nm-tool shows:
Wireless Access Points(* = Current AP)
*DieAJs: Infra, 00:1C:4A:04:BC:75, Freq 2417 MHz, Rate 54 Mb/s, Strength 41 WPA2
iwlist scan wlan0 shows as well:
IE: IEEE 802.11i/WPA2 Version 1
Group Cipher : CCMP
Pairwise Ciphers (1) : CCMP
Authentication Suites (1) : PSK
Btw. the same with Novell network - it should be WPA Enterprise but shows as WPA-PSK.
Do you have an off-by-one error?

so, the icon for Brezenbeck is wrong, the others look fine.
*** Bug 202864 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Fixed in SVN by r1009937 - fix bugs in detecting WPA 2 only networks and consolidate wireless security detection in one place. There are still some bugs here. Adding the description from the downstream bug. If the connection to a wpa2 eap network fails, knm4 prompts for the secrets, i.e. opens the settings' security tab again. However it does not show the settings for a wpa eap connection but wpa psk. using a current svn-snapshot from Fedora (20090930) I saw the network, clicked on it in knetworkmanager (kde4) and got a window asking for details. That was pre-filled with "wep", but changing it to "wpa2 personal" by hand and entering the secrets worked fine it seems. So maybe the gui is just slightly broken (knows it is encrypted, but not the encryption used)? also see #204113 which sounds related but also is marked as already fixed now Should be fixed by r1042754, please test. With Fedora 19 and KDE 4.10, I witness the same bug - the connection is shown as WPA2 when running "iwlist scan" and "nm-tool" as well as in the settings but the icon in the network management warns the connection is WEP. |
