Did you loaded the kded module?
You have to do it manualy for now.

Type in console:
kquitapp knetworkmanager
qdbus org.kde.kded /kded loadModule networkmanagement

No. This module shoud loaded automatically in KDE 4.4.2 when this plasmoid start?

Yes, it's help to see connections list in plasmoid, but wired list include saved wireless networks and network named "No such interface 'org.kde.networkmana...". Looks like another bug.
Comment 5 Aleksis 2010-04-04 02:08:53 UTC
No - it isn't loaded automatically with network management plasmoid, although it differs between distributions.

The 'Connections' list shows all your saved connections + all available wireless networks when 'Show more' is clicked, I think.

There is any chance to give this information to end user or make possible to automatic start this module if plasmoid launched? Even user don't know about loading kded - they can't use this plasmoid, right?

But, you know, by user side list of wired networks must include only wired networks, or this list must be renamed to "All networks".

The plasmoid is disabled because it was in pretty bad shape and buggy. It is in quite usable and stable state now. 
NetworkManager allows only one client to manage it's connections so it was this plasmoid or KNetworkManager tray application. 

I can't replicate your problem with lists showing wrong.
Are you using plasmoid from svn?

You mean kded?

> I can't replicate your problem with lists showing wrong.
Here you mean this bug title or showing wireless connections in the wired connections list?

> Are you using plasmoid from svn?
Np, 4.4.2 from Ubuntu Lucid repo.

Showing wireless connections in the wired list - it seems that it has been fixed in recently - only wired connections are listed in wired section.
