Bug Description

Enable 802.1x Security on Ethernet connection.
Put authentication mode to PEAP.
Mark to not require certificate.
Enter the login.
Flag the password to ask everytime.

It does not prompt for the password and freezes, sometimes crashes, even after a reboot. Besides when you have an wireless connection with the same secutirity settings it prompts for the password, but the window freezes before showing the widgets.

I have tried to input the password and flag it to save, it connects, I can see the IP via ifconfig, but the tray icon freezes anyway.

This bug only happens with two or more connections configured (one ethernet and another wireless) being at least one of them flagged not to save password.
