Description Julian Groß 2024-03-16 08:03:13 UTC

Security type being shown as "none"

SUMMARY
When connected to a wifi network with encryption, going into the settings and pressing "edit", the encryption is not shown.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect to encrypted wifi network.
2. Go to the Plasma Mobile settings
3. Go to the wifi tab
4. Click on "Edit"
5. Click on the settings icon next to the wifi network
6. Notice how the "security type" shows up as "none"

OBSERVED RESULT
It shows up as "none" which suggests that the network isn't encrypted.

EXPECTED RESULT
It should show "WPA3 personal" or similar.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: postmarketOS Edge (updated 2024-03-16)
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0
Qt Version: 6.6.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
In my case, I am using a WPA2/3 network, so the device is using WPA3 personal, which isn't in the list of available options.

Plasma doesn't recognize WPA3 at the moment, I opened https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-mobile/-/issues/336 to track

kcms/wifi: Add WPA3 support
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-mobile/-/issues/336

This implements WPA3 support in the wifi KCM. However, the wifi KCM in general is missing implementations for many things (ex. WPA2/3 enterprise). We really should eventually pursue https://invent.kde.org/teams/plasma-mobile/issues/-/issues/294
