      Most of the bearer management backends use qHash() when calculating an unique identifier. As the identifier is intended to unique identify a network configuration it is expected to be stable and invariant over application runs and system reboots. This is no longer the case as the algorithm used for qHash() has recently changed and is now seeded at application start with random data.

      I suggest removing the use of qHash() and just use the system provided identifier.
