I'm having a weird problem.
I had to change my WIFI password for work (every 6 months). This time, when I click on the WIFI icon (in KDE's panel) and edit the connection I enter the new password, it does not save. I can click OK or Apply, and if open it immediately after, it shows the old password.
When I click on Apply, the Cancel button remains blue (instead of gray), so I am not sure if it is waiting for something. If I click on OK, it closes the configuration window immediately, but does not save the password (as mentioned above).
It's set to "Store password for this user only (encrypted)", which is what I'd like. I tried to set for "Ask for this password every time" for now, but it also fails. After some time showing "configuring interface", it asks for the password again, even though I am sure the password is correct.
One thing I've noticed is that KWallet does not prompt for the user password as it does sometimes, and as I'd assume it would when saving a new password.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Some info on the system:
