Public bug reported: The task-bar applet showing network connection will not connect to the DSL modem wireless, as it used to do in prior releases.
I tried three different wireless dongles, all with the same result. I'm running the live 17.04 system, and I tried it on three different machines as well. Other than the machine I submitted the bug report on (which also has ethernet connectivity), all of my other machines depend on wireless, so 17.04 is not usable. I tried both Lubuntu 17.04 and Xubuntu 17.04, and both live-systems have the same problem. 1) lubuntu@lubuntu:~$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 17.04 Release: 17.04 2) lubuntu@lubuntu:~$ sudo apt-cache policy network-manager-applet N: Unable to locate package network-manager-applet 3) I expected the wireless to connect, as it has always done in prior releases. 4) It tried connecting for a period of time, then gave up.
