Screen wakes up all the time to tell me I'm connected [released]

The following issue occurs with latest Aurajoki release since early access phase: When I am on 4G and have mobile data enabled, the screen wakes up all the time to show the "Connected" notification. This happens like every minute and it is very annoying.
There is this related question where it is suggested to disable "Show notifications when device is locked" option in settings. However, this is only a workaround and not a proper solution because:
a) It only works if you have device lock enabled and configured with "No delay" (I prefer to set automatic locking to 10 minutes)
b) If you disable notifications when device is locked, you actually disable all kinds of notifications, even important ones like calls and messages. This is obviously impractical, important notifications should always wake the screen.
c) This behavior has exposed a deeper problem: When in 4G, mobile data keeps getting disabled and re-enabled. I don't know if this is a new problem or it has always been like this and I only found out now because of the new notifications behavior but I believe it needs to be investigated.
Someone reported in this thread their phone getting disconnected every 10 minutes (at minutes 00-10-20-30-40-50 each hour). Could it be the same bug? Could you check the exact times when reconnections occur?

Also it happens only in 4G with mobile data connection. I don't know if it ever stops, usually I'm so annoyed by it that after 2-3 minutes I manually switch to 3G to make it go away.
thisisme ( 2016-09-11 20:55:36 +0200 )editI had this Problem with my new Aqua Fish and Sailfish 2.0.2.51. Everytime when the Connection changes between for Example from 4G to 3G it tooks nearly 20 Seconds or more to change the Connection Mode.During this Switching I had no Connection to Internet and I was not able to call Somebody over the Phone.After udate to Version 2.0.3.11 the Problems are gone. Now the switching between the modes are not noticeable.

thisisme ( 2016-09-11 23:00:29 +0200 )editThis also happens to me, but I'm not on 4G. The strange thing is, it only happens when I'm at my office. It never happens when I'm at my home, so I don't report and just ignore it. If this is a bug, I hope Jolla will fix it.
