Tony Espy (awe) wrote : New nm-applet Edit Wireless right-click menu item

The sufficient solution that Mauri alluded to in the previous comment is the new "Edit Wireless" menu item that appeared in the latest version of network-manager-gnome 0.66.

This menu item launches a new application which allows the user to edit the saved networks and is also integrated with gnome-keyring.

The interface is a bit too "techie" for an average user, but it allows the user to remove a previously saved network, which in turn will cause NetworkManager to re-prompt for a new key.

It's also possible to edit the saved key, although see my previous note about keys being saved in hex ( blech ), which makes changing keys kinda dicey.
