Description Gunter Ohrner 2011-10-22 07:51:47 UTC
Version:           0.9 (using KDE 4.7.2) 
OS:                Linux

I use Kubuntu 11.10's plasma-widget-networkmanagement package, Kubuntu version number 1:0.9~svngit.nm09.20110610.0c83d8-0ubuntu5.

Is configured to use "secure storage" for managing passwords, and I actively use kwallet for all other KDE applications supporting it. Yet the network management system / plasmoid does not remember my WIFI password (WPA-PSK), everytime I try to connect a dialog with a single password entry text field (below a WIFI protection method drop down) pops up.

Additionally, changing the "Store connection secrets" dropdown box in the settings does not enable the "apply"-button - maybe that's related? The setting I chose is remembered if I click "ok" and reopen the settings dialog, however.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Configure the network management plasmoid to use kwallet. Connect to a WIFI network. Log out of KDE, log in again and connect to the same network again.

Actual Results:  
The WPA credentials will be asked for also in the second try.

Expected Results:  
The password should have been stored, it should not have to be entered every time I connect to a network.
