Admittedly, I haven't really looked at ConnMan. My assumption, though,
is that a PDP context is not activated by default when ConnMan starts
up. I.e., someone has to request the internet connectivity. Is that
correct?
Connman services have autoconnect property which control if the
connection is automatically created or not.
Activating a context by default would be very bad for power
consumption and standby times, unless both the handset and the network
support CPC.
If I plugin a usb modem on my laptop, I really want to connect it
automatically.
The decision should be up to the user.
And with the autoconnect property the user can control this.
