I don't know the answer to your question offhand, but I suggest providing the following info to narrow down the problem: What make/model is your wireless card? (% lspci -vvv) Do you get any wifi related messages in dmesg? (% dmesg) Did it work with a different OS/distro on the same computer in the past? Which OS? Are any of the other computers running the same setup (Arch w/KDE and NM)? My guess is that if no one else is reporting the same problem, then it is probably a kernel/driver/hardware issue, so knowing the specifics of your wifi card will help a lot. Cheers, Tom
