If you want this functionality, I think it'd make more sense as a boolean:
HasBeenOnlineWithTheseParameters, or some less ugly name for the same :-)

(I'm not sure that this information is enough, though, since regressions in the
CM can also cause a connection error, so the CM version is another relevant
variable.)
