System update option ignored (roaming)
Settings > System > System updates Yesterday, I switched manually from stable channel to beta channel, the updater immediately started to download the beta update 2025073000 in the background.
Problem : It should not have started to download the update because of the setting "Permitted networks == Not roaming".
Context : I was several hundreds of kms away from the country of my SIM card and the roaming pictogram was present in the top right corner. Wifi was deactivated, and I was out of range of my saved wifi networks. I was connected to a Wifi network 30min before, but at that moment I was on the stable channel.
I was able to trigger the bug 2 times :
- When updating from 2025071900 to 2025072800 beta
- When updating from 2025072800 to 2025073000 beta

It's possible you're using a VPN which is not passing through this information about the underlying network. Our System Updater doesn't appear to have any issue with handling this.
I don't have any VPN. Maybe my telecom provider (Bouygues Telecom FR) is using a VPN or a proxy or whatever in its network when I am roaming in Germany.
