Bug Description

Binary package hint: kwifimanager

KWifimanager was unable to detect the dozen or so access points that iwlist scanning listed. If there are different libraries being used, which is correct?

does knetworkmanager show them instead?

Kwifimanager is known to be dodgy, and knetworkmanager tends to work better.

we're no longer installing kwifimanager by default, instead, using knetworkmanager.

Please try that instead, and see if you have more success.
