SUMMARY the option is no longer there to share wifi with qr codes STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Go to the system-tray, 2. click on the network connection button 3. right click on a connected WIFI network OBSERVED RESULT there are only two options, disconnect and configure EXPECTED RESULT there should be a show qr code button there SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.77 Qt Version: 5.15.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I believe fucntionality was was maybe when refactoring or porting as the UI file for it is still on gitlab [here](https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-nm/-/tree/master/applet/contents/ui) under showQR.qml [here](https://phabricator.kde.org/D22457) is also a previous phabricator task
Confirmed on 5.20.4
Created attachment 134875 [details] Here it is That's weird, I see it just fine on git master. Can wither of you confirm with git master/unstable packages?
Another option: do you not have the prison framework? That's what provides QR code functionality. What distro are you using?
I've tried it from kdesrc-build using: source $pathtoprefix/build/plasma-workspace/prefix.sh $pathtoprefix/usr/bin/plasmashell --replace & But when it reloads I still can't see the QR Code in the right-click menu.
I see it in mine when built from source, which means there's some difference between my setup and yours. If you build from source can you please check the cmake output for plasma-nm and make sure that all optional dependencies are installed?

Thanks Antonio. Have you gotten other reports of this?
(In reply to Nate Graham from comment #8) > Thanks Antonio. Have you gotten other reports of this? The problem is not that the QR is not shown when the security type is unknown, that is intentional: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-nm/-/blob/v5.20.5/applet/contents/ui/ConnectionItem.qml#L74 https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-nm/-/blob/v5.20.5/applet/contents/ui/ConnectionItem.qml#L39 The problem is the security type being reported as unknown instead of the real one (WPA2-PSK in my case). This regressed in NM 1.24, bisecting now
Reminds me of Bug 422740.
(In reply to Nate Graham from comment #10) > Reminds me of Bug 422740. Yes, but that one affected all networks so it was more visible. This one only affects the currently connected one. And it's wrong in networkmanager-qt already (AccessPoint::Capabilities)
Bisected to https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/commit/b83f07916a540d482dfabbb13744083b0b6ab8b0 "qdbus --system org.freedesktop.NetworkManager /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/AccessPoint/xx org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.AccessPoint.Flags" used to return 3 before that commit, and returns 0 afterwards. This doesn't match the docs at https://developer.gnome.org/NetworkManager/stable/gdbus-org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.AccessPoint.html, so it seems to be a NM bug
Thanks! Marking as an upstream issue.
FTR, fixed upstream with https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/commit/1d04770002f32d922f71e1bc6c57c96a25ba8fbd
