After the last system update in F28 Network Manager is not retaining the wifi

Can we assume you're using GNOME?
If so, when you have the security tab open there is what looks like 2 people on the
right hand side in the password box.
If you click on that there should be 3 choices. What is yours set to?
Thanks Ed, sorry its taken me a while to response, I haven't been on
much recently. I'm actually using KDE. As well as the situation
mentioned above, when I get into KDE I get prompted for my password to
supply to Kwallet, and then I get prompted to enter my Wifi password, at
which point the wifi gets activated and then the firewall get started
for the network adapter. I was using the option 'Store this password for
this user only (encrypted)' which was not retaining it on exit, as a
test I switched to 'Store this password for all users (Unencrypted)'
which seems to be retaining it from the perspective of when I exit and
get back in the password is still there. If the 2nd option has indeed
retained the password, could there be a slight logic error in
networkmanager where 'Store this password for this user only
(encrypted)' seems to be functioning like the option of 'Ask for this
password every time'?
regards,
Steve
