Package: plasma-widget-networkmanagement
Version: 0.9.0.3-1
Severity: important
Hello,
i am trying desperated to get WLAN working without problems on wheezy.
One time i get a connection, then never again.
I installed the network manager to have a comfortable configuration, but it
seems not to have the correct rights to work.
The scanning for hotspots does not work and when i manually create a WLAN connection and try to save it, it fails with
insufficient privileges (see screenshot).
As you can see here i have access to WLAN functionality on the shell:
root@pc# iwlist wlan2 scan
wlan2 Scan completed :

But automatically it is not configured correct with the WPA key:

This is my current network configuration file:
root@pc:/etc/network# cat interfaces
...
allow-hotplug eth6
iface eth6 inet static
...
auto wlan2
iface wlan2 inet dhcp
wpa-ssid "dd-wrt"
wpa-psk "mysecretpassword"
Why the network manager has not enough privileges?
Any other idea to solve the problem?
Best regards
Karsten

Hi,
Everything seems to point to a configuration issue with network manager and not
with plasma-widget-networkmanagement. In particular, it might be worth
checking if the user belongs to the group netdev that's needed to access the
network manager configurations as a user.
For further support about this and similar issues it would be more time
efficient to use a debian support channel [1], in particular:
- The debian-user-german mailing list [2]
- #debian.de in irc.debian.org for a german speaking general support channel
- #debian in irc.debian.org for an english speaking wheezy support channel
I'm closing this issue as a non issue, I hope this information is useful to
help you solve your problems.
Happy hacking,
