1 Left-click the applet icon and select Wireless 802.11 (Create Network Connec-
tion). KNetworkManager shows a list of available visible wireless networks,
including details about signal strength and security.
2 To connect to a visible network, select the network from the list and click
Connect. If the network is encrypted, a dialog opens. Choose the type of Se-
curity the network uses and enter the appropriate credentials.
3 To connect to a network that does not broadcast its service set identier
((E)SSID) and therefore cannot be detected automatically, select Connect to
Other Network.
4 In the dialog that opens, enter the ESSID and set encryption parameters, if
necessary.
5 Conrm your changes and click OK. NetworkManager now activates the new
connection.
6 To terminate a connection and to disable wireless networking, click the applet
icon and uncheck Enable Wireless. This can be useful if you are on a plane or
in any other environment where wireless networking is not allowed.
A wireless network that has been chosen explicitly will remain connected as long as
possible. If a network cable is plugged in during that time, any connections that have
been set to Connect Automatically will be connected, while the wireless connection
remains up.
