Hi Frederick, Ready means that your connection has received full IP configuration (most likely from dhcp). Online is (by default) achieved by ConnMan making an http get request to: #define STATUS_URL_IPV4 "http://ipv4.connman.net/online/status.html" or #define STATUS_URL_IPV6 "http://ipv6.connman.net/online/status.html" Depending on your network speed, and distance to connman.net, this can take a short while. In fact, if you are unlucky with the state of the internet it might even fail completely. This would happen as well if your firewall is blocking outgoing port 80 connections to the internet (I had that rule with a corporate firewall in one company). A service is usable in the Ready state. Although if the online check fails, the top/default service might get "downgraded" and default routes might get deleted. Especially if you have more than one connection available (e.g. ConnMan might fall back to Ethernet). In that case you may end up with just a local subnet route.
