Description RussianNeuroMancer 2010-03-14 18:12:17 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.4.1)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

KNetworkManager in my case shows this data:
Frequency: 54000 MHz. You know, it's impossible for WiFi. Real frequency of my AP is 2.462 GHz.
Max. speed: 0. I don't know real max speed, but is't not zero.
Bitrate: 2 Mbit/sec. Real bitrate is 54 Mbit/sec (by iwconfig).

It's problem of KNetworkManager?

Kubuntu 10.04.

The monolithic knetworkmanager is umaintained and nobody is fixing bugs in it as far as I know. Please use the plasmoid version instead.
