SUMMARY Plasma nm prefers WPA2-PSK security type over WPA3-PSK security type when setting up a new connection to a network that offers connections of both security types. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Set up your home network to enable both WPA3 and WPA2. 2. Open the plasma nm applet and set up a new connection to this network OBSERVED RESULT After successful connection, go into details tab in the plasma nm applet and observe WPA2-PSK as security type. When I remove the connection and set up a new connection again, this time via nmtui, the observed security type after connecting is WPA3-PSK. This indicates to me the bug is not upstream, but in plasma-nm. EXPECTED RESULT Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20220227 KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.91.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 Kernel Version: 5.16.11-1-default (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 16 × AMD Ryzen 7 5700U with Radeon Graphics Memory: 14.4 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD RENOIR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I think I found the problem: https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/networkmanager-qt/-/blob/master/src/utils.cpp#L397 Would like to submit a MR for this.
