will disconnect the IP
+ details from the service. It will not magically
+ unplug the cable. When no cable is plugged in this
+ method will fail.
+
+ This method can also be used to abort a previous
+ connectiong attempt via the Connect method.
+
+ Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
+
+ void Remove()
+
+ A successfully connected service with Favorite=true
+ can be removed this way. If it is connected, it will
+ be automatically disconnected first.
+
+ If the service requires a passphrase it will be
+ cleared and forgotten when removing.
+
+ This is similar to setting the Favorite property
+ to false, but that is currently not supported.
+
+ In the case a connection attempt failed and the
+ service is in the State=failure, this method can
+ also be used to reset the service.
+
+ Calling this method on Ethernet devices will cause
+ an error message. It is not possible to remove these
+ kind of devices.
+
+ Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
+
+ void MoveBefore(object service)
+
+ If a service has been used before, this allows a
+ reorder of the favorite services.
+
+ The target service object must be part of this
+ profile. Moving between profiles is not supported.
+
+ Possible Errors: [service].Error.InvalidArguments
+
+ void MoveAfter(object service)
+
+ If a service has been used before, this allows a
+ reorder of the favorite services.
+
+ The target service object must be part of this
+ profile. Moving between profiles is not supported.

This signal indicates a changed value of the given
property.
-Properties string Name [readonly]
+Properties string State [readonly]
+
+ The service state information.
+
+ Valid states are "idle", "failure", "association",

+
+ When error occur during connection or disconnection
+ the detailed information are represented in this
+ property to help the user interface to present the
+ user with alternate options.
+
+ This property is only valid when the service is in
+ the "failure" state. Otherwise it might be empty or
+ not present at all.
+
+ Current defined error code is "dhcp-failed".
+
+ string Name [readonly]
The service name (for example "Wireless" etc.)
This name can be used for directly displaying it in
the application. It has pure informational purpose.
+ For Ethernet devices and hidden WiFi networks it is
+ not guaranteed that this property is present.
+
string Type [readonly]
The service type (for example "ethernet", "wifi" etc.)
string Mode [readonly]
- If the service type is WiFi, then this property is
- present and contains the mode of the network. The
- possible values are "managed" or "adhoc".
+ If the service type is WiFi or Cellular, then this
+ property is present and contains the mode of the
+ network.
+
+ For WiFi services the possible values are "managed"
+ and "adhoc". For Cellular services it describes the
+ network technology. Possible values are "gprs", "edge"
+ and "umts".
+
+ This property might be only present for WiFi and
+ Cellular services.
string Security [readonly]
present and contains the security method or key
management setting.
- Possible values are "none", "wep", "wpa" and "wpa2".
+ Possible values are "none", "wep", "psk" and
+ also "ieee8021x". Alternate values for "psk"
+ can also be "wpa" and "rsn".
+
+ This property might be only present for WiFi
+ services.
+
+ string Passphrase [readwrite]
+
+ If the service type is WiFi, then this property
+ can be used to store a passphrase.
+
+ No PropertyChanged signals will be send for this
+ property. The PassphraseRequired property should
+ be monitored instead.
+
+ This property might also not always be included
+ since it is protected by a different security policy.
+
+ boolean PassphraseRequired [readonly]
+
+ If the service type is WiFi, then this property
+ indicates if a passphrase is required.
+
+ If a passphrase has been set already or if no
+ passphrase is needed, then this property will
+ be set to false.
uint8 Strength [readonly]
Indicates the signal strength of the service. This
is a normalized value between 0 and 100.
+
+ This property will not be present for Ethernet
+ devices.
+
+ boolean Favorite [readonly]
+
+ Will be true if a cable is plugged in or the user
+ selected and successfully connected to this service.
+
+ This value is automatically changed and to revert
+ it back to false the Remove() method needs to be
+ used.
+
+ boolean Immutable [readonly]
+
+ This value will be set to true if the service is
+ configured externally via a configuration file.
+
+ The only valid operation are Connect() and of
+ course Disconnect(). The Remove() method will
+ result in an error.
+
+ boolean AutoConnect [readwrite]
+
+ If set to true, this service will auto-connect
+ when not other connection is available.
+
+ For favorite services it is possible to change
+ this value to prevent or permit automatic
+ connection attempts.
+
+ boolean SetupRequired [readonly]
+
+ If the service is Cellular, then this property
+ indicates that some extra setup steps are required.
+
+ In most cases it is required to fill in the APN
+ details.
+
+ string APN [readwrite]
+
+ If the service is Cellular, then this property

+ array{string} Nameservers [readonly]
+
+ The list of currently active nameservers for this
+ service. If the server is not in READY, LOGIN or
+ ONLINE state than this list will be empty.
+
+ Global nameservers are automatically added to this
+ list. The array represents a sorted list of the
+ current nameservers. The first one has the highest
+ priority and is used by default.
+
+ When using DHCP this array represents the nameservers
+ provided by the network. In case of manual settings,
+ the ones from Nameservers.Configuration are used.
+
+ array{string} Nameservers.Configuration [readwrite]
+
+ The list of manually configured domain name
+ servers. Some 3G networks don't provide correct
+ name servers and this allows for an override.
+
+ This array is sorted by priority and the first
+ entry in the list represents the nameserver with
+ the highest priority.
+
+ When using manual configuration and no global
+ nameservers are configured, then it is useful
+ to configure this setting.
+
+ Changes to the domain name servers can be done
+ at any time. It will not cause a disconnect of
+ the service. However there might be small window
+ where name resolution might fail.
