Changing an active connection applies the changes onto the NetworkManager connection, but not on the device. This is because NetworkManager clones the connection when it is applied on a device. This behavior is expected and documented in the NetworkManager documentation [1]. To effectively apply the connection changes onto a device, a reapply operation must be performed. This will make NetworkManager apply the new connection onto the active device without having to disable and re-enable the device. Perform this reapply operation when the Apply button is pressed in the Connection Editor so the changes effectively propagate to the network device.

Reporting Bugs
Before reporting any bugs or opening feature requests, read the communication guidelines.
Bugs should be reported to the GNOME bug tracking system under the product gnome-control-center. It is available at GitLab Issues.
In the report please include the following information:
- Operating system and version
- For Linux, version of the C library
- Exact error message
- Steps to reproduce the bug
- If the bug is a visual defect, attach a screenshot
- If the bug is a crash, attach a backtrace if possible [see below]
How to get a backtrace
If the crash is reproducible, follow the steps to obtain a backtrace:
Install debug symbols for gnome-control-center.
Run the program in gdb [the GNU debugger] or any other debugger.
gdb gnome-control-center
Start the program.
(gdb) run
Reproduce the crash and when the program exits to (gdb) prompt, get the backtrace.
(gdb) bt full
Once you have the backtrace, copy and paste it into the 'Comments' field or attach it as a file to the bug report.
Testing Unstable Settings
It is quite easy to test and give feedback about the development version of GNOME Settings. Just access https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/environments, get the latest version, download it, double-click the file, install and run.
Note that GNOME Settings Flatpak will only work if you are running the latest GNOME version in your host system.
