    Description

      If the WIFI network changes often it leads to a memory leak, because the network service is not deleted on change:

      void QNetworkSettingsManagerPrivate::handleNewService(const QString &servicePath)

      creates the service:

      QNetworkSettingsService *service = new QNetworkSettingsService(servicePath, this);

      and expects it to be only deleted when QNetworkSettingsManager is destroyed.

      Possible workaround can be:

      bool QNetworkSettingsServiceModel::removeService(const QString &id)
      {
          bool ret = false;
          for (int i=0; i < m_items.count(); i++) {
             if (m_items.at(i)->id() == id) {
                 // workaround
                 m_items[i]->deleteLater();
                 // workaround end
                 remove(i);
                 ret = true;
                 break;
             }
          }
          return ret;
      }
