SUMMARY The Wi-Fi Security settings tab in the "Wi-Fi & Networking" section of System Settings incorrectly labels some of its settings. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Create a NetworkManager connection with `wifi-sec.key-mgmt` set to `wpa-psk`, which is described by `nmcli` as "WPA2 + WPA3 personal" 2. Open that connection in KDE Settings 3. Change to the Wi-Fi Security tab OBSERVED RESULT Security is described as "WPA/WPA2 Personal" EXPECTED RESULT Security as described as e.g. "WPA2 + WPA3 Personal" or "WPA2/WPA3 Personal" SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora Linux 40 KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.5.0 Qt Version: 6.7.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION This also applies to "wpa-eap", which is labelled by `nmcli` as "WPA2 + WPA3 enterprise", but labelled by KDE as "WPA/WPA2 Enterprise". I spent some time trying to diagnose why my WPA2/WPA3 home network was recognised as a WPA/WPA2 network before realising that `nmcli` had correctly identified it as a WPA2/WPA3 network all along. NetworkManager's docs contain a list of descriptive names for each security mode: https://networkmanager.dev/docs/api/latest/settings-802-11-wireless-security.html The code labelling the network as "WPA/WPA2 Personal" in plasma-nm is here: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-nm/-/blob/758d49eb524fd48151b83ae4735cc043e94fd0bc/libs/editor/settings/ui/wifisecurity.ui#L53
