Bug #1977
3G IuPS is unreliable
100%
Description
When first registering on a 3G network, IuPS data service often does not work right away.
Going to flight mode and back into the network may resolve the issue. Sometimes it takes several of them.
Once showing a website the first time, it seems to work well further on.

See #1818#note-4 (and #1818's attached pcap) indicating a likely solution to this issue: mismatching keystatus.

hmm, it doesn't seem so easy to reproduce a situation where the new_key flag reflects the wrong value.
I do get unreliable behavior, like web browser page failing to load, failing DNS lookups on-and-off, but all the while the new_key flag reflects the actual key status that is transmitted.
It doesn't seem to be as quick a fix as I thought.

So, I learned that the crash is known and comes from changing from 2G to 3G.
Taking care not to do that, I tried the 3G IuPS successfully.
I actually don't see the weird behavior that made me create this issue originally.
It seems that the cause making the IuPS data uplink hickup has indeed been fixed.
lynxis from my side it seems that we can close this, and track the remaining known IuPS problems in their own issues each. Agree?
