MarkF (az2008) wrote : nm-tray silently fails with bad wifi password; saves connection

Testing Lubuntu 20.04 daily image (2020-03-03).In Live desktop I clicked nm-tray, chose a wifi access point, typed the password incorrectly. Nm-tray silently failed. No msg that the connection failed. It also kept that access point as a "known connection". Clicking that produced no error msg.

I had to right-click nm-tray, edit network connections, and change the password there. Then when I clicked the access point in nm-tray's "known connections" I got a "connected" msg.

That seems problematic that it failed without a msg. And, that it saved a failed connection.
