Bug ID: 455272
Summary: Simplify the interface
Product: plasma-nm
Version: master
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: jgrul...@redhat.com
Reporter: es204904...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
I usually install KDE Plasma to people, and the most frequent complain I get is
that is too hard to connect to wi-fi.
That is, on one hand, because the applet is buggy at this time. The next option
they have the system settings module, which we will talk about here.
Users frequently are unable to figure out the interface. My suggestion is:
- Use simpler linguistics. For example instead of SSID, name it "network name".
- Visually separate common options from advanced ones. The user most of the
time only needs to set the network name and the password field. The rest are
special cases.
- Put those common options in the same tab.
- Automatically change the "connection name" to the SSID if unmodified.
- If possible make more evident that you can rollout the list of nearby
networks, for example, instead of having to manually type the network name.
