Description Sarah 2018-08-03 19:24:39 UTC
Preface: I always log into a certain wi-fi network that is in my room. I have the password set to be remembered by the wi-fi manager (The encrypted setting). I also use a VPN and have it set up to automatically connect to it upon establishing a network connection.

What happens:

1) Wi-Fi Manager attempts to connect to network, stalls forever, says 'Waiting for Authorization'
2)Indefinite Wait
3) sudo service network-manager restart is ineffective

What should happen: wi-fi logs in like normal

Workaround:
Go to system settings/kde wallet, create new wallet and press `open wallet`, prompt for wi-fi opens up, enter password, enter password for VPN, connection established. I have to do this every time, and if I did't figure it out, I would be left without an internet connection.

System: Kubuntu 18.04.01 on an HP ENVY 17.

I will upload a video of the problem next time I restart the computer, but the description is accurate.
